Hey JP, a very thoughtful and thought-provoking post, thanks!
And there it is, the choice, the struggle to stay connected with an unrealistic platform that has "rules" of perceived engagement.
Sure, if you're doing this social media thing 24/7, knock yourself out, get the latest AI prompts, the fancy pictures, do the podcasts, the live streams.
However, if you have a 9-5 and a family, then do the best you can on social media or whatever platform you have chosen to express yourself.
Family is most important, and whatever you have to do to maintain the 9-5.
Social media will be here longer than the current people on whatever platform.
When you, I, or anyone is gone off the face of this planet, no one will really care on social media.
Our families may recite snippets of a blog at our funerals or watch a YouTube video that may live forever on the net after we are gone....maybe.....for sure, social media will easily forget
Of course, everyone/most people are very supportive, genuinely, to the extent social media can be.
Wow, this is such a real and vulnerable piece. It really creates the imagery of the battle in the mind about presence and balance. Know this ... comment in your time. Continue to be authentic. Whether it is in 2 hours or 5 days later. When you create a structure that respects your time, there is a peace that settles the mind. Those who know you understand the challenge of building something new while working full-time.

Answer the BBQ question, late or never.
It shows you are realistic, authentic, just YOU.
