This app is exhaustingly neurotic

Long periods of therapy-posting punctuated by bursts of either apocalyptic political freakouts or horny-posting

All vibes no posts really. A kind of stormy subcultural hormone soup of eternal adolescence

Question: what is a low stake technology/technology adjacent thing that you deal with all the time in your life and that bothers you? (Example: your phone rings on your computer/watch/phone all at once, your router splits your wifi into 2 separate networks and it confuses you, automotion plus, etc)

however, once a voice in a network is established, if agency of new members isn’t preserved, the pressure to assimilate outweighs the ability to influence and have a dynamic moving voice. the network ossifies, and through this preserves a historical state. this is a neutral characteristic

social networks develop unique voices, states of thinking. there’s a reason Twitter and Facebook have a “type of person” — so did MySpace. when we embed ourselves into communities, the same dynamic happens. this is what attunement feels like.

online communities are like mind-spaces — I wonder if this means we will eventually create some sort of individual mind-home?

What’s your favorite “man-purse”?
April 21, 2023 at 9:15 AM
The conversations I like best are usually detailed experiences of the now (or recent now) less so about speculation or deep past

I seem to have much fewer personal memories than some other people. I wonder if it has something to with my “state of mind”, which tends to be a lot about “right now”,,, much less reminiscing into the past or even talking about the future

social media is built on flirting
