hyperconsumerism, release me
I kinda love a Scrooge or Grinch with the right motivations, bc I have a soft spot for the curmudgeonly. If he's pissy bc of Christmas hyperconsumerism and overconsumption, or forcing positivity while being ritually abused by terrible family? I love that.

Helpful reminder in this festive season of hyperconsumerism. The greatest gift we can give another living soul is our heartlight💞🕯️, as Paul Barnes has so tenderly depicted throughout the years via acrylic and plaster.

unstoppable force (American hyperpolarization) vs immovable object (American hyperconsumerism)
the one thing that might end a Yoon moment in America is the fact that it would likely end the consumerist privileges most Americans value above life itself (see COVID response)
people genuinely don't realize how awful civil conflict is

This project by Pau Figueres Ortiz examines how brands are used, sampled, remixed, and desecrated in art, creating (un)intentional re-advertising. A meta-mix archive of hyperconsumerism, it classifies works by brand-sampling methods and brands.

There’s little in life LESS attractive than #HyperConsumerism & (particularly ’Merican’s 🇺🇸) constant craving to buy more, newer, cooler, etc.
Whether it’s the #opulence of wealthy, or the compulsion of the poor… just plain ugly.

Don’t know how if I can edit comments & meant to say..”This isn’t all over social media & all news sources..though I haven’t been to AP or Reuters today so maybe I missed it.

And this shift isn’t just about marketing strategy. It’s a sign of how deeply hyperconsumerism shapes our lives.
In the 1950s and 60s, Philadelphia police used “Black Friday” to complain about the chaos and overwhelming crowds at the start of the holiday shopping rush.

Did they mean the refusal to participate in hyperconsumerism when stuff works just fine? Or the planned obsolescence by monopolistic conglomerates with no right to repair? Or the proprietary shenanigans that make interoperability impossible?

Just a reminder in thus hellscape of hyperconsumerism as we enter holiday season:
You probably don't need to add 10 extra kitchen gadgets to your kitchen.
Unless it's broken or around the time to replace that item...keep on using that item.

Glenn Powell is very engaging as both a devoted family man and an unhinged survivor type, and Colman Domingo and Josh Brolin are great as the charismatic antagonists. I also love the lurid Night City in Cyberpunk 2077-esque atmosphere of vapid reality TV and hyperconsumerism in the first act.

Please, please can y'all diversify a bit? But unfortunately I know why things are this way
Books have become part of hyperconsumerism. BookTubers have to create content so they're gonna gravitate toward easy to read books w/ straightforward tropes/plots so ofc they're gonna be reading YA

I can't even be annoyed at this because '<<simulacrum of reality created by hyperconsumerism in 2002>> is way better than <<simulacrum of reality created by hyperconsumerism in 2025>>' is just too funny.
This is doing numbers on social media right now and it's so depressing how people truly yearn for this shit and want to preserve that feeling indefinitely like a mausoleum of false memories.
