Have you bought anything today?
You haven’t?
Damn it, open up Amazon or DoorDash or the TikTok shop or the App Store or anywhere you can exchange cash for goods or services without even getting up off your ass and make a purchase.
Oh, you have bought something today?
Damn it, open up Amazon or DoorDash or the TikTok shop or the App Store or anywhere you can exchange cash for goods or services without even getting up off your ass and make ANOTHER purchase.
You don’t want to do that? That’s okay, it’s hard to make choices sometimes. Instead, why don’t you open up Facebook, or Instagram, or TikTok, or YouTube, or hell, even LinkedIn and scroll for a while? I know I want to. Won’t it feel so good? Imagine what you might find. Someone might be making a fool of themselves. A dog might be making a silly face. Maybe you’ll even get to see someone being angry about the same thing you’re angry about! Maybe you’ll get to look down on people who are doing worse, MUCH worse than you are. So many possibilities, so little time! If your screen time isn’t in the double digits your eyes aren’t working hard enough.
Whatever your vice, whatever it takes to fill that ever expanding void inside — you’re too bored, too hungry, not enough clothes, not the right appliances — get to filling it. Buy something. Watch something. The world depends on it.
