Explorer From Another Time
As I monitor what passes for social media discourse these days, I’ve concluded that I am merely an explorer from another time, unlearned in the ways of the natives.
In this month alone, I’ve observed a series of unusual behaviours, including:
A well-known local educator arrested for allegedly publicly cussing someone online
Students around the world starting fires in schools and homes by copying the so-called Chromebook Challenge on TikTok
A sitting world leader beefing with a Pope on social media
Beefing with who now???
The behaviour of these indigenous inhabitants is so bizarrely foreign that I will be making no attempt to colonise this time period.
