do it's like yeah like short form content is bad even educational short form content i can get into it now if we want to the studies are bad like they act okay sorry i'll explain that more deeply yeah i would like to start talking about like what are the things that happen to your brain like the cognitive issues and impairments like we can start getting into like now if you consume a lot of short form video content or scroll a lot on the internet it doesn't just have to be video it's just like the rapid i'm assuming even like twitter and no no it's not it's

Most studies focus on short-form video.

I mean, that does make sense to me.

I mean, ultimately, you're just draining your brain.

And I do see more people talk about this.

It's like, you do have a limited capacity for your mind, for your body.

Like, we can see it realistically.

Like, you know you can't run all day without, like, obviously eating a lot of food.

But even at that, you exhaust your body.

And I think what is like people are starting to learn or hopefully starting to realize, especially with research to back it, is it's like you literally drain your cognitive capacity in your brain by swiping.

And that's where they're seeing the deficits come.

Like the more you swipe, the faster you swipe.

People who are online more frequently and going on TikTok and reels and shorts are

have like literal deficits.

I can get to some numbers too that show not just their memory, but their attention.

It's like, you no longer have the energy because you used it.

So it's not like, it's just thinking about it in terms of like, if you spend three hours a day doing this, that's energy used.

But I think the problem is, and even for myself, a lot of people think this is my relaxation time because it's passive.

I'm actually not using energy.

I'm seated.
