Socializing isn't high on my priority list, and most of it is planned a week ahead of time. I try to check my email once a day, but that's not always an option. If they don't show, I don't give them grief, and don't sweat it. My commitment to being phone free means I have to accept that some people just won't go to the extra effort it takes to keep in touch. The folks that really burn my biscuits are the ones that are incredulous I'm not on Facebook. If after telling them exactly why they shouldn't be on Facebook (Cambridge Analytica and the Trump/Johnson psyops), if they still don't get it, I generally avoid them.
