    I was refused a job interview because I don't use social media. They wanted to look me up and they couldn't.

      One job wanted me to download a social media app, make a profile and show case myself, like tik tok...

    1. Make Room for Surprise.
    2. Think different about what tech is in the first place.
    3. Connect with local ideology.
    4. Appreciate Art.
    5. Recognize the value of unproductive activities.
    here you go :)

    True intelligence. I've had to delete my Twitter recently, as I realized a major mood shift from being on it so much. I only created one 2 weeks ago but the effects had been obvious.

    Putting the phone down doesn’t mean we have to be hippies. We can go to the gym, play basketball, dance, learn an instrument, join a club, go out for coffee... My life improved so much when I deleted my Facebook and instagram. I’m ready for this influencer culture to end because a ton of women that I am interested in end up being social media junkies, and it is a major turn off. Also, wannabe influencers are ruining Tinder.

    I know I will not get a response to the following question but I feel compelled to ask anyway: Why does the video creator believe this background music is appropriate for this content? For me, the music is way over melodramatic and not fitting to the author's message. Gee, how about just silence, only words, as I believe it is more fitting for reflection and deep thought. Oh, I forgot, this is youtube. Sorry, my bad.

      @@Michael45007 there's a difference between addiction and necessity, they make it seem like everyone can't look away like the rest of these "I deleted my Twitter/Facebook" comments. I deleted them all years ago one after another, I didn't expect a pat on the back or others to follow my example, and above all it didn't change my life lmao
