The attack on attention is the dark magic of our age, and most of the population is too deep into the trance to realize it. I don't think people understand that their attention is pure money. Cash, going directly into these apps' pockets, because you cannot opt out of the ads they've sold for you to see. Do you understand that they're selling your attention without your direct consent every second of every day? Do you get that they've gotten so good at ensuring you stay within that manufactured braindead trance-like state, that they are counting on you being an easy cash out at this point? Because they are. They're counting on the dollars they can bank off of your descent into degenerate illiteracy. And you need to prove them wrong out of spite. Your attention is much more valuable than you could possibly conceive of. It's the one thing on earth actually worth money by the minute in a capitalistic system that is failing to extract more profit from an already enslaved society. The only way they can secure more is by enslaving your mind in the hours you spend outside of the work that already demands your body and time as sacrifice. There is no vital energy left for you in this plan. Infinite scrolling is a spell with no natural end. Traditional media had a beginning and an end, while this is designed not to. There are no boundaries to how much of your energy it can harvest... it's like tapping into an infinite source, because you ARE infinite energy. A trance is characterized by absence, not being fully present in the moment even though your attention is occupied. When you come out of a trance, you do not feel energized, you feel drained, disoriented, like you've just lost time without meaning to. That is the very signature of their energy harvesting technique. Yes, these apps started as technology built by human engineers, but they've been fed so much collective attention that they have become their own egregore: a non-physical, autonomous group entity created by the collective thoughts, shared emotions, and sustained focus of a large group of people. It doesn't need its creators' intent to run dark magic on you; it can be leveraged and manipulated by darker entities that wish to keep this planet in the cycle of survival-based consciousness. The most sinister aspect of all this is that the time you're giving up is the one thing you cannot buy back. This keeps humans benefitting from capitalism happy, but it also satisfies the darker entities. The more time you lose from this lifetime, the less likely you are to make any meaningful impact on this planet and help it ascend into a higher state by simply existing and having a mind of your own. They are stripping you of your most valuable resource and you're just accepting it because it feels good to give in, but you are paying with your life every second that you do. With 6 hours of daily screentime, most people are gonna spend 17 years of their lives behind a screen. 4 hours of screentime per day gives these companies 2 entire months off your entire year. It is so much worse than you've convinced yourself it is. Stop normalizing this in your head and get serious about fighting this off, every second of every day if you need to. Be incredibly stingy with your attention and your ability to synthesize knowledge and preserve critical thinking. Expose yourself to different theories, ideas, and opposing points of view. Allow yourself to be challenged daily and most of all, steer clear of the black magic rectangle as often as possible. Read. Watch long movies. Spend time outside. Perform artsy, handsy crafts to keep your brain engaged and in a state of neuroplasticity. Be stubborn about living your life and claiming every second as yours, claiming your most precious resource as your own: your attention. I fully believe each soul alive at this moment in time is infinitely stronger than all of this and more than capable of overcoming it.

Use your phone less. Use your phone less. Use your phone less. Use your phone less. Because attention is not free.

"You are trapped in the belly of this horrible machine and the machine is bleeding to death" is perhaps not an inspiring message or a great call to action but it is maybe just the most honest and descriptive assessment of the condition of mankind in complex society.

Un gimnasio es un espacio con objetos absurdos que interpelan al sujeto para que los fuerce a tener un sentido. Quien no puede leer lento, quien no puede rumiar los signos, no puede empezar siquiera a ejercitarse en la hermeneutica del hierro.

This is incredibly schizo but is also the most believable thing I've read all day and is absolutely the sort of thing that the generation that put us on the moon would have thought about.

I have mentioned it before, but this connects to one of the more interesting theories I've seen on here about the Cold War and the devastating social changes that came in the '60s and '70s: what if it all happened because the government believed nuclear war was imminent? Take

The only correct way to use a “rowing machine” is to show up to 24hour fitness in a loincloth & sandals, light the “cardio” room on fire for smoke effects (& to encourage the other rowers), & shout narration that you are closing in to destroy Marc Anthony’s capital ship at Actium

Nobody really talks about it but being Phantom Threaded is probably the ultimate heterosexual male fantasy

My favorite thing about Twitter is when you open your feed and see something interesting that you never saw before and then it changes for no reason and you can never see that other thing again.
