We’re in a global situation where cartoonists often find more powerful words than reporters. And since I read The Guardian too, I naturally had to start doomscrolling straight away! Apocalyptic scenarios to suit every taste! 😁
Of course, I believe in dachshunds. And any other dog to dominate humankind!

Except that “rape scenes” are not the problem to begin with, it’s emotional-response optimized #doomscrolling “content” that is the problem – something that age-verification changes exactly zero about!

Yes, there are also those seeking this kind of thing out anyways (children or not), but that’s (a) a much smaller problem and (b) given a proper prior content warning, a single case of “View anyways” is generally enough to teach the lesson of why it was hidden to begin with. It’s not different from touching the hot stovetop. What we need here are broadly-available support networks to help deal with the burns.

Age verification (if done right), is merely a tool to decrease the likelyhood of eary-burns – somewhat balanced by the cost of allowing less learning possibilities. (All assuming everyone gets access to privacy-respecting, security-reviewed and non-intrusive implementions!)

I just don’t see how #age-verification is supposed to be the big game-changer.

Disparaging Umair & Jessica

Medium had two doomposters who told us over and over again that the USA was heading for an oligarchy. They had no solutions.

These writers were popular with Medium readers:

Grâce a cette vidéo de Gwen, qui est plus connue maintenant en tant que @journaldesbriques et chroniqueuse chez Blast, je me suis rendu compte à quel point #gnome est puissant. Surtout sur un laptop #doomscrolling

GNOME, le bureau ultramoderne

He hecho un stream en twitch jugando Chrono Trigger y me he dado cuenta de dos cosas. Como se disfruta jugar estos juegos si te dejas de preocupar por quien te ve, y como los adictos al #doomscrolling huyen de estos juegos ya que requiere paciencia prestar atención a detalles y pensar.

No es rápido como un shooter o ver números volando a lo balatro. Turno, accion, repetir y mejorar los stats de los personajes.

Lo peor es que este tipo de juegos pueden ser un bien para ese problema.

a very long winded way to say: you should stop #doomscrolling. 😂

Heute ist aber auch wieder inhaltlich ein düsterer Tag hier in meiner Timeline.

#doomscrolling

Some racist, queerphobic #Flagshagger juts in to your feed as you're #Doomscrolling, to tell you that the problem's that people are capable of being different. Dipshits like this spread #Propaganda to convince you that the reason you're miserable is solely the fault of minorities and the other "wing," and it gives him money because it angers you. #HumansDontHaveWings.

Sopravvivere al metaverso?
Non c'è bisogno di reinventarlo: è già qui. Internet, gli strumenti digitali, le piattaforme - sono già il nostro mondo. Qui c’è un guazzabuglio di pensieri per provare a rifletterci su.

#Books are a good distraction from #DoomScrolling... So far this year I have read books about poisons, parasites, death customs, corpse medicine, autopsies, murders, delusions, nuclear war, nuclear disaster and an Ebola outbreak ... 📚🤔💀
