I was born in 1985, so no, and I can’t help being glad of that.
I got into it in my late teens but can’t think I gained much from this. I do find it quite useful now but I understand that it’s a tool rather than something I live by; that the sabbath was made for man, not man for the sabbath.
I downloaded the app and it pisses me off so much I uninstalled it. I’m sticking to website only!
It used to be late September and early October but in the last few years, climate change has brought torrential rain at that time of year.
I think it still is this time of year, but only on the dry days, which are a minority now.

My last act would be to shout incoherently at my enemies, while eating herbal tablets.
I went back here today, for the first time in over six years!

I’ve had a good morning cycling and am now going to Ford Green for history weekend.
Despite the rain, it’s a good day and you can see it here (the last three posts are all reblogs of my old posts but I went back to all of them today).

I support it because children should have the chance to be children without corporate advertising, self-harm, cyber bullying, anorexia, porn and pervy old men ‘chatting’ to them.
At the age of around 11, children are old enough to walk/cycle to school with their friends or alone, so they could be given a basic phone (not ‘smart’) with which to call or text parents in an emergency. Of apps and ‘social’ media, they have no need until they’re at least 16, by which time I’d hope they would be grown up enough not to overuse them.
Trouble is, parents are also glued to their phones so trying to limit their children’s screen time won’t always be taken seriously!!
