If you see me on here it's probably because I'm avoiding homework. But also I like a lot of things and to talk about them.

The most precious commodity you have is your attention. You don’t have to waste it on poor-faith debates or arguments with strangers if you don’t think they’ll be productive. You can prioritize the things that matter to you and make your life richer.

This person is one hundred percent correct and it’s scary af. We will never “media literacy” our way out of this as a society. We are about to reap the whirlwind when it comes to misinformation, disinformation, and informational warfare.

They literally ran a PSA during the 80s announcing it was 10pm, do you know where your children are? And then parents legitimately checked for us.
Okay. So I just finished S1 of Stranger Things!
Thoroughly enjoyed it!
