The real puzzler is how people can spend hours reading their screens and still be bad at reading
They’re not reading, they’re watching 10 second videos
I sat at an intersection the other day for two minutes in my school bus. I glanced down into the car next to me and saw a kid sitting there watching a video of a woman trying to lift up a stick with big bunches of bananas on each end and failing at it. Video was like 5 seconds long and just kept looping. The kid wasn't even laughing, just seemed to be in a coma. I'm sure there are dumber tiktoks out there but I can't imagine what they would be.
