The Shadows on Our Screens Picture this: You wake at 3 a.m., unable to sleep. Without thinking, your hand reaches for the glowing rectangle beside your bed. Within seconds, you're scrolling through an endless stream of images, opinions, outrage, and advertisements. Each swipe brings new shadows dancing across your retina.

You hate this. You continue doing it anyway. This isn't weakness of character. It's the predictable outcome when Stone Age neural circuits meet Silicon Valley persuasion technology. Your attention mechanisms evolved to notice rustling bushes and track prey across savannas. Now they're bei
