Attention!

On this episode of the Blindspot, I tear into why we obsess over flashy tech billionaires—Bayzose and his yot, Zuckerburgs chain—for their public performance, instead of zeroing in on what actually matters. I expose how social media doles out attention that’s shallow and non-agentic, trapping us in echo chambers and rabbit holes, while the real issues fade into the background. I also call out Musk for running a government department that’s making huge, ill-advised cuts, underscoring that some matters deserve far more of your focus. Throughout, I drive home a killer point: your mental diet is as, if not more, important than your physical one.
