Finals episode, part 1
Why is social media, specifically tumblr, so good at preventing productivity?
I think it's because it uses the same resources and gives the same feelings as actually completing work. Scrolling through a facebook news feed or a tumblr dashboard keeps you updated with what's going on in the world, and getting back to the point where you last checked it gives a sense of completeness. Especially when so much schoolwork is done on the computer, processing words and information from the web feels productive, even when it isn't.
