Nope, this is not just a cranky old guy rant. This is actual medical science. Facebook destroys your life both emotionally and physically. There has now been a clinical study involving professors from Yale and UC San Diego proving this very thing. Even the Harvard Business Review has been weighing in on this.
Before long we will get a larger, more formal study which may come up with one of those trendy catch-phrases like they did for tobacco.

I wonder just how many minutes off your life Facebook takes?
One would suppose the health risk is higher for those trapped at a job far away from home. They end up spending too much time online.

Once social distancing is over, try actual social contact. Meet people strange to you, in person, not over a keyboard. Leave the (*&)(*&ing iDiot phone at home! You should actually look at them while speaking. Just think twice before meeting them at Burger King.
Every single minute you spend on Facebook is a minute of life you have lost. So it’s a 1-to-1 correlation
