Ok but what if the kid on the left is watching bill nye, the kid on the right looking at porno mags?
Shouldn't the thesis here be message > media not media > message?

It's definitely an experiment, but is isn't Bill Nye.
I'm 14 and this is deep moment.
A bit too deep..
It's much worse than that.
im 72 and this is todays youth
or something like that, i domt have lead in my paint
I need a doctor at these depths
It's so funny to live at the end of the "don't read that, it'll rot your brain" era and the beginning of the "don't watch that, it'll rot your brain" era.
Seems like whatever young people are doing in a given moment is wrong
The olds do it too and it's so much worse for them.
The point of this post isn't that TV is bad and books are good, the kid is watching 1 guy 1 jar on the TV.
Ah, I'm too old. Only familiar with two girls, one cup.
But are you tubgirl old?
I'm a registered member of the lemonparty
I thought you're saying that there was an equivalent of that video in book form back in the day lol
I mean, I'm sure there is. Plenty of gross out literature has been published.
Naked Lunch by William S Burroughs starts with a man eating shit of a plate.
What if books were invented after video games?
These new 'libraries' that have arisen in recent years to facilitate reading activities are a frightening sight: dozens of young children, normally so vivacious and socially interactive, sitting alone in cubicles, reading silently, oblivious to their peers.
But perhaps the most dangerous property of these books is the fact that they follow a fixed linear path. You can't control their narratives in any fashion - you simply sit back and have the story dictated to you. Why would anyone want to embark on an adventure utterly choreographed by another person? But today's generation embarks on such adventures millions of times a day.
This risks instilling a general passivity in our children, making them feel as though they're powerless to change their circumstances. The book readers of the younger generation are learning to 'follow the plot' instead of learning to lead.
From "Everything Bad Is Good for You" by Steven Johnson
Socrates complained that reading and writing would make the youth dumb because they no longer had to rely on memory alone. Old people railing against any change in tradition is a tale older than time.
A beautiful piece of contrarianism.
Idk if I'd call it convincing, but it's a great illustration of how you can turn all these critiques on their heads and sound just as "concerned".
We’ve moved on to the “don’t play that” era
That's been a thing for decades.
How dare you love to listen to this wild Rock Music?
Be happy that this is what you're getting from the picture.
Was wondering for too long why the kid on the left was looking at Ozymandias on the tv.
I think it's pong
Missing 2 legs for that cup...
No, it's the right amount of legs. Different container.
Omg, no just fuck no 🦵🥤🦵
That's enough Internet, I'm going to try to forget I ever saw that.
What's the shadow on the left? It looks like someone shitting a battery.
Warm
I think it's an old trauma inducing video from early Internet days where a man attempts to fit a jar into his butt, only to have it break in the attempt. It's really utterly horrifying, but I'll admit to laughing at the reference here.
Well I'm glad I asked. I'll scratch "ass trauma glass jar videos" from my to-do list this weekend.
There's blood too. Silent, bloody anus horror.
Didn't he die too
1 guy 1 cup
I wonder if they made alternate versions of this. For example with 2 girls.
You're thinking of Mr. Hands, the guy who got fucked to death by a stallion
No, but thanks for bringing that back into my mind....
It's a shock video called 1man1jar.
He sits on it, it goes inside him, then shatters.
He then starts to pick the pieces of glass out of himself, while bleeding everywhere.
Hollow and glass, keep away from your ass.
Well I got aphantasia, so I’ll stick with tv and films thanks
I had to look up the definition of aphantasia as I'd never heard of it before. That is so fascinating!
Do you have an inner monologue? I read that they can sometimes co-occur.
I don’t have that either
It’s a spectrum, but I seem to be on the see nothing in my mind end
Jar Jar?
I can only see one man one jar and that is definitely not age appropriate for that kid
That's not age appropriate for anyone.
