I need to be very careful about going on certain networks that seem to have a bias.
No one cares what you ate for breakfast. Unless it's something really spectacular, don't tweet me your breakfast, I don't care.
I do use social media as a gateway into my personal life, but only to a certain extent. When I don't want to, I pull the blinds down.
There is a certain line that I draw for myself, when it comes to what to post and what not to on social media.
I'm too busy to block everyone on Twitter.
I actually have Robert Kardashian blocked from my Instagram.
In the digital age, we filter forward instead of filtering out. As a result, all that material is still available to us and to others to filter in their own ways, and to bring forward in other contexts.
I'm very specific about what I put out on social media about myself. But that's also why I like social media: because it feels like the only thing that I have to control my own image.
We who curate our Twitter feeds and Facebook walls understand that at least part of what we're doing publicly, 'like'-ing what we like, is trying to separate ourselves from the herd.
It is possible to assemble a narrative for yourself, brokenly, on social media, only seeing what you want to look at.
I am not the kind of person who narrates every aspect of my life on social media; it's about posting things that are important to me.
Even on Facebook, like, I wouldn't share everything with my friends, because that's obnoxious.
Even if you don't think you filter your life on social media, by its very nature you're only showing part of yourself.
