Sometimes I can't sleep. And then I watch an hour. And maybe the next day another hour. Maybe if I think long enough about the interviews then I recognize what makes them special. Somehow I know that sometimes the length makes them special in a way a short interview couldn't do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does it enhance your life? Or are you mostly ignorant about trends and live a happy and, some people would say, ignorant life? I'm 56 years old and have all of the same interests I've had since I was 18, plus a load more things that are new. So yes, I am very active on all social media, keeping my self up to date with trends in music, fashion, technology etc I'm the same person I was at 18 and basically I'm trying to stay 18 for as long as I can.

swm59nj Posted July 18, 2023 Share Posted July 18, 2023 I keep up with current events, news, etc. I’m not a big fan of Instagram, Facebook, especially Twitter. A person is going to do and keep up what interests them. Just because a person has no interest in certain things. Doesn’t make them ignorant. Now if a person says they have no interest in anything. Except for booze, being a recluse, and complaining. I would say that’s an issue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks I trust what you write, I don't want to look at it. I have to admit I know such a person who watches videos from other people eating, my gf does that. My gf is a good cook, and sometimes she watches videos how people prepare food. Fine. But watching how other people stuff their faces with a microphone setup to amplify all those eating noises? Disgusting. But she, and others, watch it. Amazing... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When Big Brother was a "thing" on tv, they'd keep showing it when they were all asleep. NB I would never ever actually turn on such a nauseatingly banal show, but it was on in a shop window and I was waiting for a bus at the time.

Went cycling for 25km this morning including 2 big hills, I'm pretty much done for the day and will sit around drinking and fiddling around on the internet/movies/music while lazing on the sofa. Normal day for a retired person IMHO. Mu only further obligation today is to collect my kid from school at 4pm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spidermike007 Posted July 19, 2023 Share Posted July 19, 2023 I am online alot, but don't care for Twitter, or Instagram, and refuse to watch Tiktok. I abhor the whole viral nonsense thing. It is a symbol of a declining culture. The more popular something is, the less interest I have in it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just leave things alone and let nature take its course, it's a much better idea, we don't all have to suffer. millions of years of human existence and some people still build villages 10 miles or more from water! There is no point or future in helping people like that.

There is no point or future in helping people like that. I saw a video where they talked about issues like that. 100 years ago, many people died in natural disasters. Now very few (relatively speaking) die. And often the people suffer who built i.e. near the sea and then a tornado destroys their house. Years ago, people were smart enough not to build houses in risk locations like that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
