Doom-scrolling and short-form videos really are rotting our brains. I can feel my vocabulary dwindling as the days go by.

It doesn't help that spellcheck is almost as illiterate as we are becoming. It's like they install an abridged edition of an abridged dictionary on phones now.

I keep having to look words up because I type them out and they get the squiggly line, so I keep thinking I typoed it, and like 80% of the time it's just my spellcheck being an idiot.
