The Buddhist idea of Dependent Origination (all things arise in dependence upon other things) in Van Gogh’s yellow, and the endless game of “but why?!” I may or may not have teased adults with as a kid.

"Across two field and 3 laboratory studies, we find that relative to taking pictures for oneself (e.g., to preserve memories), taking pictures with the intention to share them with others (e.g., to post on social media) reduces enjoyment of experiences" https://t.co/GTIeq5fiYL
