Gabby Petito got caught up with the chronical of her life as 'perfect' when it was anything but..OCD her Brian Laundrie got back in her van with dirty feet..the self-described 'personal issues' she disappeared. you can see exactly what happened if you use logic.

'What social media doesn't show us about Gabby Petito's life': Smerconish | CNN Business

CNN's Michael Smerconish says new revelations about the negative effects of Instagram and social media made him think about the case of Gabby Petito, the 22-year-old who has not been heard from since going on a road trip with her fiance.

additionally, my future hypothesis is that FB will become 'memories' to program AI with. Zuckerburg is truly evil. you can see exactly what will happen if you use logic.

I’ve been in news boards, html based chats and mirc for 25+ years, Instill don’t take anything online as real, it’s internet. However, I am not the common denominator “influencers” reach, it’s sick the way corporations are able to control the masses through paid advertisement “influencers”. People with no life (and that’s a huge majority of people) absorb these fake personas like a sponge, they long to have these perfect lives social media displays. It’s sad this girl died but perhaps she can be the beginning of a change we need,

I’m not one for government intervention but maybe some type of legislation needs to be drawn up, maybe disclaimers need to run on all these influencer pages, maybe Twitter, Facebook can police more shit like they do with fake political claims and Corona.

She likely meant ADHD, not OCD but didn't have the right words.

Will be interesting to find out what actually happened. Did he intentionally murder her? Did she scratch him again, and he accidentally pushed her down an embankment? Did she run off and disappear, and he left her saying "fuck it"? I wonder if they were high on shrooms or something, because they seemed high to me in the cop video.

Since the advent of social media, however, FOMO has become more obvious and has been studied more often. Social media has accelerated the FOMO phenomenon in several ways. It provides a situation in which you are comparing your regular life to the highlights of others' lives.


Therefore, your sense of "normal" becomes skewed and you seem to be doing worse than your peers. You might see detailed photos of your friends enjoying fun times without you, which is something that people may not have been so readily aware of in past generations

Since ditching fb in 2017 I am enjoying life and my time much, much more.
Sure glad to have sidestepped a lot of the bs that has come from there since 2016.

Family, face to face friends and gratitude for everyone personally in my real life are where it’s at for me.
