I think I just watched this for the first time. I was born in 1974, and by the air date I would have just turned 11. I remember how upset I used to get about nobody believing in Snuffy. I fear I was pretty well shaped by it by the time I felt I was “too old” for Sesame Street.

I do think there is an issue with social media in that I can log on and almost immediately see a reply from someone who is too noxious for the vast majority of society. maybe not great that we’re all getting drive-by psychic damage from people who 20 years ago would have had almost no platform

In the 90s, I genuinely thought the Internet would cure loneliness. But it turns out that for me anyway the Internet addresses loneliness the way alcohol addresses anxiety.
