I read books, played games on consoles, watched TV, phoned my friends (over landline), pursued hobbies, and did random shit like seeing how many different ways I could stack a group of plastic cups. People like to shit-talk boredom, but it’s good to be bored occasionally.
The power supply in my desktop tower shit itself a few months ago and I spent a week without an internet device. There was a fair amount of boredom as I realized how neglected meatspace had become in my area, but this was also a week of peak productivity since I no longer had a nagging feeling of having something better to do all the time. Honestly, it was nice. It’s more convenient to have internet access, but disconnecting is nice.
