We do not care that we laughed so hard at the podcast we listened to on our walk, that the neighbors must think we‘re crazy. #wdncw

This was a very good book! It unpacks the monetization and colonization of our attention, how prone we are becoming to distraction, the difference between attention and connection, how news is spread, and more. I would highly recommend!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I found this more insightful than I expected. It was not individual strategies for reducing time online or scrolling but instead went into more societal trends and pressures related to monetized attention. He makes some interesting points and I learned a few things.

Really interesting! This nonfiction book from the MSNBC journalist is a spot on treatise on attention, politics, media, and human connection. Great on audio, read by the author. This one made me think!

44/100 I've always enjoyed Chris Hayes' TV show, and this book is very relevant to today's information overload society. Our attention is divided by many sources fighting for our views, twits, posts and likes. As readers, we all know the struggle to maintain our attention, when the cellphone, the internet, and the TV is trying to lure away our attention. Donald Trump is the first president of the "Attention Age", someone pathetically unqualified⬇️

RamsFan1963 in every category except one, he is a master at drawing people's attention to him. 4 ⭐⭐⭐⭐ #Read2025 2mo

DogMomIrene Is this the guy who hosted The Talking Dead? 2mo

RamsFan1963 @DogMomIrene No that's Chris Hardwick. Chris Hayes hosts All In on MSNBC 2mo

DogMomIrene @RamsFan1963 🤦🏻‍♀️ Yes! I should know that🤣 He‘s one of the anchors there who‘s hit or miss for me. 2mo

Sirens' Call: How Attention Became the World's Most Endangered Resource | Chris Hayes

I like it when life syncs up with what I'm reading. Yesterday a storm knocked out the power from 7pm until 10am this morning. No TV, no wi-fi, no internet, and once my phone ran down, no ebooks or audiobooks. No distractions at all, just the printed book to read. Is there something wrong with me when I say that I found no distractions very distracting? I tried to concentration on the book, but I found my mind wandering. It's not the book's ⬇️

RamsFan1963 fault, its very entertaining and Keith Laumer is one of my favorite writers, but I found reading without any background noise, of fans and the fridge, harder than normal. 2mo

AnnCrystal Yikes! The unnerving part is not knowing how long it will last for 🙏💫. 2mo

RamsFan1963 @AnnCrystal I suppose that's what was making it hard to concentrate, I kept expecting the power to come back on. Since I've lived in this apt, we've had occasional power outages, but never for very long, a couple of hours. According to the news, the storm knocked down several trees which took power lines with them, so they were up all night fixing things. 2mo

AnnCrystal @RamsFan1963 my apologies, been away from the web. That's was terrible! I hope they were able to fix your neighborhood outage quickly 🥺👍🏼...poor trees. 2mo

My #Roll100 books for April. 🎲 24 and 🎲 36 are pending library holds. 🎲 16 is probably going to be purchased since it‘s not at any library branches or libby.

@PuddleJumper

PuddleJumper Library holds are so unpredictable. I've had one on hold since Christmas 3mo

SconsinBookyBadger @PuddleJumper my brick & mortar library is quick on interloans, libby on the hand is slow pace even with available soon ebooks or audio 🐌 3mo

You probably already feel a certain way about Chris Hayes. You either find him boyishly charming, cute as a button and nerdily sexy or.... wait what was I talking about? Audio read by the author A+, an excellent analysis of an issue we all know deep down is at the heart of what ails us.

AmyG I‘d be curious as to how many people here even know who he is. 🤣 5mo

Suet624 You forgot earnest. He‘s very earnest. 5mo

Christine 🤣 Great review. 5mo
