    Ah, the Nothing Ever Happens community not knowing how to look for all the things that are happening.

    If you actually tried, you could find a rich tapestry of events, stories, discoveries, and people doing interesting things, it’s that you’ve let large political stories overshadow all of that and are expecting the same level of “Let’s get a streamer reacting to another streamer reacting to a debate between four influencers while subway surfers runs in the corner” level of spectacle.

    Make your own spectacle in your head, stop expecting the internet to deliver you dopamine on demand.

    Genuinely, this post makes me pissed. I hope OP is a kid or this was an attempt at irony, because adults who feel this way about the world are worthless.

      As a professional honorary Internet Doctor, I’m prescribing OP a week off work with no Internet and an eighth of psilocybin mushrooms.

      Get all your scrolls in tonight OP! I’ll be outside your house first thing tomorrow to cut the Internet lines and deliver your assigned crate of offline media. Stay hydrated and please do not resist your treatment!
