God IWTV is so crazy, they really have something for everyone. If you're normal they have Loustat fucking halfway through the first episode of season one and continuing to be unabashedly in love the rest of the series. And if you're a neurodivergent lesbian who can't get off to anything but a glacially snail-paced slow burn, they have Daniel pushing Armand against a wall in season 3 episode 4.

depression will really have you out here thinking nobody loves you while the people who love you are right in front of you

nobody talks about how Instagram’s algorithm is killing mentally ill teenagers anymore. my entire feed should not be videos of people mourning their loved ones that killed themselves. I did not follow these people. why are you programming me to associate killing myself with recieving the reward of love and attention. STOP IT!!!!!

[crippled-peeper]

If your friend or loved one gets massively depressed and sentimental out of nowhere and they are glued to their phone

DELETE INSTAGRAM!!!! BEG THEM TO DELETE IT!!! USE ANY OTHER APP (NOT TIKTOK OR REELS) IM BEGGING YOU . GET THAT SHIT AWAY FROM THEM!!!

[crippled-peeper]

Me: if you performed a digital autopsy and retraced the activity of people who killed themselves in the last 5 years how many of them were being led down an algorithmic funnel where they were taught to associate suicide with being important, loved, remembered, and valuable?

Reuters is talking about this now (17 jun).

this 12 year old girl’s family is suing meta over this exact phenomenon I described above.

please look out for your friends using Instagram.

i redownloaded instagram last month after over 6 months off and almost immediately it triggered my first major depressive episode in months. i didn’t start feeling better until i deleted the app again. for an app designed to help you connect with your loved ones, it’s really effective at convincing you you’re completely alone.

MY FINGERS BARELY EVEN TOUCHED YOUR STUPID FUCKING AD STOP REDIRECTING ME TO THE APP STORE
