    Can we?

    Yes.

    Will we?

    That remains to be seen. We introduced something worse than heroin to the world, and getting off it as a society isn't going to be easy. Seriously, you run out of heroin (or these days, fetty) and have to leave the house to score more, eventually. TikTok you can watch as the thing you fall asleep to, and as the first thing you do when you wake up, before you have a thought for yourself when you wake up. You can absolutely lose your job to it. It changes your thinking, in some ways good, sometimes bad. You can't accidentally overdose on it and die the same way you can fentanyl, though if you crash your car while driving it traffic because you were on your phone, you're just as dead.

    I realize the irony of posting this from my phone, but Betteridge says "no" but I implore everyone to not have something digital be the last thing you see and hear before sleep, to not be the very first thing when you wake up.
