scrolling is an epidemic

What can I say? Cocaine is expensive
Time to leverage my Bitcoin into a life where I don't have to be spending time looking at a screen checking the price of Bitcoin.

The next generation can't fight, if they throw a fit without a screen infront of them...

Have kids. Have many. Keep them off screens.
That's insane. Nature's calling.
most of the content is digital these days, so it is not just scrolling
interchangeable
What if we change the UI so instead crolling you have to flip pages? Or tap links?
I jest, mostly just because I read books on my phone, and I don't tend to think reading a book on my phone is the same as doomscrolling. We may be getting sucked into dopamine sinks more often, but at the same time, the screens are getting more useful...
eh, not necessarily
screen time spent on computers compared to phones, and you'll see big differences in time spent consuming scrollable content
What do you think about it?
My neck hurts just reading this
Que triste
You can tell the audience, because he didn't once mention raising children, family, etc.
The revolution will start when the people look to screen to find what they really needs.
The question is :
What do you really need ?
Watch tv ?
Ohhh Gosh !
You can tell the audience because he starts at 18 and mentions traveling the world. As you get older you know how unimportant travel (especially the the corrupt 3rd world) is and how it detracts from more important life goals.
Broooo
So glad I grew up when I did. After school every day was outside until the street lights came on. Even more outside time on the weekends. I’m lucky I know that. 🦅
Motivation not to look at screens… if you know the desires of sex.
Like what? Living in the totalitarian 1st world to pay tax to ensure the 3rd world leaders get there bribes?
Most of my screen time is done at work or on the toilet so you just have to integrate correctly
Scrolling + sugar = de-civilization
98%of that 93% is figuring out how to delete an account
it is a massive problem
1) i have an addiction myself, working on it
2) extra important when raising children
3) i think we can build apps that provide healthier experiences
But we are doing it anyway. The really rich - they don’t have a phone by their side.
and I would say it's also satanic
sucking the energy out of you
this energy could have been spent doing something better
Great reminder Odell - Merry Christmas!
You have to live somewhere and at least in the fiat first world, you have options and can buy Bitcoin. In the 3rd world there is no wealth or income for you to store.
🤣🤣 1. addicted myself
3. lets build an app 😂🤣
Bro stooop 🤣 🤪the addiction wont let go 🤪
Hahahahaha point 3 made my day man 😂🤣😂😂😂
Find the failure 😂🤣😂😂🤣😂😂
So the play is obvious then. Do like the immigrant. Earn in the states in your younger years and then have a family out side of the surveillance grid once you've secured the bag.
Successful people do not retire or leave the States for inferior and less free places. American wealth has always been built by those courageous enough to accept the reality that you keep progressing and stacking and don't abandon ship as soon as things appear good. Never sell out, only perpetually buy in.

What does that have to do with Satan?
So he's conflating looking at TikTok with all the computer work many of us do for work. Building things, researching, publishing....
This is human fud bro. I refuse to let the millennials turn into another boomer generation.
If your kids are looking at slop on screens, give them something more interesting to do.
Merry Christmas.
This is good
As I watch this on my phone…
Lol bro the south is free im practice while the north is free on paper.... Those who are successful do leave the states all the time. Heard of capital controls? Read the sovereign individual?
Could be. The freedom may be on paper, but real freedom comes from within assuming you can earn fairly and save fairly. Bitcoin avoids capital controls (for the most part).
Ive been staring at screens since like 1995. I'm doing fine. The kids will be fine. File this away for the pessimists archive twitter to pull out in 30 years.
It’s what they are looking at that is the problem! It’s that quantity versus quality thing again. I remember starting college in 1995 where we had a dedicated ‘internet’ room where you could get online. When I think about, the technology has changed but the people have not
Im not on any social media other than primal
Ok fine, I’ll go “touch grass.”
MC, 🎄 Odell.
Hey, we already have an app that disconnects people from the screens and connects them to each other.
It's called @BitcoinWalk
