I really need to figure out how to be present more with my kids and not on my phone as much. Because even when I’m aware of this and put the phone down, my mind wanders to things I want to look up on my phone when I’m done playing.

Problem is, most of the stuff I do on my phone is… not terrible? I’m checking out this site, the good Marxist subs on Reddit, informative news channels on Telegram, and generally stuff that improves my knowledge and understanding of the world around me. It would almost be easier if I was just into Candy Crush or something, because then I’d know my time was truly wasted on my phone.
