You don’t have to live in public by Austin Kleon
It seems ridiculous to say, but 2013, the year I wrote the book, was a simpler time. Social media seemed much more benign to me. Back then, the worst I felt social media did was waste your time. Now, the worst social media does is cripple democracy and ruin your soul.
A lot of think about and digest in this one, and maybe a little bit of hyperbole at points, but there is a lot to like as well.

Saw that this morning as well and have been thinking about my public life.
I am thinking through what I want to be private and what to post as well. It was a good read, at the least, and is making me reconsider some things.
