I was on a quest to do this but I lost interest after reaching Jeremiah. Ecclesiastes surprised me though - that one was interesting.

Which was your favorite, if I may ask?

Save me from the not _ thing I’ve become

also that cat

YouTube for me. I just realized I’ve been experiencing brain-rot like symptoms (i.e. unable to concentrate, think deeply in realtime, continue conversations without much pre-thinking) for the past few years because I watch too much Lets Plays as a substitute for human interaction.

Similar - I don’t say anything coherent, just contort my face and say things like Patrick from Spongebob (i.e. leedle leedle leedle lee)

Part 2: Me as a child putting my bare hand on a hot iron. My entire hand was bandaged up.

I don’t recall the pain, but the bandages lol

Yep I’m not streaming - waste of mobile data

Coronal Mass Ejection perhaps

Side question - how do people get the opportunity to move so easily? I work in Tech and the market is brutal right now

Same - Planescape Torment is my personal greatest RPG ever made

I’m in the same boat; I no longer have any motivation to self study and pursue excellence in these skills - ‘AI’ has destroyed that. At least back when searching Google / Stackoverflow / reading Documentation was still a thing I saw the value in making my own notes so as to reduce the friction in recalling the concepts, but with AI it’s become trivially easy to get an answer to any question.

I’ve been distracting myself with learning other skills (i.e. how to drive, taking certifications, applying for Working Holiday Visas), but these are dead ends.

I’m still employed, but only a matter of time before I get laid off I think.
