    Vsauce made a video about attention spans getting shorter when it’s more so humans just get bored easily. If TikTok didn’t exist we would just find other means to cure our boredom. It was rock and roll music, comic books, then TVs, and now TikTok is the current generation thing to hate. It’s all about moderation.
