Basically, I can’t figure out the appeal or Tiktok and other types of repetitive media consumption where you are doing the same thing over and over and over. I remember trying it out and just being so bored and frustrated with the entire thing.

I feel the same way about TV shows, and restaurants and all that too. Going to the same place every Friday night and getting the same order and watching the same TV show on repeat just sounds like hell to me.

Or hanging out and talking about the same topics over and over and over, with never a new or novel thing to say, drinking the same beer/wine/cocktail over and over.

What is the appeal of living this way?

    Yeah I’m talking about people who like… don’t do that. Whose primary leisure is to do nothing other than passive consumption.

    Flow state is an activity that requires focus and often skill.
