Either I'm schitzophrenic or the Dead Internet Theory has progressed from merely an occasionally noticeable phenomenon ("theory") to a default on the bigger social media platforms?

Will we have to go full #PGP and have Real Person Certifiedβ„’ corners of the internet?

Also, don't look up why Eglin Air Force Base (Florida, US) was on the list of "most #Reddit addicted cities" in 2013.

@pivic #deadinternet sure made the Cassandras right again. That is their fate. What few saw coming is the zombism. The dead internet of AIs and their people.

@burnoutqueen I'm not saying this is a good thing but the sota image generators are less commonly used and theyre a lot more realistic, no plastic sheen or piss tint

Wow, so pretty much any β€žwhatβ€˜s the best XYZβ€œ type of web search query is already #deadinternet i.e. there are almost no non-AI results left.

'The Independent #Intellectual vs #PostingZero and the #deadinternet' my short, ten minute introduction to SCREENSHOT BABEL, a workshop I ran with Ester Freider as part of The Cyberbaroque: A Neologism-Based Symposium, is now available on my Media Gifts blog:

Organised by Everyone is a Girl (EIAG) (https://everyoneisagirl.cargo.site/), and held at Anomalous in #London on November 20, 2025, the symposium explored the idea of the cyberbaroque allegory (https://everyoneisagirl.substack.com/p/i-lost-track-of-what-is-real-personas) through presentations, a reading, a workshop, and a film screening.
