Sweet Memes are made of Dreams

so much of the "research" on "phones bad" is just statisticians congratulating themselves in a circle

I don’t need a study to know using my phone makes me feel like shit

do different things on your phone then. I'm guessing you haven't written off paper as a technology just because tax forms make you want to cry
