A common money-making tactic employed by quality content creators, especially those found on platforms like TikTok. Sponsorblasting consists of occasional sponsored content produced periodically, used primarily by affluent content creators to make modest amounts of money in short bursts off of the views they get.
It may seem like an ineffective concept, but it's incredibly effective at increasing user retention in practice. The sporadic approach that sponsorblasting takes towards monetization can often increase user retention via classical conditioning techniques. Through psychological concepts that won't be discussed here, sponsorblasting both traumatizes viewers and creates patterns of addiction that maintain a firm grip on them in spite of the negative mental health impacts of the presented content.

Sponsorblasting is a common tactic employed by affluent TikTok wagyuposters such as Nick DiGiovanni and itsQCP in order to rake in money from sponsorships while increasing user retention. These sorts of psychological guerilla marketing techniques often create intense dependencies for viewers, severely harming their mental health and forcing them into a vicious cycle of further contribution and monodependency. The lack of governmental regulation against these sorts of practices is a common contributor to widespread mental health issues for younger generations.

Get the Inside joke mug.The most abrasive and mutually damning insult on the internet. Telling someone to go get a job implies telling them to end their continued presence on the internet and actually become a useful member of society instead of being a deadweight who sits inside all day arguing with people over trivial matters online. Telling someone to go get a job is tantamount to telling them to throw their entire life away and start anew in an unfamiliar and discomforting position.

2. I'm tired of my psychology getting in the way of me living my life, so I've been doing some pretty heavy parapsychology lately, trying to get to the core of the issues I've been having.

Get the Parapsychology mug.A nap taken at midday that one awakens from at an obscene hour, throwing off their sleep schedule. Common among neo-neckbeards and other such individuals.

Get the nap mug.Excessive openness of a group in fear of cultural exclusivity. Often flounders in the face of questions regarding cultural identity, and acts as a political caveat to prevent the policing of deleterious behaviors. (cf. Gatekeeping)
Coping with severe discrimination online, most furries and the online communities they manage are rife with policies of hyperinclusion. They shut down any semblance of 'gatekeeping' in an effort to make their communities as wholesome as possible. Aside from the cultural dilution that naturally occurs as of a result of this sort of philosophy, this can add a thick layer of arguably superfluous red tape to many instances of judicial action, resulting in sluggish moderator action and minor server corruption.

Get the Hyperinclusion mug.A psychological technique that can increase dream recall rates over time, useful for healing from depression or trauma. Dream priming involves saying to yourself out loud before you go to sleep something along the lines of "If I have an epiphany during my dreams, I will wake up before my mind forgets the dream so I can ponder it more thoroughly."
To escape the confines of your mind, you must first listen to your heart. The mind may need to relearn this ability in typical cases of post-traumatic depression, which is where dreams come in significantly handy. While dreaming, the mind is truly able to wander free without being stifled by conscious thought. However, dreams are naturally forgotten in the course of natural awakening from sleep. Dreams are only remembered upon awakening when one awakens before their dreams can be naturally discarded from memory. As such, one must make an intentional effort to recall their dreams in order to make the best use of them. Dream priming is an excellent way to accomplish this, though it does take a certain degree of practice to master such a skill.
The most basic way to prime your subconscious for this dream recording process is to give yourself verbal instructions before going to sleep. "To escape the confines of my mind, I must first listen to my heart. If my dreams present a worthy path for me to take, or an epiphany worth contemplating further, I will awaken before my mind can discard the memory." Any variation of such a phrase can suffice as long as it is relatively cogent and spoken out loud to maximize mental retention rates.
