Is Jim Carrey the real Jim Carrey or is it a clone?

It seems like he's had some cosmetic surgery done and he appeared at like an awards thing and the internet went into a frenzy.

And the common assumption was, oh, well.

He's a clone.

Not that he's followed a history of people getting plastic surgery, but no, clone.

It's super binary.

But for work, for example... Don't you take my Kindle away from me.

My experience is with news, these days most of my information comes from YouTube and then a bit of like Instagram, I guess, realistically.

But I still pay for New York Times and really try to will myself to check the New York Times and look at it as if like, okay, I'm going to look at the New York Times, get my world news from that.

But it is so much less entertaining.

And I find myself always going, I'll just watch The Daily Show.

I'll just watch Jon Stewart.

Yeah.

Yeah, okay.

Yeah, so I'll end up going to YouTube to see what's going on.

And, of course, I'm getting like...

And objectively, well, intellectually, I guess, I know that that is an unhealthy and potentially biased view of the world, and I'm definitely not getting all the information.

But I also know that I'm not going to read the whole New York Times.

I'm not going to read long articles because I just do not have the attention span or really, to be honest, and it's kind of embarrassing, but I'll want to read that much text.

But I maintain my subscription because I kind of feel like I'm kind of offsetting the fact that I'll just like watch 23 minutes of Jon Stewart tell me what to think.
