A lot of social media sites. Twitter, 4Chan, Tumblr, TikTok, Facebook, Discord, and so on.

There are various reasons for each but it frequently comes down to how much of it is people mindlessly reposting soulless clickbait and how hard it can be to find and track content relative to me.

Also idolizing and following celebrities. I mean I like Jake Gyllenhaal but I would be indifferent if they disappeared off the face of the Earth tomorrow.

If someone dances around the concept of Jake Gyllenhaal disappearing, I will immediately assume they are a swifty.

Is there a thing between swiftys and Jake Gyllenhaal?

Yeah, Taylor Swift used to date him, and she wrote a song about it. The fans don't exactly like her exes much after she does a song about one of them. Most of the time she kinda sounds like the victim in the lyrics but I think she's written some 'I fucked up' songs. But this is all hear say through my wife, so take the necessary grains of salt.

I love that your cited source is your wife.
