a surprising surprise
bye bye Instagram I guess
Like most people I started the new year thinking about what I wanted my year to look like in 2026.
The big huge one for me was slowing down so that I could enjoy my sweet life with greater abundance and in tandem reexamining my 10+ year relationship with my phone.
Phone apps have been off loaded, parental controls for social media (set by me for me) engaged, and I’ve been vibing out in the serene pleasures of boredom.
Anywho, this is mostly all to let you know that while I’ve been rocking out, my Instagram account was hacked - password/email changed and I hit a dead end in recovering it so I don’t have access to @nesst.shop anymore. Classic, lol.
I had planned on occasionally checking in there to say whats up, this is what I’ve been up to, etc but now that won’t be happening. And I guess( ?!so silly to have to say this), if things get weird on my IG account, it is not me.
So who knows, maybe you’ll occasionally get some updates from me on Substack this year?
I’ll never be completely analog and probably won’t return to a flip-phone as much as i’d like to, though I do recommend turning off notifications on your phone - that freedom is intoxicating.
