firehose
Hydrant water cannon
A firehose is a large-diameter hose designed to deliver water at high pressure for firefighting.
Figuratively, a firehose describes any overwhelming flood of information or activity: Drinking from the firehose suggests being overwhelmed by more input than you can process.
The firehose of social media never stops.
To firehose is to blast someone with rapid, continuous output.
