I could shit in the middle of Fifth Avenue and somebody would buy it.
Well he should start selling his used diapers then…
people will buy anything. it’s crazy how humans will justify anything because of dopamine.
someone needs to invent something that just lights up or vibrates when your dopamine receptors go off so you can stop, and think about whatever for a quick second. sort of like an impulsive detector/warning. call the device ‘post nut clarity’ or something
There was a somewhat related experiment where they gave mice access to food, water and a pleasure button. They pressed the pleasure button until they starved.
Maybe some sort of service so when you want to buy something, it sends the request out to a bunch of anonymous peers acting as judges. You can’t make the purchase unless a significant majority approve.
Sure, when you see the Funko pop you’re tempted, but a bunch of detached people are more likely to go “no that’s a waste of money. Rejected.”
amazing idea, but the way corporations infect things and ruin them, they would become the anonymous users and manipulate you.
