this is pretty much harmless though, i figured it would be interesting to share

The mod team GENUINELY said that my post is not relevant to dead internet theory enough EVEN when the title says "The comment section of X is genuinely the most brain-dead and bot-infested comment section of all time" and the whole post is about explaining further about the title. Is that not relevant enough for YOU!? Talking about bots and AI-infested comments on X is not dead internet theory?

They even told me to read the description.

"The Dead Internet Theory suggests that most online content is now generated by bots and algorithms to manipulate human activity and perceptions. It is believed that since 2016-2017, bots have displaced real users, with possible involvement from governments or corporations in controlling online narratives."

Yes. That was WHAT my post is about. People are discussing their experience with bots' comments in the comment section, my whole post is about explaining the bot issue with X/Twitter, and they tell me to post again with "an accompanying explanation in the description"

Genuinely every post that I come across on X has at least 2 of these:

1. Bot comments
2. Grown ahh humans talking like 10-year-olds
3. Attach like 10 threads talking about some drama
4. Advertise their other posts (no, we are NOT interested in them)
5. People just replying with a picture of their body??? Like we are NOT that thirsty

People always say Instagram's the worst but I lowkey think X's is even WORSE. At least Instagram's has some genuine comments

And the title of this post is misleading. Even the posts themselves are f#cking BRAIN-DEAD too. There are people posting engagement bait posts like "Click here to see the full image!" or "If this gets _____ likes and reposts I will reveal" blah blah blah.

And the intelligence of people on this app is also the lowest possible IQ value. Like can you just look at the username before replying??? And then there's the harassment/bullying posts/comments. People be posting their accomplishments and there will be some idiots who get jealous and starts to talk trash. Can you shut the hell up and get a job or something??

I mean, I know that playing a lot of video games can hurt you, but playing a little bit is good for your mental health and intelligence too

For example, shooting games are considered bad because of social media saying "it creates mass shooter." No, mass shootings are caused by mental health problems and instead of focusing on resolving them, news channels instead focus on spreading conspiracy!! Shooting games improve your hand-eye coordination and reflexes a lot, and it can relieve your stress after working shifts

Another example is Minecraft. Parents think it's distracting and make me not focus on my work. Everything does that, Karen. The Facebook reels you scroll distracts you from work. Your Instagram feed distracts you from your work. You can't just say that without reflecting on yourself!!! Minecraft teaches you about creativity and careful planning. Minecraft has a ton of mods and each of them teaches you many new things too!!

I think a lot of parents say that video games hurt your brain is because they didn't experience enough video games - 1 or 2 rounds of Tetris or Mario Kart does NOT represent the whole gaming world.

In conclusion, I think parents, especially of teenagers, should play some of their games so that you can feel what they feel when playing. Maybe you can discover one of your favorites too!!!

Thank you for reading my rambling, hope you have a nice day

I was going to record a botted showcase (Geometry Dash) when the recording stopped at around 7-8 seconds? The other apps are fine, but when the GD window is in focus it stops. Doesn't even save, so I think Snipping Tool just crashed.

My laptop is a ThinkPad X1 Carbon

I'm the kind of person that gets really motivated at night. I could study on one night and tomorrow get an A+ on a test.
However, my parents are really strict, and they don't allow me to stay past 9, even on weekends. So I found a way to get around it.

1. I memorized their schedule. I completely memorized their sleep time, so I can maximize time to stay up.

2. I trained all my senses to the highest levels I could possibly do. I can see in the dark really well without adjusting to it first, and my hearing is crazy sensitive.

3. I make a backpack SPECIFICALLY to confuse them. This backpack has a compartment that opens up at the bottom but has enough space to slide out a tablet. I can just fill my backpack with random stuff like notebooks and study materials so the opening of that compartment goes completely hidden.

Thank you for reading my rambling, I hope you have a nice night!
