Could I interest you in everything all of the time?

Apathy's a tragedy and boredom is a crime!

Anything and everything, all of the time!

[–] GlitterInfection@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

I don't care. Next!

[–] Anticorp@lemmy.ml 6 points 2 years ago

Everything, everywhere, all at once, you say?

The cops hunting people for sport is not exactly that far-fetched...

Neither is the kitten. I don't see your point

Thankfully there's enough content on Lemmy now that I was able to unsub from the most of the left panel type subs, no doom in my scroll thanks

Same. I just don't get enjoyment out of constant outrage. Our brains aren't built to be exposed to that 24/7, and I don't think it's healthy.

I agree with the brain part. But I'm also glad there are a lot of people and communities here discussing things other platforms shy away from, or outright shun. Hard pills to swallow those topics are, but nevertheless makes me feel more sane seeing there are people not gobbling up any mainstream rhetoric all the time.

I'm realizing that Steve Huffman ruining reddit has a major silver lining for me, in that I'm on social media considerably less and as a result there's been a lot less doom in my life- and it's been great :) thanks spez! JK, still fuck you spez

I made it about halfway through this novel you wrote.

TLDR please

Heh, Star Trek meme.

The problem arises when a cartoonist takes on something serious. It puts those two compartments together and rips out your heart, like First Dog on the Moon did today.

Shoutout to https://botsin.space/@rabbiteveryhour for keeping my feed at maximum fuzziness.
