Thank you for posting this. Restored a little bit of faith in humanity for me. It just felt like people were being needlessly cruel to someone who is clearly struggling.

that's the question, ain't it? Telling people to just suffer through terrible therapy probably ain't the answer

For all the "just go to therapy", what's the best way for me to accept your payment for this? Paypal? venmo? ko-fi?

I know I personally don't have anything near perfect control.

I am speaking for myself. My concern is that when I read these articles, the authors often seem to be speaking for more than themselves. It seems as though they are projecting an unhealthy addiction on all members of society. I see that a

I don't mean that at all. That's the point. I happen to not use any of those services you listed, but I do use discord to communicate with friends, and I enjoy listening to podcasts/audiobooks for entertainment. It'

I'm sorry for your loss. I'm not trying to hammer on you for that. I hope you feel better soon.

Just because it's obvious to many that you need therapy doesn't mean that any who notice are capable or willing to give it.

I can't hardly be bothered to check email when it's relevant to do so. If the people I care to talk to are in the room with me at the time, I don't need to get on my phone. That's not always the case. Sometimes I will st

Unfortunately, I have neither the proper information nor interest to dig into that specifically. My best recommendation is to look into why I might have said that, and decide if you care at all what I thought. If so, take actions to chang

Amusingly to me, I think the opposite.

You may be right about many things you said, but this comes off as though you've got a complex about something.

I feel like I have read this same article two dozen times, each by a different author. The internet and I grew up together; it's nearly always been a part of my life. I use the internet every day for several hours. My career involves

I'll be honest, I didn't expect the article about the anti-intellectualization of our culture to be veiled apologetics for Joe Rogan. It's not censorship to choose not to spend every moment discussing the basest topics that

Do the moderators engage when someone says "Dude, that was fucking sick!"? I'm just saying, I'm not surprised that a moderated server is more, uh, moderated, compared to an unmoderated server. I'm not sure the indiv

You certainly are.

I originally assumed you were a dumbass here, not a smartass. well played.

Sorry, I agree with it being relevant. I just meant that it was not what I found uninteresting.

Oh, are you simply existing here? Nothing else? I am positive you are not blind to the parallels between your current actions and the actions of which you claim to be ashamed. I imagine the distinctions matter more to you than the similari

Your very first words to me were an attempt at an insult, so please save the crocodile tears from having your hypocrisy mentioned. I accused you of bias and reactionary tendencies, although I was intending anyone who reacts to the existence

What you have to say is very interesting. However, it is not the content of the article.

It's not the actions that we need to address, just the number of people doing them?

I thought you believed truth and evidence were not necessary when sharing an opinion? What changed your opinion so quickly? Is it only necessary because I disagree with you? "my biggest gripe with social media. There is no room for nu

by cindarin 5y ago
I am ignoring nothing. It is obvious that the author is stating that social media causes breakdowns into unruly mobs. I disagree with that sentiment. The author and I have differing opinions. However, the author decided to post a longform a

There's no analysis here. There's no detail whatsoever; those are intentionally omitted, supposedly to protect the readers from being bored. Instead, the blogger offers only opinion with no support at best, and falsehoods present

by cindarin 5y ago
I don't understand these posts. Why must the world at large censor themselves so an author can demand everyone see her work as perfection without hearing any other opinion? Why are the various, discordant voices considered "socia

I appreciate that you provided sources and yet the conversation seems to be focused on just your baseless conjecture.
