Yesterday, I was scrolling through my Facebook feed, keeping my eyes peeled, when I came across an interview with Miley Cyrus. Now, normally I think the Wrecking Ball star is a bit of a wreck herself, but this time was an exception. After a reporter asked, "Does it ever bother you that drugs could hurt your brain?" Miley responded, "You know what hurts your brain? Instagram. You know what hurts your brain? Reading comments on Facebook." And while I don't support Miley's public drug use, I think she made a very valuable statement about social media and our society's drug-like dependence on it.
