Begging I presume. I don't know how it is in the States, but here in Europe there's a solid enough support system that there's no need to beg for cash.

I have to agree. It seems like media in general is trying to get as many views/ clicks as possible and sadly negative information tends to garner more attention.
In addition to ignoring the news, it also helps to sift through what type of content we consume.
But personally, I found that a key factor is balance - being physically active, while constraining media time down to an hour or less. I don't just mean exercise here, but rather anything physical, like doing the dishes or doing a puzzle as a hobby.
Anything analogue can clear your mind and improve your general mood.
I believe this will be the course to avoid the dead internet. Even in my country, all of banking and voting is either done via ID card connected to a computer or the use of "Mobile ID". It can be private, but like you said, it probably won't.
Come to think of it, I agree. Regarding the experiment with eggs, I distinctly remember the soda laden egg being submerged in the liquid for 24/7, where as the other egg received water and toothpaste. Perhaps a more accurate and interesting experiment would be to wash the tooth with soda and every morning/ evening wash it with toothpaste? Theoretically this can still show how important brushing is, if toothpaste really helps combat the acids from cola.
One of the most infamous experiments is submerging the tooth in cola, to show the importance of brushing. In primary school, it was done on white eggs though, but using a tooth would be more authentic. Ironically, while the tooth should completely rot in cola, the liquid is perfect for washing household things (the sink or a toilet bowl for example).
