Original Advice

DONT: Doomscroll yourself into imaginary emergencies.

Unplug From Imaginary Fire Alarms

Your thumb keeps manufacturing crises your life never ordered. Every scroll is a siren; every siren kidnaps your breath. You call it staying informed, but it is rehearsing catastrophe. Your body believes what your eyes binge. Heart races. Jaw locks. Plans evaporate. You weren’t invited to these emergencies. You RSVP anyway, from bed, blue light on your face.

The feed rewards panic. It sells you shock in tiny portions and withholds resolution. Your brain chases the cliffhanger, flooding you with adrenaline while your hands do nothing. Algorithms exploit your need to map the world. They hand you a funhouse map—distorted, endless, bright. You can’t fix a fire by watching flames. Pull your attention out of the burning theater.

Cosmic Context
