I don’t bother talking to them, generally. It’s a fairly good metric to determine if someone is worth my time. Time is my most precious resource: I have very little of it free, and what little I do have, I’ve no desire to spend with people who are glued to their phones desperately searching for a dopamine hit whilst they’re already hanging out IRL.

Doomscrolling is real, and it’s addictive as fuck.
