Sadly the extended out of state family seems to like FB, and I try to follow science/math twitter.
As you get older, something in you clicks, that you realize that time spent being angry, or combative, reduces the time you have for enjoying things (family, life, etc.).
Your time on earth is a zero sum game. Maximize its utility, maximize your enjoyment, minimize your negativity (e.g. outrage of the day on social media). Your life will be better.
Even better (imo) is going beyond the maximization maxim and realise the “beauty” of the analog, a world you directly see, hear, touch. Just existing without a specific goal, which is indeed similar as a vacation / holiday. However people seem to reserve the “no goal” mindset only on vacation, but you could also integrate it into your life.
