Is Non-Social Media = the New Non-Smoker?

Ne1 manage to quit?

Never was on social media, and never plan to be, unless it's specifically a work account.
Only LinkedIn, if that even counts as such

But conversely, I smoke ciggs and have no tattoos, which makes me like a ****in unicorn for people in my age group.

Sometimes I brows YT shorts, which are all reposted TT vids, and can easily see how it rots your brain and attention span. You'll be watching these random shorts, before you know it, its been 2 hours and you cannot recall a single video you literally just watched. That HAS to be causing some sort of brain damage or learning disability.

Maybe we don't call that brain damage, it's more akin to an addictive bad habit.

The trouble is, many of us live in such a clean/sterile environments that we are very susceptible to these substances.

A rat in a cage, whose only options are sit idle, or drugs, he's gonna do the drugs.

No, it is legit long-term permanent holes in your brain made by vapesmoke, TikTok videos, and depressed thoughts. Unfixable and permanent little algorithm-powered worms burrowing tiny pinholes to make a bunch of sad idiots who are paralyzed by fear as they hide behind clouds of Guavaberry smoke and blue screens.
