Vampiric screens and demons

Vampiric screens and demons

I feel tired quite regularly. A lot of people also seem to feel that way. What's going on? It's almost like screens suck out our energy, like the Dementor kiss from Harry Potter, or the age-old myth of the vampire.
And not just energy, but time - oh my god it's already 9PM - and attention too - I can't focus on anything I swear!
The concept of demonic possession actually makes a great deal of sense in modern and depraved contexts: porn and casinos for instance. People involved in those activities simply aren't present. They are staring into the void, moving mechanically alongside their most base desires which have been hijacked by an external system.
The best way out is to not engage with those things in the first place, just like one does not bother listening to the contents of a demon’s whisper.
