I'm beginning to realise that there is a difference between distracting the mind, and numbing the mind. I very much dedicate unreasonable amounts of time to distracting my mind and keeping it occupied with songs and dances, bread and circuses, to the point that it's practically a job of its own. Instead of helping me, all this does is drain so much brain power that there's little space or power left for more important things. No man should be using Excel spreadsheets to plan his hobbies out, that is as red a flag as any. I need to relearn how to numb the mind again, just a bit. Maybe get into those shitty 10+ hour YouTube videos narrated by other losers with too much time on their hands.

Because it will inevitably become paid + ads.
Just like cable, just like streaming.
Why bother financially contributing to such a future?
