People my age remember the arrival of the internet. We remember the internet getting bigger and faster. People 25 and under, however, have been dealing with the same parasitic brain-death doom-scroll applications their entire adult lives. Only regression and exploitation

I think that the pandemic has exacerbated two very destructive, already-existing tendencies in modern life: 1. To focus all your "productive" energy on self-improvement, rather than engagement in the world, and 2. To live online. For this reason, it must come to a definitive end
