but it has become this... thing.

It's very appropriate to call Instagram now.... a thing. The site just became something to post bragadacious, fake rich lifestyle photos, people wanting to become meme themselves, or scantily clad girls looking for attention for themselves if not for their OnlyFans.

bragadacious. I learneded a new english today.

Err I mean. Obviously I already knew the word and it's meaning, and even how to say it. I know a lot of words. People always comment on how many words I know. Im just really smart, to be honest.

I find it useful for finding local events where I live, updates from local businesses and newspapers.. it's also cool for following artists or bands I care about.

Idk, it's in a weird space between facebook, what twitter used to be and tiktok. It can be useful if you curate your feed right 🤷‍♂️
