The Internet, which, ideally, should have resulted in smarter people, because hey!, access to pretty much all the information and data in the world, is making people stupider,
PERIOD.
The narcissistic
obsession with broadcasting
every minute of your life to total strangers; putting up immature (at best) or blackmail-worthy (at worst) images of yourself doing stupid things; the crazy behavior about self-made, worthless "celebutwits" (edited to be family friendly) like the Kardashians, who've contributed absolutely nothing to the world, whatsoever; putting pictures of your made-up face on Instagram...if you spend your entire day filming stupid stunts to get Youtube hits/followers, or putting on bondo to try to look like a #WorthlessKardashian, how the
hell can you possibly have a moment to
actually learn anything of any value? Other than the inestimable value of concealer and contouring, or course, or how to land without breaking your ulna.
Seriously, it's
mind-boggling to me. Is it too naive of me to think that people should be curious about the world? The advent of the Net seems to have made people more self-centered, not less.
SUCH a disappointing result and waste.
