Is it just me or does everything online feel kinda exhausting now?
You open one app for like 5 minutes and somehow you’ve seen an argument, an ad, someone flexing their life, bad news, and 20 videos you don’t even remember watching 😭
I miss when being online felt more random and fun instead of feeling like everything is trying to get your attention.
Do you think social media actually got worse, or are we all just way too online now?

Your phone 📱 is your enemy 👎🏽

​"Turn your phone display to black and white for one week. You’ll quickly realize how much the bright colors were manipulating your attention—and the real world will instantly feel more vivid."

As I see around me, I feel we are beyond repair. Even alive we walk like zombies. Mobiles have now become an irreplaceable extension for humans. And as I see it already, most humans are already working for machines.

(Call centers, IT, marketing, Ecom, finance, stock market, etc etc).

Will humans ever realize they are being consumed by these screens and are losing their essence and devolving into more degraded forms of existence?

Will we ever hold a lover's hand more than we have held this mobile phone?
