The End of the Internet

Shout out to @disceverum for re-posting Steven King's Tweet about the end of the internet. King's tweet says:

"I reached the end of the Internet. There's a sign there that says WELCOME TO OBLIVION. Beyond, just the dark."

Take a look at this funny website about the end...

Have you ever felt that way? After going down rabbit hole after rabbit hole, it feels like it's too much. For example, while creating this blog, I have been buying my son swimsuits, then some school shirts on another site, looking at three different sites for buying a new dining room table, multiple (even some duplicates) sites for class, and God knows what else.

It's been proven that the human brain cannot multi-task, but rather just switch from one task to another at a relative speed.

Can People Really Multi-Task?

My brain is apparently on the slower side of switching tasks, because it's taken me close to 3 hours to get stuff done.

I can't help but think about Douglas Adams' book series "The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy". If you haven't read it, please do because it will have you laughing with tears in your eyes. The movie isn't bad, but the series continues with hilarious non-sensical humor. I put it in our Goodreads leisure folder. (Talk about multi-tasking 😉)

Anyway, I'm off to do dive head first into a bunch rabbit holes.

How many windows do you have open right now?
