At those times I'm really glad I prefer my desktop over my phone. When I get up and leave, I'm way less likely to check social media. (Granted, nowadays social media for me is just YouTube and Lemmy, but... you know.)
It's a great MP3 player though. And gameboy.

Cutting out socials was the best move on my part. I’ve only got Lemmy, Snapchat which I only use for messaging, Instagram which I only really use to follow bands and message, and YouTube

Cutting out socials
Lists four socials
Sorry, I know what you mean, it was just funny.

Its also a recording device in case of being a victim of police brutality or racist karen harassment, preferrably with auto cloud backup (or livestream).

Elon is one of the biggest sacks of shit on the face of the planet, but he wasn’t wrong when he said people have become cyborgs. Everyone voluntarily plugged into a hivemind that exists to sell us shit we don’t need and manipulate our emotions to keep us engaged.
We voluntarily became the Borg. We hard wired ourselves into an ever-present stream of voices that kills critical thinking and independent thought. And now we’re living in the world created by a river of ignorance everyone drowns in.

I want to go back to being TNG Borg who were all equal and didn't have a queen

There are other people that have made the cyborg point than Elon. It's a relatively common sentiment

"Spare battery"? What year is this XKCD from? Pre-2012?

A power bank could also fill the same role, albeit external

I carry my phone when I am out as literally for emergency if I need to be contacted. In over 21 years since I have been using mobile phones, the number of times I have been contacted for emergencies has been-- zero. Yup, that is how important mobile phone is to me, it's always a "just in case" emergency device.
I'm being sarcastic on my comment but thankfully i have not been contacted nor have to contact anyone for any emergencies.

I'm reading this while out on a walk, i feel attacked

Walks go hard with headphones and music though.

I mostly carry it as a pedometer.

Sometimes? Even when I was young, the Computer RoomTM is where I spent most of my day.
I was never rich enough to afford a whole room for a computer
Maybe they mean back when computers where big as rooms?
You can still achieve this by pretending the WiFi only exists in one room in your house and behaving according to it. Or rather going into airplane mode anywhere outside that room.
