A little bit of everything all of the time

The cops hunting people for sport is not exactly that far-fetched…
Neither is the kitten. I don’t see your point
Thankfully there’s enough content on Lemmy now that I was able to unsub from the most of the left panel type subs, no doom in my scroll thanks
Same. I just don’t get enjoyment out of constant outrage. Our brains aren’t built to be exposed to that 24/7, and I don’t think it’s healthy.
I agree with the brain part. But I’m also glad there are a lot of people and communities here discussing things other platforms shy away from, or outright shun. Hard pills to swallow those topics are, but nevertheless makes me feel more sane seeing there are people not gobbling up any mainstream rhetoric all the time.
I’m realizing that Steve Huffman ruining reddit has a major silver lining for me, in that I’m on social media considerably less and as a result there’s been a lot less doom in my life- and it’s been great :) thanks spez! JK, still fuck you spez
attention spans shorter than single small fly life
I made it about halfway through this novel you wrote.

Heh, Star Trek meme.

I’m trying to think of another example, and I’m at a Loss.
That baby asked for it!

The joke is how vile things have become so normalized that we’re able to compartmentalize them so we can try to enjoy something more normal.

Someone said comedy is tragedy plus time. I’m still waiting
I found it funny. It’s a good commentary on how messed up social media is. You can go from cute animal pictures to rage-inducing headlines in the flick of a scroll wheel, and it captures that dichotomy in far less words than it took me to write this.
