"Social media associate" sounds like a particularly odious job to me, given that I can only stand a maximum of a few minutes on platforms like Facebook before leaving in disgust.

Ads everywhere.

I read an article yesterday about how Samsung is using the built-in screen on newer refrigerator models to push ads to people in their kitchens (US consumers only, at this point). Ugh.

From time to time I consider going back to a flip phone. But of course I cannot <sigh>--can't get the hook out of my lip. My former colleague still uses only a flip phone, refuses to get a "smart" phone, even as everyone in his family has one.

I permanently deleted my Facebook account a couple of weeks ago. I was surprised to see that kind of a salary for the Poetry Foundation, though.
