Social media may prevent users from reaping creative rewards of profound boredom
There's a brazillian song called Tédio (Boredom) that was popular in the 80's. It talks about not withstanding boredom inside home, while life goes on out there. It's curious how the depicted feeling is so unrelatable today.I think boredom is a real force that pushes ourselves to the edge, to hopefully make a change in life, like going out to see real people.Social media creates this cozy, safe place to keep your mind occupied, letting life pass without realizing it.
