Short form videos are fucking digital opium. I hate it. I deliberately do not have instagram/YT/tiktok accounts with the intention of avoiding it, but I have repeatedly found myself watching a short vid sent from a friend before I find myself scrolling and then snapping back to attention, 40+ minutes later, like some Jekyl/Hyde shit. I imagine it’s what having an epileptic seizure is like. I just lose track of time completely and I hate it.
I never agreed with Bradbury about how TV is so bad so forth, but I am with him now. Shit’s addictive












Wait, do you get paid immediately? Or do you get paid when your ocean tour concludes on the 1825th day?
Because it would be tedious as fuck to have to still work every day during that time while enduring daily ocean trauma (and potentially have an unrelated accident and subsequently invalidate all my effort up to that point).
Also, like some other people mentioned: is it a random part of the ocean in a survivable area? I imagine this would strictly mean the surface of the ocean wherever you end up. Certain depths would be instant death and I don’t know how the physics work with teleporting from deep ocean back to the surface, but I assume it’s the perfect recipe for spontaneously contracting the bends
