Let’s talk about why I left social media in today’s video. Sure, mental health, etc, but can we also talk about how “the attention economy” is built to keep us from what’s actually important?

Links to everything I mentioned in this video:

• The Anti-Attention Economy Manifesto, which I wrote.
• My previous video where I mention webrings.
• I broke my wrist in 2013. Here’s a blog post about that experience.
• The podcast If Books Could Kill and their episode about the Four-Hour Workweek.
• Folding Ideas/Dan Olson’s video about The Mikkelsen Twins.
• SuperEyepatchWolf’s video about YouTube Influencer Courses being Garbage.
• Also, the same day this video went up, The Financial Diet published a video about Instagram and social media and how they’re built like an MLM scam. No. Not “like.” But IS.

Let’s have a more casual chat in today’s video, which is about A2CAF, Conventions, and social media for comics creators. This format is inspired by Lucy Bellwood’s rambles, which you can listen to on her website.

I mentioned the Anti-Attention Economy Manifesto I wrote, which you can read for free.

Here’s a link to the wikipedia page about Cory Doctorow and the Enshittification of the Internet, which has a video of the panel where he discusses it and what to do about it.

Today I drew a page from The Legend of Jamie Roberts, a comic about a genderqueer pirate and their two best friends treasure-hunting in a land full of dragons. Read it for free on the official site.
