today I spent way too much time on the internet and I got into some really petty argument in a comment chain somewhere. And then I asked myself, why do I care? Why do they care? All of this shit is so stupid and irrelevant.
this sounds really edgy but pop culture especially with the assistance of the internet feels so synthetic and absurd, even pervasive in a sense. I'm sure some smart dude can connect all the dots with some analysis. After this Im just left with a really uncanny feeling.
Obviously I have no influence on this on a macroscopic level but as an individual I think disconnecting from most of this would be beneficial.
Getting away from reddit was good for me. The libs were really getting to me. Since I'm spending time here instead, I also have been browsing less bc there's not endless content
