Kate Berlant says getting off her phone made her feel intimate with her own life again.

“I was doing days with no phone, and suddenly it’s 1904 and I’m a novelist.”

She says going without scrolling brought back forgotten memories.

“When you go off your phone, you start having childhood memories. I’m driving, and suddenly I’m back in the kitchen, I’m 10 years old, and my father comes in. It’s unbelievable. My brain is like, ‘Thank you.’ It’s opening up and flooding me with images.”

She says constant scrolling makes you lose touch with yourself.

“You just start to think again. You become more intimate with your life. We can talk about the horror machine of this, but on a personal, psychological level, you’ve lost all intimacy with yourself. That’s the crisis.”

“Once you get a little bit of that intimacy back, you’re like, ‘Alright, now this is really medicinal.’”

The amount of data that spills everytime you open your phone is how. Like I *really* need yall to understand how much can be inferred by your phone habits. Almost everything. Do you get it? Everything about you is already known. Hope we all realize privacy was never present!

You're not paying less in taxes, but the services available to you are decreasing. Now ask yourself where all your money is going!

First they refused *Gulf of America*. Then they refused *Lake of America*. And now, MapQuest has a new feature on mobile that shows us Flock camera locations!

Did not expect MapQuest to become my new fav underdog hero of the year.😂

@sync0p3 @tylerdeanv if i were a virgin, i’d be in the same boat as you and then you’d say that i didn’t know any more than you did. but the point is the same, being or not being a virgin doesn’t magically change the quality of your life, you arent missing anything critical

Forget the Harry Potter HBO Series.

Did you know that they tried to cancel Professor Snape's stage play? Alan Rickman wrote a play about Rachel Corrie, the woman who was killed by aIsrael

She was crushed to death and Israeli forces posted photos on social media mocking her death.

Theatres in New York refused to let Rickman's play about Corrie be performed on stage in 2006 when he brought it to the US.
