Protect your mind from becoming public property.

A mind becomes public property slowly, one small surrender at a time. You let the feed decide what you think about, the group chat decide what you feel, the loudest opinion decide what you consider reasonable. Nothing is taken from you by force. You hand it over in exchange for the mild comfort of being in the conversation.

Notice how much of what occupied your head today was actually chosen by you. Pick one input this week that you consume out of habit rather than interest, and go a few days without it. See whether your own thoughts get louder in the space that opens.
