when watching the news was actually interesting. like pure excitement to watch the news to see what was going on in the world and to dream of better things as adulthood came. when watching the news was actually educational when watching the news had genuine topics to cover when watching the news was something you did at the same time each day, without fail. yes we can have rituals and all but the idea that we all learned some things at the same time was fascinating to me, as a child, now, i don't think i can handle adding more people's thoughts on some things, mine are getting crowded with the same message being told 1726350 times a millisecond. when people slowed the fuck down and enjoyed life! when people would stop you on the street and have a conversation that led to a 3-4 year relationship with a friend you'd see at the weirdest places too! now, we are so concerned for ourselves and our own safety that we miss 80% of life that can pass by each moment when having festivals and traditions were ONCE a year, its not that fun, if it doesnt, change the rotation, the same exact routine is nice for many things, don't try to make things exciting JUST by flipping the rotation of the same, over and over and over, make it exciting, something that would make YOU want to do the thing you're promoting. i want to make sure to state, its not you or your content that sucks, there are millions upon millions of people right? we all search what we want to learn more about or find adjacent to something we already seek. "if you build it they will come" still works virtually guys, lets go! but its not you or your stuff, its not knowing how to nail your audience the right way, its also that it's our expectancy of attention span these days, if its not now or immediate, someone else will likely get the sale, round and round we go. when a trend was worth looking into, now there's SOO many. i am happy with my choice to not have them, it has definitely created a divide I am not sure if I will nor if its worth trying to repatch, its been awhile, last 3 posts will probably span 3 years. i have yet to start a tiktok, i have adhd and struggle with internet scrolling as it is, id be strung out on that tok. when we made plans and stuck to them! we didn't all flake out on each other as we do, we are such assholes to our ownselves as much as we are to others. what happened there? actually, doesn't even matter, the past truly cannot predict the future, without making it political but more pointing out the fact we found out how truly different we have all become once Trump was elected, does not matter which side, it is still a fact and we can address that fact. all of this stuff will become the fact and fiction we see in the past we pick apart on the internet pretty much as soon as it is written now that ai has entered the chat. i am not against ai and am not opposed, i am very much on board with using it for GOOD and finding some ways to keep that part in check. the problem i have with it learning behaviors and whatnot makes it a double-edged sword. learning HOW we act, speak, write, and all compared to what is preferred and taught in real life are at completely OPPOSITE spectrums. to me, that is EXTREMELY skewed because truth be told, not everyone uses the internet, let alone the ones that do differ so much and the number of people that interact with each other the most or are the most active, are in fact, what ai will be picking up on and essentially, herding us into the same pan yet again. proceed with caution. it is a beautiful thing when you niche out enough, which is such a loaded term these days but hear me out. niche is where you shine and YOU become the person you once looked up to in some way. own it, be proud of the you that you become and forever grow. there is NO, NONE ZIP, reasons that you should ever stop teaching yourself about things that you enjoy daydreaming about. daydream that, picture yourself in the dream, what are you feeling happy about? what do you enjoy the most about the version of you? sit on that. like truly sit on that. become that person, keep that daydream, keep that momentum going, even if one 'I showered today' is enough some days, it's ok, you got this, you deserve to live your life for you. seek your need
