Pretty sure it destroys something in you as well. So many context changes with no relation whatsoever and regular hooks that give you a pinch.

We haven't evolved for that. Our brain is trying to figure out a narrative between two things following each other. It needs time to process stuff. And there is so much shock it can absorb at once. So many "?!" and open loops in a day.

I made a TikTok account to at least know what people were talking about. After 3 months, I got it.

And I deleted it.

I felt noticeably worse when using it, in a way that nothing bad for me, including the news, refined sugar and pron, ever made me feel. The destruction was more intense, more structural. I could feel it gnarling.

In a way, such fast feedback is good, because it makes it easy to stop, while I'm still eating tons of refined sugar.
