Information cancellation Beginning last night until now, we are experiencing downpour. It's another gloomy and rainy day for us here brought about by the storm Neneng. We just finished breakfast and I am having my first cup of coffee and I feel pumped to write here before laziness overpowers me later on. I am writing as I listen to the cadence of wind and rain on the roofs and houses outside. When it rains this long, it saturates everything causing erosions and flooding. We don't have a storm signal but it feels like at least storm signal no. 2. However, that is how nature works. The farther you are from the eye, the more saturated it gets. I was reading a post earlier online about how information saturation is happening right now. The effect of it was we tend to cancel these information. Just like when algorithms online would tend to pester you with ads and links about a certain product you have just researched. Say you have searched for a beauty product, then it will suggest to you everything about that product and you keep seeing posts or ads or links about that product. It is enticing at first but you grow tired of it that you tend to ignore that product later on. After watching a video clip online, the suggested videos would be videos by the same content creator or other videos related to that. If I keep skipping the next video, then it will suggest me otherwise. While ignoring can work in stuff like that, I think other information should not be ignored just like the basic motivational and inspirational videos, like those that really give useful information. We all have different niche or interests or topics that we are well versed about or that we are comfortable writing about. We try to give new information to try to make it interesting hopefully. But how about the topics that we all know in general? When we read about them, what do we do with it? How does it affect us? We read about those day in, day out not only here in read but in other platforms and online. Do we grow tired of it that our brain would rather ignore it? Or do we focus on one thing and keep building on that ignoring the rest of the information because we think it does not apply to us anymore? We keep pushing others to do their best, to achieve, to succeed - all about self. How about your emotional skills? We are all about intellectual we tend to ignore feelings anymore. I guess what I'm trying to say is to balance the information that you consume. You have to choice what you want to ignore or not but make sure that those you keep are beneficial not just to you but to everyone else.

We are owner of our will and allow thing to adopt which we feel good. No one can't impose on us. Yes , we should be balanced in acceptance and assumptions.
You got it right :)
It is also pouring hard right now as of writing this. It is hard to distinguish fake or genuine info these days. Peeps are getting better in convincing infos to the mass. Kaya ingat ingat din ako sa mga info na ipapasok k osa sekf ko. Good morning, Lee!
And that's the way it should be :)
You will get a lot of information, Ads and videos pop up from every corner. You can decide what you will consume and what you will ignore. I get a vibe of nature while reading your post. You represented rain and sort of other things in a nice way.
Thanks for appreciating!
Hello kuya Lee. Malakas ata bagyo kasi kahit sa inyo na walang signal, e parang ganon pa rin. Stay safe. And the lack of emotional skills? Shoot! Parang ganun na nga me. Hehe. Kaya, yung sa fb if may mga lumalabas na something ayoko, kiclick ko talaga agad yung 'don't see this post again' and tend to follow good and inspirational things nalang.
Dami triggers online talaga kaya siya nagiging toxic e.
Right now we're experiencing heavy rain and it's not really good for me. Thus, I loved the music though.
Yup music can transport us anywhere :)
Ahh. I'm forever stuck in the loop. I tend to click and click related posts until I added anything to my cart.
Lol! Joy clicker :D
October rain is not usually serious, but this year it has left some many places flooded
Agreed and it seems all over the world.
We have a weather forecast; there may be a cyclone on Sunday (16 Oct 2022) in the seasides of the bay of Bengal.
This is a late response but I hope the cyclone didn't materialize.
It went off towards the deeper side of the Bay of Bengal.
Ingat po kayo dyan, ako ndi mahilig magshare, ang hirap din kasi if totoo ba or ndi,minsan scroll down lng ako
I have up to 98+ items in my cart that I ha e the intention of ordering, but most of them are just the same stuff. I never knew the word was information saturation though, stuff is real. That sort of thing can make a person binge watch too, and at the end of the day getting more information than he can process.
It is addicting to watch one more video or one more episode. I'm guilty of it too :D
Cancel n lng aketch pag laging nagpapop-up tsaka sa messenger delete convo n din pag laging nagsesend ng message jaja... Stay safe kau jan.. right now, nag-imas tuturugan t kids ta tudu nga tudu ngy
Imbag na lang nalpasen ti tudo na :D
This information is today's reality. Also one have to be very careful... There could be a lot of misleading information out there which appears genuine
That's the thing. Fake can appear real and that's frightening.
I know sometimes I like to block out the outside world. This really comes into play during elections. You simply can't trust any politician no matter what side you fall on. There is no other profession where they drag thier opponent in the dirt more is there? 🤣 Asides from that information has to be analyzed if you decide to use it.
Oh yes. We recently had a presidential election and you can see families, friends, relationships destroyed because of difference in opinions/parties/candidates. Such toxic times!
Exactly you balance your information don't allow people to choose for you ones you will ignore, choose by yourself.... The heavy downpour is causing a great flood here,, houses are swallowed I can't cry
Oh no. It's the same here when we have storms. We are not safe anymore.
I am guilt of this 😂 but on a serious notes, some information are vital and shouldn't be ignored.
True. I fall for a lot of fakes too.
Guilty, I sometimes ignore the good information and believe the unreliable one.
That's understandable. Because we are tired of checking sometimes we tend to just go with the flow.
