    Most people spend more than three hours a day staring at a small mirror in their pocket that makes colorful dancing lights.

      I, and the vast majority of the world, wander around with instant access to the sum total of human knowledge, as well as the ability to instantly talk with anyone else in the world that we know. Face to face in many cases these days. These devices also allow many of us to remember that *we have a universal translator in our pockets, so language isn’t even much of a barrier to communication and understanding each other.The vast majority of us use these wonderous devices to get into arguments with people we are extremely unlikely to ever meet in person.

        And also about things that we generally either don’t really care much about, or can’t actually do anything about lol

        I can’t believe you would say that. I am offended.
