short form video content is destroying our brains, collectively. It won’t always be this way, though. we are lost in the sauce. there needs to be a revolution. something that brings it to a head to end. It’s really bad guys

the revolution is happening one of the things that convinces me of this is the proliferation of new "dumbphones" — non-smartphones that are usable for real life — like the Lightphone 3

I find myself getting annoyed if a video on Instagram is longer than I anticipated it would be. Which is stupid because if I like the content, why do I want it to be so short?

Hypernormalisation. The government, financiers and technological utopians use short form social media to shrink our attention spans to establish a simpler "fake world" for the benefit of large corporations and is kept stable by neoliberal govts. this is why social media and younger folks are so focused on identity politics rather than forming a coalition against the ultra wealthy and effectuating any real change. conquer and divide is their strategy and its working sadly. idk if we will ever recover.

An entire generation decimated by an inability to think and with the taste of a facebook grandma. It’s only going to get worse. The only solution is the hasty construction of a rigorous social taboo against it.

with AI and short form video being pushed down our throats there is room for counter culture. maybe im naive but i think authenticity will become even more valuable. not everything needs to be ironic or highly edited. people will always crave real.

I just saw an AI news report (disclosed as such, but), it was almost completely indiscernible from a real video. This is truly the last time in our lifetimes we’ll be able to know what‘s real and what‘s not when online. Remind your friends, tell your parents, especially educate the older people in your lives to take everything they see online with a pinch of salt. This will be used to divide us further and manipulate us, etc. It already is, but it’s only getting more convincing.

to answer your Q: I recommend four calendar cafe by Cocteau twins in terms of passion. its a very cohesive album & you won’t be able to make out lyrics—which helps to get lost into the other person
