"ads are based on your activity" they say. I like biology and I am frequently engaging in biology related topics on the internet, yet they keep spamming me with gambling ads, israel army recruitment ads (yes these are a thing!), and occasionally the hot girl mobile games, all ads I literally did not ask for. Everything is thrown at me, most being harmful and completely unrelated to my interests, except biology.

    I used to draw a lot back then. My loss of interest for games gradually made me go back to drawing and I am fine with it, it is nearly a decade I have not drawn until I decided to work on something yesterday on a paper. Did my first dedicated drawing yesterday and I am planning to do more in the next weeks 🙂.

    I still play games sometimes though (warframe, minecraft, worldox) but again just for a few minutes and rarely an hour or more.

    Back then I would play games for hours and hours to the point my parents would get angry at me. Now above my 18s I can not even play more than 50 minutes because for some reason everything quickly gets boring.

    Why does politics in the United States feels like a national scale theater? I am not using the word "theater" to mock america's political system, its "theater" in its literal absolute sense. Feels fake and programmed, does not feel natural, 99% politicians feels like actors/pretenders playing good vs bad role. Even the timing is suspicious.
