  • We were not prepared, as a species, for a device that let us come up with any opinion at all and find validation for it.

    It used to be that when you had an opinion that was wrong, you’d say it out loud a number of times, and you’d notice that everyone around you would call you an imbecile and ridicule you. It would make you reassess yourself and grow as a person.

    Now that societal failsafe is gone. Now people just aren’t challenged for holding the wrong opinion.

    That was an integral part of growing up and maturing. We don’t have a solution for it.








  • When you’re young, social interaction is just so engrained in your daily life.

    School, hang outs, nightlife. The opportunity to be social is never ending.

    But you don’t fully understand at the time that those opportunities get erased quickly, and all that’s left are the people you fully invested in when you were young.
