Whoa, that website has a -5 intellect drain aura.

Like Voyager II leaving the solar system, humans passed Idiocracy and kept going. At current velocity, is it possible this is a papyrus tabloid headline from 25 years in the future?

But you no longer trust those 100 comments on reddit are coming from humans. So the magic is dead. Gone. Are you calling out a problem you see here or feeling nostalgia for something you no longer have? One perspective is that the little bit you get here isn't a failure to recapture the magic, but the most of it you will get ever again. The internet will only continue to be less free from here on out. The pre-unleaded generation in power is going to spitefully force us to empathize with their eternal postwar fever dream. Try not to yearn for the ~~1950s~~ early 2000s the rest of your life.

It's 2025; if you're gonna make a comment like that, descend from thy perch and guide us down the beaten-off path. Do I go to Samsung and ask for a flip phone? I know they have one they would l🤑ve to sell me. Are you also someone who thinks I should avoid 5G? Do you have a dumb phone make/model you recommend? Is disconnecting from society the only way? Do you only talk via pigeon or smoke during solstice or blót?

That's a good perspective reminder for me. The shit-throwing tactics are supposed to demoralize us and make us apathetic when we need to show up.
