My optometrist says that looking at anything up close for too long is bad for your eyes.

It trains them to focus at a short distance and gives you myopia or something like that.

I've been getting progressively more nearsighted since I was eight

Feels pretty worrying man

I know, which makes it fucking amazing that he can't string together a cogent argument in his entire manifesto.

1: I don't enjoy marine biology
2: Therefore surrogate activities are shit
3: Therefore it would be preferable to die prolonged and agonizing deaths of simple infections in a primitivist hunter-gatherer society

Bravo Ted, bravo.

Ha! Fool that you are, you put the so-called "brilliance" of one individual above the rest of humanity - especially those who haven't been "blessed", as it were, with the same institutions this Kaczshfjdhjfski was accorded! Now, leave, filthy Platonist! You disgusting meritocrat - though "merit" here is used ironically, since, as I've explained, there is no merit in a privileged, exploitive bunch. Leave, and take your anarcho-primitivism away with thee, go bash some rocks together you absolute hypocrite! Go trade some goats off to a neighbouring chieftain - albeit you should abstain from getting too advanced, wouldn't want you to develop a mode of production.

Why do mathematicians and logicians go off the deep end so often? Gödel starved himself to death, Grothendieck saw visions and spoke of a coming New Age, Kaczynskij blew people up and I'm getting really worried about Mochizuki.
Is a mathematical talent God's way of saying "sorry for the inconveniences"?

Dictionary,
Dictionary,
Why, you should play Pictionary!
Oh, for me, I'm quite the contrary!
Mine rhymes and schemes,
Well, they far surpass any of thy memes,
Where you are a fairy, I'm an ent.
Allow me to elucidate, no need to reach
for thy Puffer, Accolate, no need to suffer
Upon the shores of Normandy I did breach,
Found thy maiden's body strewn out,
When I was on that bloody walk-a-bout.
Hark! I say! Shout! Look upon that gluttonous
Whore, it's like watching James and the Giant Peach!
Now, I digress, I have some wanking to do, I must confess.
Farewell, dear reader, do not try to deconstruct this here poem, as if you were Derrida.

It's not the screen itself, but the action of looking to a close object by a long period of time. You would also get myopia if you stared at a wall 8 hours everyday. And sleep is also important for having good sight
