For those off social media, how do you stay in the loop?

I’ve been off social media for a while now and it’s been wonderful for my mental health. I’ve successfully moved all my friendships and plans to text and group chats, and everything’s going pretty great.

There’s one problem though; which is that I just generally feel “out of the loop” when it comes to trends, social things, slang, etc…

I get regular news through The New York Times or The New Paper, but there’s nothing like that for things coming out of social media.

It can just feel lonely sometimes. And feeling part of the “out group” aint so fun. Any thoughts?
