Everyone on Earth doesn't need to know every single thing that's going on on the planet in real-time 24 hours a day either. 99.999 % of everything that goes on in life is none of our business.

...they might as well be on drugs as walking around with their heads down staring at their phones.

I don't think this revolution in personal electronics is making the portion of the population that is too young to know the difference better people.  It has basically made every single thing you read or see now of suspect credibility. It's dumbed-down an entire generation of our species and has given criminals, terrorists and predators a way of networking globally.

Running face-first into hornets while I'm mowing the 'lawn' is as bad as my life gets. That's the level of trauma and oppression we're dealing with. But that's pretty bad.

If they had youtube in the 90's, I'd have to be in like the witness protection program or something where I had to assume a new identity for my own protection. I was not specifically renown for being politically correct...or even correct.

I eat Benadryl if I get stung by wasps. I crush it up or empty the capsules into a glass of water - like 4 of them- and slug it down like a shot of whiskey. Then I go to sleep for 2 days. It works for that.

We drank a lot and smoked pot. But that's about it. We didn't have camera phones either. Good thing. I would have been so so cancelled. My little cafe would have been burned out by an angry mob.   However.....none of this....


"Doctors and agencies have been warning people about the so-called "Benadryl Challenge" since 2020,

Swymeler said the 2020 TikTok trend encouraged social media viewers to take high doses of over-the-counter allergy medicine containing diphenhydramine. The "challenge" was to fight the medication's sedating effects to "experience a high and hallucinations."

....officials confirmed three children died from diphenhydramine overdoses."

I was taking journalism classes at the University of Michigan in the 80's and we didn't even have electric typewriters. You had to hit the keys with a GD hammer just to make a letter show up on the page.

AI is so we don't have to think now. I don't remember if we even had calculators in high school. We learned how to do that in our heads. We sure as shit didn't have internet. We had to look things up and read books. We had to learn how to write complete papers instead of texting. Machinists didn't sit at desks. I knew how to finish concrete and weld when I was like 12.

There's a tornado watch...that's an empty promise. I wouldn't mind seeing a tornado. Does that wipe away your credit card debt somehow?

If it gets your house it can max your CC debt, even after insurance.

Trust me, you don't want any part of that

BTW, go video everything you own, right now, and store that vid someplace safe.
