๐จ๐ฆTelevision rots your brain๐จ๐ฆ
I still remember the day I called Telus to cancel my cable, and the lady casually asked why, or perhaps they're instructed to ask why, but I let her know, with a polite 30 second rant...
I said television has become unwatchable.
The News lies, late night comedy isn't funny anymore, commercials are unbearable and depict people, and especially men as infantile morons who couldn't get through a day if not for the guidance of their eye rolling, but supportive wife who loves them anyways despite how stupid they are.
I can't remember the last time I had a Calgary Flames watch party with a group of friends made up of my black buddy with his Asian wife, my Indian neighbour with his white girlfriend, my two gay best friends, and the Muslim couple from across the street...it's all fake and it turns people's brains into mush. She giggled a little and said well you do seem to have your reasons.
I told her to get rid of everything but the sports package so I can at least watch a Flames game, but I can't watch them live. I record them all so that I can watch later and fast forward through all the commercials, and I don't have to listen to Ron freaking MacLean tell me how Nigerian hockey moms really make the hockey world go round.
TV has become almost alien to me. I can't stand even being in a room with one, and I remember the days of having the TV on all day just as background noise that kind of kept me company.
So I chose to pay for YouTube and X premium, so that I can watch what I want, when I want, commercial free, plus I can create silly little memes post stories, satirical takes on life, and get a satisfying dopamine hit every time somebody likes one of my tweets. ๐คจ
So yeah, I quit TV to save my brainโฆ now I just doomscroll X instead. Same addiction, cleaner interface.

@Concern70732755 Yes. Tired of the increasing taxes for reduced services received. Done with our terrible Healthcare. Totally sick of our winter weather!!!
@jkenney All this discussion about 3rd world countries coming here, and how they won't integrate and so on is great, but why is no one mentioning how they are taking over all the jobs and that we are paying half their salary?
Hey liberals, your guy is going to the WEF with his entourage while our leader has banned his cacus from participating... We are not the same!!!! When will you all wake up? After 10+ years of liberal rule, it's damn time for a change!!
Why is carney in China when it's so obvious what impact this will have on Canada-US relations in the upcoming CUSMA negotiations? Almost like he needs to pick another fight with DT before calling an election ๐ค.
@ouch_canada@CanTrueCrime Same as every other crisis... create total chaos and when the plebs beg for relief they swoop in and "save" us from the bad thing. Add to that the fact that there's always a money making scheme involved and it becomes obvious rather quickly what they're doing...
@SativaSmokin420@EricTrump Do you not think the Dems would have waived that proof from the rooftops instead of trying to run scam trials before the election if it were true? There's no way they would have sat on that info before the election if it were true!!
@Tablesalt13 That video shows exactly why I will continue to avoid such things... she'd only walk in front of me and block me once before she was flat on her ass. Best to let those with lots of patience and soft words deal with them
