You know how you finish a bag of chips and you hate yourself? You know youโve done nothing good for yourself. Thatโs the same feeling, and you know it is, after some digital binge. You feel wasted and hollow and diminished.
Dave EggersMy parents told me they were going to kill me at least a thousand times growing up. "I'm gonna kill you," and then they'd whack me on the side of the head or whatever. And "What's wrong with you?" And "I'm gonna lock you up," and "I'm gonna throw you out the window," and "I'm gonna kill you." You know, all these things that you say in the heat of a normal chaotic household.
