When I started collecting links and sharing them (early 2022), I used to split things up into categories by drug and/or addiction (not all drugs are addictive, like psychedelics). I’d have alcohol 🍺, psychedelic πŸ„, and other drug πŸ’Š roundups where I’d share articles by those specific categories if I had a lot of them that week.

Then, I started adding technology/social media into that mix πŸ“±, and eventually, I collapsed them all into one category (so you might see πŸ’ŠπŸΊπŸ“± next to each other). The point isn’t the format I used, but how natural it is to group certain types of addictions, drugs, objects, or behaviors together.1 Put a pin in that.
