abusive para-social relationship

When you're manipulated by a content creator into thinking they're a good person but then you find out they're like a sex perfect or wife beating psycho, all the while you defended them without realizing they were taking advantage of you. Until they finally get exposed/canceled and your friend finally rescues you from said para-social relationship and you finally stop following them after all these years.

Nate - Man i used to watch Destiny all the time, but ever since the minor sexting and revenge porn I've kinda stopped following.
Kyra - really? you're finally getting out of that abusive para-social relationship?

Taking a break from social media

She or he is not really taking a break off social media. They are no longer interested in you. You have become a secondary option, a Plan B, the gay best friend. You chump.

Boy: "I haven't seen or heard from you in a week, how you been?"
Girl: "Yeah, I been taking a break from social media. Thanks for helping me return my AC unit. I'll buy you coffee!"

Hard Problem of the Social Sciences

The prediction problem. Unlike in physics, where you can isolate variables and predict an eclipse to the second, social sciences (economics, political science, sociology) deal with complex, reflexive systems. Humans react to predictions, changing the outcome (the "Lucas Critique"). The hard problem is: Can you have a real science of human society if its core subjects alter their behavior upon hearing your findings? True scientific laws are supposed to be invariant. Social "laws" are more like trends that expire once people know about them, making the field perpetually one step behind a moving target.

Example: An economist develops a perfect model predicting stock market crashes. Once published, investors see it and adjust their behavior to avoid the predicted conditions, thereby preventing the very crash the model forecasted. The model is now wrong. The hard problem: The act of studying the system changes it. This makes falsification—the bedrock of science—incredibly tricky. Social science thus often ends up explaining the past very well (postdiction) but failing at predicting the future, which is what we usually want from a science. Hard Problem of the Social Sciences.
