"We don't want to be Luddites --" brother, Luddites were opposed to bosses concentrating wealth by using technology to make inferior product with warehouses fulls of starving exploited child labor. You don't have to wear the team jersey but respect the game.

✨ Your Social Anxiety Wrapped, 2025 Edition ✨

You avoided people 397 times this year (but to be fair December isn't over yet).

You relived an embarrassing moment from 30 years ago 6 times.

You forgot 13 people's names, or maybe 14, who knows?

It's been 76 seconds since you checked your phone.

15 people are looking at you RIGHT NOW.
