Pop punk (but esp. this album) makes me feel so nostalgic for the early 2000s; This was an integral part of my middle school experience to the point where I can probably sing all of these songs in my sleep

fall out boy is one of those few bands that i've always been appreciative of over the years, so it's always so hard to pick a favorite.
one of the first songs i ever found on my own in 6th grade was This Ain't A Scene, It's An Arms Race my dad pirated it to our family itunes account.
otherwise, the songs i've loved the most are all from "From Under the Cork Tree," mostly being XO, I Slept With Someone In Fall Out Boy And All I Got Was This Stupid Song Written About Me, and Get Busy Living Or Get Busy Dying (Do Your Part To Save The Scene And Stop Going To Shows). i <3 fall out boy

loved this when it first came out. listened again and it's quite literally aged so so so finely. the 80s pop references are nuts

My steps:
1. Shut my phone down, hide it in my room, and lock the door so it's a pain in the ass to get to.
2. Be bored, and sit in the boredom for like 7-10 minutes (MINIMUM)-- once you're bored see what your brain gravitates to beyond The Screen (is it doodling? is it playing guitar? is it writing?)
3. Find the little thing your brain latches on to, and start doing it! Even if it's something goofy like "Just Dance youtube videos" to dance to LOL this is you, deliberately following your brain's natural curiosity & interest
And then rinse and repeat however you like <3 Once you get accustomed to the smaller, more gratifying feel good activities, social media starts to feel too overwhelming to even pick back up again-- you'll be reaching for it less and less
(a final aside: I am of the major belief that creativity & imagination is critical to creating a better reality to live in, because it shows that you're capable of leaning into what "doesn't exist", and are courageous enough to imagine and build a reality that defies the status quo. but that's just me LOL)
