    Going no contact is a lot easier than it sounds: the biggest issue is “them” not respecting your new boundaries.

      And delete your Facebook account. It’s just generally better for your mental health, it aids in stopping the cycle of billionaires feeding everyone information by whoever pays them. And then it stops unwanted contact from family. They can still post about you, but they’re screaming into an empty void of data centers at that point
