If you’ve seen the 2006 cult classic Idiocracy , you remember the horrifyingly hilarious future: a world where the top-grossing film is called Ass , and the President is a former pro-wrestler speaking in grunts. For years, we laughed at it as satire.
The goal isn't to eliminate mindless entertainment. The goal is to ensure you are the one holding the remote, not the other way around. Watch the silly ghost hunting show. Enjoy the 90-day fiancé drama. Laugh at the blooper reel.
But once a day, turn it off. Go outside. Read a paragraph of a book. Have a conversation where no one gets voted off the island.
Then, reality started pitching its own reboot.
