#hwa2 #mediafunhouse this "funhouse" is part of my routine unwillingly. Doomscrolling will have you going to tik tok to find "Top restaurants in NYC" to watching a stranger reading tarot cards and claiming you have an admirer.
I resonate with the example because that's literally me every morning for no absolute reason, and it turns into constant forgetfulness and my attention span shortening #hwa2 #mediafunhouse
#hwa2 #mediafunhouse this is real cause I do it often but I saw on ig reel that someone accidentally opened up TikTok instead of calling 911 for his friends 🤣🤣🤣
#hwa2 #mediafunhouse I definitely relate to this. I cannot remember how many times ive reached for my phone to do something important and then ended up on tiktok 😭😭
This example resonates with me because I open my messages and next thing you know I am on tiktok scrolling and then I hope on instagram and that cycle just continues for hours without even realizing how much time I spent on it. #hwa2 #mediafunhouse
#hwa2 #mediafunhouse I definitely resonate with this sentiment. There have been countless times when I have opened my phone for one thing, and instead spent hours doing something else, sometimes even forgetting my original purpose of opening said app to begin with. It's very disorienting.
#hwa2 #mediafunhouse
The example presented didnt necessarily resonate with me, the fragmentation felt like it was a chaotic scenario. Is there underlying theme here? Probably, maybe im not intune with the general message.
#hwa2 #mediafunhouse This DEFINITELY resonates with me. This is basically what happens every time I try to go to sleep while on my phone in bed and end up scrolling for hours.
#hwa2 #mediafunhouse ooo i def resonate w this especially for instagram the amount of times i've opened the app to respond to a dm and then ended up doomscrolling and forgetting to reply is genuinely just embarrassing
This situation resonates with me because this is exactly what happens every time I go on my phone to do something. #hwa2 #mediafunhouse
#hwa2 #mediafunhouse this definitely resonates with me especially the part about your thumb scrolling in the middle of you reading. I sometimes notice that happening and make a point to go back and finish reading/watching
I would say I don't get distracted as easily as others would be but obviously if anyone starts scrolling on insta or tiktok or wtv then you can easily lose track of what you wanted to do but it happens to the most of us. #hwa2 #mediafunhouse
#hwa2 #mediafunhouse I felt like I got called out because this is literally me going down the rabbit-hole of social media. 😭
Yeah this does resonate at times and seeing an example like this feels real. We got caught up in the craziness in the app sometimes we lose focus and overall is a contributing factor to the lost of attention span. #hwa2 #mediafunhouse
#hwa2 #mediafunhouse I use Insta Reels, and these examples hit. I’ll open the app for one thing and immediately scroll past random reels, stories, captions all at once. And by the time Id notice, I’d forget why I opened it. That proves McLuhan’s point that fragmentation feels normal now.
#hwa2 #mediafunhouse
I actually relate to this while scrolling on tiktok or instagram. I usually open the app to check messages from friends, but somehow I start scrolling for what feels like a few minutes which turns into hours.
I think anyone who uses Instagram reels, Youtube short, or TikTok will be able to relate to this. I personally get very distracted on instagram reels because you can get messages, get sent reels by others and go down rabbit holes without realizing them. #hwa2 #mediafunhouse
I totally relate to the media fun house. I always get side tracked and never remember what I really entered an app for. #hwa2 #mediafunhouse
This example doesn't really resonate with me just because whenever I get on a social media app, I typically use it with intention. #hwa2 #mediafunhouse
this definitely resonates with me. it happens to me at least once a day where i forget what i was about to do on my phone. even in conversations, i start one story that leads to me starting other stories, ultimately forgetting why i even started talking in the first place. #hwa2 #mediafunhouse
Unfortunately this example does resonate with me 🥲 I don’t even mean to fall into these traps but often find myself in similar situations #hwa2 #mediafunhouse
Yes this totally 100% resonates with me!! I try so hard not to get trapped on Insta but every time I go on there just to check a stupid DM my friend sent me, I get distracted and find myself scrolling for hours trapped in the algorithm's grip and forget what I was doing #hwa2 #mediafunhouse
i think this media funhouse speaks numbers about today's algorithms. before we scroll we say "its just 2min" then 2min becomes 2 hours. i relate to this a lot. i create content on insta and afterwards end up doomscrolling for hours and replying to comments of all different types #hwa2 #mediafunhouse
This example does resonate with me because I'll turn on my phone with a specific task in mind and then the second a different notification pops up I get sidetracked. #hwa2 #mediafunhouse
This really resonates with me. As a certified TikTok addict, I’d say this has absolutely wrecked my attention span.
#hwa2 #mediafunhouse
Helpppp why is this me
I'll open tiktok or smth to find a video I saved like a week ago, and then I'll just end up scrolling forever, get bored and leave the app to do smth else, get lost on that app and then remember what I was doing like an hour later to repeat the cycle #hwa2 #mediafunhouse
definitely resonates with me. the amount of dopamine spikes and drops because of different types of reels make me forget to text people back, even respond to emails lol #hwa2 #mediafunhouse
#hwa2 #mediafunhouse this definitely resonates with me I even try to go to bed and see a good tiktok and go down a rabbit hole . sometimes i’ll forget to respond to a text, i’ll respond in my head as the notification comes in, say i’ll watch one more video then forget to text back 😞
This does resonate with me because I go thru this almost every time I am on IG reels. Different videos, different contexts,music, and comments all have my focus jump around and it makes me zone out and just keep scrolling. #hwa2 #mediafunhouse
This example does resonate with me because like the example, I feel that on social media my attention is "fragmented" in ten different directions. #hwa2 #mediafunhouse
