Dull Reality

"Fantasy has become so high quality, diverse and realist, that reality is starting to look boring." - Thoughts kept

Don't quote me on that. This thought is a result of a few things, and ultimately: Desensitization.

That word has become so prevalent in my life that it might haunt me for a while. Some call it the "mid-life crisis", some simply "depression", but I refuse to accept that. 

The feeling that you don't enjoy things like you used to. Candy isn't as sweet, games aren't as fun, thrill isn't as exciting, sex isn't as rewarding. Too tired to hang out with people, or discover new places; it's just not worth it. Porn, technology, and lately, AI have reinforced this condition. You don't have to travel far to see some breathtaking views. You don't have to work hard in a relationship with someone to see a person naked. You don't even need to leave your room to have fun. Now that I think of it, half of those probably apply to the new generations, raised by technology and the 2020's lockdown. 

I think we should just go out more.
