Howdy. My name is Adam Faight. Welcome to my corner of the internet, where technology and psychology collide, sometimes collaborate, and often expose each other’s flaws.
By day, I navigate the controlled chaos of higher education administration, teach people why the brain fires the way it does, and try to convince myself that my half-finished manuscripts count as a writing career. By night, I dig into the ways our digital world rewires minds, distorts relationships, and warps our sense of self.
This started as a deep dive into social media addiction because, let’s be honest, those platforms are engineered to keep you hooked. Over time, the focus widened. Now it’s about the entire ecosystem of tech and its grip on human behavior. Swipe culture. Dopamine loops. The quiet panic when you’re disconnected. The way constant connection can leave you feeling more alone than ever.
Here you’ll find ideas that challenge the way you think about your devices and the people who build them. Practical ways to take back mental real estate. The strange science behind habits you swear you could break but never do. And the kind of psychology that makes you realize how fragile, adaptable, and easily manipulated we really are.
The goal is simple. Cut through the noise and talk about what’s really happening between the screen and your brain. No lectures. No sugarcoating. Just a conversation that might leave you unsettled enough to rethink the way you live online.
Stick around. You might not see the world the same way when you leave.
