Short form videos are fucking digital opium. I hate it. I deliberately do not have instagram/YT/tiktok accounts with the intention of avoiding it, but I have repeatedly found myself watching a short vid sent from a friend before I find myself scrolling and then snapping back to attention, 40+ minutes later, like some Jekyl/Hyde shit. I imagine it’s what having an epileptic seizure is like. I just lose track of time completely and I hate it.
I never agreed with Bradbury about how TV is so bad so forth, but I am with him now. Shit’s addictive
yeah, definitely blame the individual people using wifi for damaging the climate and not the companies / billionaires whose decisions actually effect things at a substantial level. it’s 100% the homeless guy using wifi at the library who is going to cause the water wars in a few years. /s
No, the lesson is not to be filth and blackmail your partner(s).
I sincerely doubt it’s a crime to upload your own nudes to OnlyFans and then tell your abusive ex-partner’s family, “hey, this is a link to the nude pictures your child threatened to post online if I broke up with them”. My grandma has accidentally shared worse things with me than that
Gosh, it’s like every time some big genuine shitshow is about to be revealed, we get to enjoy some surface-level bullshit distraction. What are the odds?
Nah, those are rookie numbers. Gotta pump those numbers up. And they have a whole playbook ready for it this time, so things are gonna get interesting and tragic sooner than later.
Bonus points that if we make through, we can look forward to new exciting wars about water resources and inhospitable climate problems
