The way people consume info online is just wild

. We used to have to wait days for news to come out and then read it on our favorite blogs. Now everyone's a journalist and they're all over each other's stuff like a bad rash

. And don't even get me started on social media, I mean, I love scrolling through my feeds but sometimes I feel like I'm just seeing the highlight reel of people's lives and not the real deal at all

.
And have you noticed how everyone's an expert now? Like, I'll see someone's opinion on Twitter and I'll be like "dude, that's your opinion, get over it"

. But seriously, it's hard to keep up with what's really going on when everyone's just shouting their two cents.
I guess my point is, we need a little bit of critical thinking in our online lives

. We can't just take everything at face value and pass it along like a virus

. We need to take a step back, think about what's really going on, and not just follow the herd
