Or how to inculcate yourself against trend mania by calculating for force
i joined substack because i'm so sick of the ads and algorithms. the ads i get on ig are totally 'weightless,' empty products.
There's a theme here... Some call it:
Age of Average: https://www.alexmurrell.co.uk/articles/the-age-of-average
Stuck Culture: https://lindynewsletter.beehiiv.com/p/culture-stuck
I coined it "Cultural Stasis Amidst Creative Surplus": https://zine.kleinkleinklein.com/p/creator-paradox
But it's beyond media blockbusters, it's a cheap, soggy omnipresent spirit.
Something weird indeed...
btw thank you for these. all left me shook! especially the stuck culture article, have got me firmly off the ig. done bein a stuckass gram head lol
Haven't used IG since ~2011. Welcome!
