Well, it's sort of possible to compress large things into small sizes. But I don't think it would work for this situation.

There are things called ".zip bombs". Where an otherwise small file, when unpacked, can take up a large amount of space.

A famous example of a zip bomb is titled 42.zip, which is a zip file of unknown authorship consisting of 42 kilobytes of compressed data, containing five layers of nested zip files in sets of 16, each bottom-layer archive containing a 4.3-gigabyte file for a total of 4.5 petabytes of uncompressed data.

Nothing. Anyone who uses the Death note cannot go to heaven or hell. That would basically confirm the existence of heaven and hell. My understanding is that heaven is infinite. Nothing in this finite world would be worth risking infinity in paradise. I would take it, chat with a god of death, ask many questions, and then decline.

Of course Elon and Trump, who represent the worst of America, have the audacity to say:

The federal workforce should be comprised of the best America has to offer.

The first word in social media is "social". People typically post on social media because they want to socialize in one way or another.

It's like an episode of Black Mirror.

Not everyone is equally educated on grammar. Not everyone cares about using proper grammar.

If you're asking for a deeper sociological or psychological reason, then grab some books on education disparity, poverty, public schooling, etc.
