Freedom...maybe

Done randomly searching. I think I've become bored of the Internet. With all the stimulation, fear mongering, searching up stupid crap, conspiracies, news, window-shopping,etc. I've finally exhausted myself. Like, I want to go do other things now. Today I came across the stories of the missing scientists who worked with supposed ant-gravity. After watching interviews with Amy eskridge, I just sat back and told myself, I think I'm done with all this bizarro crap. The E files, Trump, UFOs, genocides(disturbing imagery), etc. I'm tired and want to live life away from my phone and the Internet.

Everything happening with wars, genocides, economy, etc., is out of control anyways. Fuck it. I'm tired of the Internet. I'm tired of people looking at phones, people telling me random information they saw(horrible news stories that are random and pointless to know), because they stare at the damn phone all day. So many mentally ill people I've involuntarily come across or hear about in podcast-being made famous...stupid shit becoming viral and knowing about it(ignorance is bliss nowadays).

I'm done. I want my old self back (where'd that person go?). The Internet just causes anxiety and depression for me; from what I've listed and time wasting. And before people defend the Internet, and say it's a tool and amazing, I don't care. People don't really use the Internet or social media that way. Not as much as they claim people do. Also, when I need to learn something, the information is wrong sometimes, AI slop, YouTube and search engines come up with videos/information that aren't relevant to what I searched for. Taking a hiatus. End rant.

I used to have a pair, they broke and I'm searching for them again. No website has them for sale. Snoop Dogg Limited Edition-Blue. I wish Skullcandy still made cool headphones. I have a couple pairs of The Roc Nation Aviators; the new Aviators are dorkish and ugly.

Skullcandy should have their entire catalog presented like Koss does via website. A history of their company and the headphones they've made.

When I was a kid and teen my parents forced me to believe in Catholicism, or I'd be punished(grounded from hobbies, driving, friends,etc.) and screamed at. I was also called retarded multiple times, referred to as stupid, or talked condescendingly to. I suffered from anxiety attacks and was told that demons were the cause of this. Not being allowed to play certain video games because the title of the game was considered blasphemous;Halo. Told that my dead relatives are constantly watching over me, then being gaslighted whenever I say that that's not real or happening. There's a lot more, but I'l end it here.

I feel like society doesn't value creative work anymore. What's become popular is political arguing, doomerism, waiting for aliens, people thinking armageddon is happening, excessive phone use, etc. I've noticed that cinemas aren't a staple in today's society(Martin Scorsese said Films are a dead medium-Quentin Tarantino fled to Is Real). Also, people don't care much for literature, and if they are reading literature it's slop; TikTok-BookTok stuff. I get contemporary books as gifts and they're just so boring; did a person write this?

I remember when people would get psyched about a film they just watched at a theater and passing the news to friends and schoolmates. I also remember people getting excited for the new release for Harry Potter; there were parties for this-a book series. Alternatively, video game releases also got people stoked; major releases where you'd camp-out with friends and, again, pass the news around. Now it's just re-release, or re-release of a re-release-download to your console or PC.

Lastly, A.I. horseshit. A relative of mine told me about an audio book his wife and him discovered. When the voice started to read, the book made no sense. Like the story was written by a program and the author wasn't real. Apparently, there's a plethora of this. Even in print form.

Is it worth persuing to do something creative anymore?
