Don’t feel like playing the twitter bait game?
> The book is called ‘Wanting’, by an guy named Luke Burgis.
Annoying “teaser” title on this post which leads to the usual annoying twitter thread, where in this case the name of the book which blew his mind a little is actually named.
Incidentally, where exactly does blowing one’s mind “a little” rank? Is that more or less than “enlightened me”?
This combination of dumbing down and gaming communication is growing more popular, and it is making us worse humans.

Of course the author could have just written in a different medium, and link his blog, but you know how short the attention span of people these days. What's relevant is the message, it doesn't have to be written like an Economist or a New Yorker article
