Doom Scrolling Chronicles: How We Sold Our Attention to Cat Videos and Clickbait


Overview

Ever wonder how a harmless click on ""Top 10 Cutest Kittens"" turns into a three-hour deep dive on whether your toaster is auditioning for a spy thriller? Welcome to The Doomscrolling Chronicles-a hilariously relatable, painfully accurate exploration of how we sold our attention to cat videos, clickbait, and celebrity fridge feuds. This book exposes the absurdity of our digital lives, from algorithms acting like overzealous butlers to FOMO-fueled Instagram spirals. Think ancient Roman gladiator games-but with memes, chicken sandwiches, and pineapple pizza debates. With wit sharper than your Wi-Fi signal, Amar Grey serves up a firehose of laughs, insights, and practical tips for escaping the algorithm matrix (no tinfoil hat required). So if you've ever found yourself arguing about the color of a dress while missing a global summit on climate change, this is your wake-up call. Read it, laugh at it, and maybe-just maybe-log off. Warning: Contains dangerously funny content that may make you rethink your screen time.

Author Information

Amar Grey is an author, advertising veteran, and cultural critic with over a decade of experience crafting compelling narratives in the fast-paced world of marketing. Having spent years analyzing how media shapes attention and behavior, Amar turned their sharp wit and keen observations toward a new frontier: decoding the absurdities of the digital age. In The Doomscrolling Chronicles, Amar blends humor, insight, and a touch of chaos to explore how our screens hijack our brains-one cat video at a time. A self-proclaimed ""recovering doomscroller,"" Amar writes with the unique perspective of someone who has lived on the frontlines of the attention economy, both as a creator and a consumer. When not unraveling the mysteries of algorithms or challenging clickbait culture, Amar can be found experimenting with music, creating poetic lyrics, and crafting stories that inspire reflection. Through sharp critique and a dash of irreverence, Amar invites readers to laugh, think, and maybe-just maybe-log off for a bit. The Doomscrolling Chronicles is Amar's debut book, a guide to surviving the algorithmic circus and reclaiming your mental bandwidth, one swipe at a time.
