socialmedia Timeline - FediScanner

📚🧠 Our #brains are being trained to think passively by the infinite scroll of #socialmedia, leading to increased #anxiety and a higher susceptibility to "illusory truth."

Cognitive scientists explain that the simple act of "deep #reading" – intentionally slowing down to engage critically with a single text – can act as a biological shield, lowering #stress levels and sharpening our ability to identify false information.

Aus dem Text zum Begriff des sozialen Netzwerkes, der von dem Soziologen James Barnes 1954 geprägt wurde, entnehme ich eine interessante Unterscheidung. Als „soziales Netzwerk“ wird „im Wesentlichen der Bekanntenkreis einer Person, wobei die Person selbst im Zentrum des Kreises steht und die verschiedenen Ableger ihre Bekannten sind“ verstanden, während ein solches Netzwerk im Internet als „virtuelles soziales Netzwerk“ verstanden wird. Sucht man etwas nach dem Verständnis von „virtuell“, entdeckt man, dass es das Gegenteil von „materiall, physisch, tatsächlich und real“ ist. Seiner allgemeinen Bedeutung nach ist virtuell mit „scheinbar, nicht echt“ gleichzusetzen.

Sind unsere ganzen Verbindungen im Netz soziale Netzwerke? Den Begriffen nach nicht, sondern es sind nur scheinbare soziale Netzwerke, die nicht real sind. Das spiegelt auch unsere Alltagserfahrung wider.

Bluesky is An Ontological Space for Sadomasochism, Trolling, and Schadenfreude

So, during the initial exodus from Twitter after it became X following Elon Musk’s purchase, many people left but kept their accounts, purposefully to bully, surveil, antagonize, and troll others. People—including me—moved to Bluesky, Mastodon, or both, and used their Twitter accounts purely for harassment and similar behavior. Essentially, X became the place you went to act like a dumpster fire. Because most people within occult niches are highly toxic, I tend to not only block them […]

New at The Barbed Wire:

A #TikTok video with more than 100,000 views showed Kaleb Blain, a 35-year old #trans man and pitmaster, standing at a folding table gesturing to a plate of freshly prepared chickens, ready for the BBQ smoker. The caption read “politics and cooking don’t mix.”

But then the video cut away to a series of photos of the late Anthony Bourdain, the infamously outspoken, unapologetically progressive celebrity chef. The text then read, “Momma said it was OK,” as Lukas Graham’s “Mama Said” played in the background.

Beneath the video, Blain wrote, “Mom would burn lots of people with cigarettes rn if he could.” It has more than 28,500 likes since it was posted on Jan. 15.

The video is a fiery missive from Blain’s BBQ, the pitmaster’s small-scale enterprise in the Waco area. Blain is just getting his start slinging meat, but he’s learning from Bourdain’s legacy as a big name in food who embraced its intersection with #politics.
