🚨 Stop giving smartphones to your kids! 🚨

The numbers are truly shocking:
(a) ~60-70% of women who were exposed to smartphones before the age of 10 experience mental health issues as adults
(b) ~45-50% of men who got exposed to smartphones before the age of 10 also face similar challenges later in life. (2/5)

I urge parents to resist the temptation of handing over a phone to kids always - while crying, or eating food etc.
Instead, encourage real-world interactions, outdoor activities & hobbies.

Let's understand what dopamine is.
Dopamine is a neurotransmitter in the brain that is associated with pleasure and reward.
Many modern activities, such as browsing social media, playing video games, and binging TV shows, release dopamine in the brain at high levels.

Many modern activities, such as browsing social media, playing video games, and binging TV shows, release dopamine in the brain at high levels.
We are caught in a constant need for stimulation and gratification that these activities provide.
Breaking news, new videos, Insta reels, YT shorts, twitter feed and associated likes/comments provides a dopamine kick.
This leads to dopamine addiction.

Seit einigen Wochen gibt es einen # der Aufmerksamkeit erhält und damit endlich einmal den #Themenkomplex #Armut bei einer größeren Gruppe von Menschen als Fragestellung ankommen lässt.
Dies könnte erst einmal als positiv erlebt werden.

Doch die Plattform #Twitter hat sich verändert und der Raum für Zwischentoene, für den Austausch von Gedanken, für die Begegnung von verschiedenen Perspektiven ist seit 2 Jahren massiv unter Druck.

... begeistert dabei durch die Tipps zu wischen, was man alles machen könnte während das Handy geblockt ist ("Papa umarmen" "Musikinstrument spielen") und jetzt erklingt hier nach 3 Monaten Pause die Zauberharfe. 🥰

Little did I know while co-hosting the #DHARTITwitterConf earlier this year, that online academia would be a new “normal.”Privileged to be awarded a NEH fellowship to be part of the #NEHNetResearch institute. Amazing work by the organizers and instructors at UCF in setting it up.
1/n Beginning today till the last day of the workshop (June 5), I will try articulating my thoughts (rants?) and perceptions on digitality and Humanistic inquiry on/through the internet in the series of tweets on this thread. #NEHNetResearch
After hundreds, maybe thousands, of Twitter interactions today, the valiant poetry host of #TopTweetTuesday Dominic Weston @Limescale has been carried away from the @blackboughpoems arena with all digital access removed #hero #wheresthecape #legend #digitaldetox
@Limescale - did you keep a count of how many poems there were 😮
a 💯 poems easily!
Happy Sunday! I came to do my weekly #SundayReads roundup but truth is, I've obsessively read #ToniMorrison tributes, and since @wellreadblkgirl has already done a beautiful job of collecting them, I'll just share that. (Thanks @EverjoiceWin for flagging)

All the #ToniMorrison tributes have not just moved me; they've got me wondering why we tend to celebrate our icons only when they're no longer here to feel our love. Looking forward, I'll be celebrating my #Afrifem sheroes on Eyala while they're still alive and well.
But for now, I'm using a much-needed family vacation as a chance to take a break from social media. I hear it's called a #digitaldetox. Or #selfcare 🤷🏾♀️
I'm hoping to rest and reflect, but I'll mostly be fuming over the SCAM that is family vacation for mothers...
