can’t enjoy anything without thinking ‘this could be content’

Is it just me or is literally EVERYTHING becoming content bait? I went to this super chill cafe today, and instead of just enjoying my latte, my brain immediately went 'this would be a sick aesthetic reel' or 'good carousel slide.' Like, can we just *be* for a sec without mentally framing it for the algorithm? It's draining the joy out of stuff. Fr. #ContentCreatorLife #BrainRot #GenZProblems #DigitalDilemma #AnyoneElse

OMG YES. You just articulated my entire existence right now. I was literally trying to do some 'mindful journaling' this morning and my brain immediately went 'screenshot this aesthetic spread for the 'What's in my journal' reel.' It's a sickness. 😭

Fr tho. It's like our brains have been rewired to think in frames and soundbites. The struggle is real to just exist offline. Or even just exist online without 'performing.' #PerformativeLiving
