the state of things


I've noticed something in recent years. Kids nowadays, especially teenagers, are so disregulated and so stressed out that they will turn on each other and destroy each other online just to have something to do.

It's tragic, especially as someone old enough to remember the time before but young enough to understand exactly where it went wrong. It's usually 14-18 year olds. The iPad was released 16 years ago. That's not a coincidence, it's bloody tragic.

These kids are gonna struggle so much if their natural response to conflict is to harass someone, or doxx someone, or threaten them in the most horrific ways. The workplace is a stressful environment with a lot of stressed out people; if something goes wrong, these kids aren't gonna be able to hold down a job. They won't be able to handle adult relationships, which is gonna isolate them so much.

I hate what social media has done to us. Truly. I'm considering just deleting my account on the only microblogging site I actually use, because it's just too much seeing this kind of behaviour every day. It's so draining.
