The indescribable amount and speed at which information traverses across the plane is something that has been hijacked for the demise of a humans mental state. Of course all in perfect order, and very provably has also shone the light on what is capable of the human at this time with the massive advance in our knowledge and technological heights. While our brain is the ultimate quantum computer capable of ingesting more information than anything else known to us, this doesn't mean that parts of our consciousness can't quite keep up, namely the parts that salivate for the stillness and desire the free flow of intuition. It started off slowly with the simple sharing of text based web pages like a 2.0 of a newspaper, article, publication or magazine. Yet with advancement it's evolved into a high speed punishment of information from millions of people condensed into 5-10 second intense video content with text pop-ups, flashes, and effects craziness. Not only is it the algorithmic sequencing of content, the mere fact that all opinions, perspectives, ideas, narratives and essentially conscious creation is being absorbed be you dear reader. It's not wrong, or "bad", it's a super-highway for your advancement in knowledge, but too much (which isn't a lot) will create a buffer overflow, hence anxiety a massive lack of clarity. You can turn this around though, yet many of us growing up with this super-stream of data, think that it's normal and shouldn't be avoided, yet what you fail to realise is that it's just a reality that you enter into, imagine it as a wormhole in which you literally dive straight into every time you open a powerhouse app or technology. Bare bones internet usage is possible in the modern world. Banking, essential email, messaging etc.
Once TikTok or Twitter is open you are now engaging with humans that are all also engaging with the rest of the internet humans, rarely producing anything that is of filtered thought from the internet, even people that have created success on the internet, captured attention, made money, and likely helped people will still benefit from a cutting off or removal of the super-highway. Time slows down, the need for consumption is merely a habit, and the desire to create or learn will inevitably come back to you. You soon explore parts of yourself that were originally "hidden" or "out of scope" due to the constant reference to "internet perspective". Expect to have a lot more time on your hands and a face of with yourself, for 99.99% of people using the super-highway of data it's a distraction, and for those predominately creating through it receiving energy from it in the form of attention, validation, money or status while likely your relationship with the internet is better it's definitely still worth complete removal of internet human energy, for a period of time.
