I WAS JUST PASSING BYNow that everyone records themselves at any given moment, it’s inevitable that, purely by statistics, situations that would have gone unnoticed before are now captured on camera. What used to remain as a fleeting memory for a few witnesses can now be recorded forever and shared with the entire world.
Every day, thousands of people hit the record button without knowing that, behind them, the universe is about to do its thing. Impossible coincidences, ridiculous accidents, perfectly synchronized moments that look scripted… The combination of millions of phones filming at all times and sheer randomness makes the improbable seem almost routine.
And so, without meaning to, the main subject of a video selfie ends up capturing the exact moment when someone in the background becomes the real star of the clip. A casual gesture that sets off a chain reaction, a distraction that leads to an unexpected collision, or simply that perfect instant when everything aligns to create a moment of pure chaos.
Before, these moments were just stories told over drinks at a bar. Now, thanks to cameras always rolling, we have undeniable proof that the world is a perfect blend of chaos, physics, and space-time coincidences that align at just the right moment to change, even if only for a second, the fate of those involved.

IT’S ME, ME, ME, AND THEN ME AGAINWhy do so many people feel the need to share everything they do on social media?
For many, the urge to post every aspect of their lives online stems from a desire for validation or approval. The "likes" and comments serve as a kind of positive reinforcement that makes them feel good about themselves. Each interaction acts like a small dose of dopamine, making it hard to resist the urge to keep sharing.
Social media also allows people to build and display an idealized version of their lives, a sort of digital showcase where everything looks perfect. This might be driven by a narcissistic tendency, where the goal is to attract attention and stand out from the crowd. The pursuit of that "perfect" public image becomes a form of self-affirmation, even if it doesn’t fully align with reality.
It’s a way to compete with others, trying to prove that their life is more interesting or exciting. In many cases, the need to share becomes an endless cycle of comparison and competition, where what really matters is not what is actually lived, but how it is presented to the world.
