According to the internet, humans come with expiration dates. Not for living, of course, but for hobbies, careers, technology, and curiosity.

The internet didn’t disappear. It fractured into billions of personalized versions, each carefully curated by algorithms that know exactly what keeps us comfortable. The result? We all think we’re seeing reality, when we’re mostly seeing ourselves.
