Good grief, this is depressing.

Some 41 percent of people around the world get their news from Facebook each week, a number that towers over Twitter (at 11 percent) despite the media’s obsession with the Twitterverse.

I’m not surprised, really, but I feel a way for which there is no word in English. Like when you drop your ice cream cone but you don’t even like that flavor but are still sad it’s on the microbe-ridden macadam. And oh yeah, everyone is an idiot. That too.

Facebook is the best method for surveillance and social control ever invented. If they weren’t completely in bed with the NSA, FBI and others I’d be utterly shocked.
