    or is into philosophy or psychology

    That makes people fun?

    I find people of today extremely boring, especially young people

    I think you should take a look at yourself before you call a generation that is experiencing the highest cost of living in modern history, boring.

      Yes, talking to people about something deeper than “lol, look at this meme” is fun.

      I think you should take a look at yourself before you call a generation that is experiencing the highest cost of living in modern history, boring.

      WTF does one have to do with the other…? Are you suggesting that people have zero interests outside of social media because of high cost of living?

      You do realise that libraries are free? That getting a used guitar will cost you all of $50? That getting a pencil and a notebook to start drawing will be, what, $5? Oh yeah, you can even get a pencil for free at an Ikea.

      Computers and music instruments are ridiculously cheap compared to the eighties and nineties. I had to build stuff with broken parts I found in trash (like everybody else who wasn’t rich so the majority of users) and still managed to make much better music with all that Frankenstein equipment than the average young AI slop “artist” of today. And you’re also proving my point regarding philosophy and psychology or anything else that needs more than a few seconds to process. Fits perfectly with studies about declining attention spans.
