American society has become a hallucinatory bubble, because our knowledge of almost everything is secondhand and delivered through media, and now many of us spend many hours a day hooked into media systems that deliver information only based on what goes viral (mostly by making us mad)

I thought about this yesterday at the post office. A young woman was helping an older lady use the stamps atm. The older lady was laughing and saying she was so glad to have the help. I started thinking about how much I appreciate living in a town like this, and it dawned on me: there are plenty

i agree. I wonder, though, if it might also be true of approximately every other society, too.

hey aren't you the guy who ate shit in his primary because you couldn't stop angrily calling people pointing to their bills going up liars who love Trump
