Social Media Insomnia
For me, it's schoolwork that keeps me up all night. Sometimes it's because I've been loaded with homework and at-home-projects that I need to finish, and sometimes it's because I'm stressing out about school.
Play
Global Warming
Quench Your Ego
Keyboard Wars
Desensitize
First World Fear
3 weeks without food, 3 days without water, 3 minutes without air, 3 seconds without battery....
Limited Stock
Stupid how people care about money more than physical, living breathing things.
I Am Fine
Consuming Time
This makes me feel guilty for having an egg McMuffin for breakfast.
Prescription Prevention
End Poverty
Repressed Creativity
I used to draw and create some nice pictures, but my life now is my job (in finance) and I feel exactly like this, with a small difference - the colourful creative part of my brain is probably a tenth of the grey one. Yes, it pays the bills, but there is no joy and definitely not happiness :(
Compromise
There is no compromise, these days. So sad how our world is crumbling right before our eyes because people don't stop and think about the harm we are doing to the place we live in.
Social Media Assassin
Unlimited Knowledge

Compare To Despair
Puzzled
My mind immediately tried to put the puzzle pieces together, being a person who loves puzzles.
Okay, come on. Technology is not all that bad. Sure, people abuse it and may use it to harm other people but it has done more good than evil.
Exactly. I'm sick of this anti-technology trend. People promote their art using technology, while criticizing it? How hypocritical! Who's forcing you to use social networks? And don't start with "it's an addiction" argument!

Most modern technology has helped us and yes, some use it for bad reason, but thats to blame on those who use it in malice, not the technology itself.
