#YouTube is still one of the most valuable tools in the world for self-education and knowledge sharing, but the people who run it are hell-bent on making it another #brainrot factory.

For ex: There's a well-known "quack" doctor who promotes #pseudoScience and known #scams. Every time I search for a health problem, he's 75% of the results. YouTube gives me no way to hide him from search results.

They push what gets views at the detriment of what promotes truth. It's so frustrating.

As soon as I had an #adhd diagnosis I told

a. my spouse
b. one of my kids whom I suspect
(c. a coworker who clued me in
d. oh and a couple other coworkers who surprised me into oversharing--oops)

Today I sent an email to the wider family: rest of the kids (all legal adults), in-laws. etc

That was 3.5h ago. Not a single reply.

They hate me and/or think I'm #brainrot

Das kommt jetzt aber nicht wirklich überraschend, oder? #brainrot #ai #ki

Früher büffelte man, speicherte die Erkenntnisse im Hirn ab. Dann kam Google und Wikipedia. Da brauchte man nur wissen, wie man an die Infos drankommt. Allerdings brauchte man dazu schon kritisches Denken, um die Ergebnisse zu werten. Nun übernimmt alles #chatgpt und das Hirn verkommt zum Stopfen im Kopp, damit es nicht reinregnet. Das wird alles (nicht) lustig enden.

Welcome to the Hell we're living in
At the ending of the world, we're witnessing
You can cry for help, no one's listening
No, no one's listening
Welcome to the Hell we're living in
And the overexposure's sickening
You can cry for help, no one's listening
No one's listening, so listen in

None of the fuckwits in the #Republican Congress are going to do anything about this. They'll whine and cry the #Democrats concealed #Biden's state of mind, but #Trump is far worse and they don't give a fuck. They'll let #brainrot on the hoof sit in the #OvalOffice until they have to carry him out of there because he's got an R after his name, and that's all that matters to them.

Alternet.org · 'Struggles to 'even finish a sentence': Behind the obvious signs of Trump's growing dementiaBy Sabrina Haake, Raw Story

I think #Billionaires and those "earning" millions per year [exchanged in € as per rate] should be forced to #TouchGrass for all the right reasons.

This doesn't require him to take notes, but just do some "quick maths" on a napkin if he can't memorize stuff in his head to acknowledge that paying people a living wage is the solution.
