I’m thinking about metaphors for how people consume information. Infodemic. Infobesity. I think there are more thoughts to be had here, potentially even scholarly thoughts.

@kimberlyhirsh I feel like Cal Newport would be a good resource here, as would Gerry McGovern from a waste point of view.
@splinter Yup.
@pimoore Have you seen that neologism used? If so, I'd love to know where.
@pimoore After September 11 and July 22 I had that for a while.
@pimoore Yes, it was. It’ll be 10 years this year. It’s made into a movie that’s on Netflix. I haven’t seen it yet.
@pimoore Here’s the movie about 22 July, 2011. I imagine that it will be hard to watch some of the things in it, being a factual story.
@pimoore Yes, me too.
@pimoore @odd Yes. I remember with both 9/11 and the 2000 US Presidential election just sitting in front of the news for days.
@kimberlyhirsh Yes, I remember that one too. “Here’s a ballot, and here’s a ballot. Let’s hold them up towards the light…”. FL was the most concern, with the brother, wasn’t it?
