There are all sorts of people who decry the internet's existence (while using it) and it strikes me as a bit absurd.
They're not obligated to visit any particular sites. They can find a community for anything they can think of. They don't even need to use traditional social media. They could be completely passive consumers and have more video on YouTube than they can watch in their lifetime.
Hell, more video gets uploaded to YouTube in a day than you can watch in a lifetime.
I would never want to go back. On some things, yeah, probably.
But this is an amazing time like no other, to say the least, for learning and growing.
And it's free. Those who don't take advantage of it will be left behind.
In the 90s I wanted to buy a wolf hybrid. I waited for days while hard copy photos were sent to me.
Now, well, it's incredible.
Guitar chords at your fingertips, the answers to question in moments, that recipe you need, right there.
One could go on and on.
All that knowledge and people post pictures of cats.
Indeed! What a terrible waste.
BTW (I won't keep talking, gotta go somewhere), I was on Suboxone as well, for maybe five years, it made me so depressed and unmotivated that I finally had to get off, you seem to stay motivated though, has it bothered you in that way at all?
