Attention is Love

We believe this article is a must-read for anyone interested in brainrot and your fragmenting attention spans. Don't worry about the weird German philosophy - stick through it:

"To live in the modern world is to be pulled in all directions. The rush of trends, with some new, hot topic being discussed, keeps us frantically busy; the smartphones we carry make sure that we never forget (but also never truly remember) anything; the algorithmic environment ensures that we never have a moment where content is not being offered to us. We can call this problem ‘fragmentation’: our mental lives are increasingly disunified, and we become a collection of more-or-less disconnected fragments.1 And as Matthew B. Crawford puts it, ‘what is at stake often seems to be nothing less than the question of whether one can maintain a coherent self.’"

Even HE2 said this was a "banger", and the last thing he said that about was an episode of Demon Slayer last week on Slack.
