The Future of Offline Nostalgia - NYTimes.com: The coming decade will witness a similar rejectionist movement, with the rise of Offline Romantics. Offliners will decry what they consider the degradation of the human mind: its splintered attention span, the struggle to concentrate, the thrum of digital excitation pervading every wakeful minute.

Do You Suffer From Decision Fatigue? - NYTimes.com
The more choices you make throughout the day, the harder each one becomes for your brain, and eventually it looks for shortcuts, usually in either of two very different ways. One shortcut is to become reckless: to act impulsively instead of expending the energy to first think through the consequences. (Sure, tweet that photo! What could go wrong?) The other shortcut is the ultimate energy saver: do nothing.

Social Class as Culture - Association for Psychological Science
Social Class as Culture - Association for Psychological Science: "Upper-class people are different, Keltner says. “What wealth and education and prestige and a higher station in life gives you is the freedom to focus on the self.” In psychology experiments, wealthier people don’t read other people’s emotions as well. They hoard resources and are less generous than they could be."

I found those protests exciting, yes, because I was young and a bit of a twerp but also, I suppose, because there was a void in me. A lack of direction, a sense that I was not invested in the dominant culture, that government existed not to look after the interests of the people it was elected to represent but the big businesses that they were in bed with.
