He had a series of nasty epilepsy attacks for a year until they finally were able to do the surgery.
Hope he is okay. Epilepsy is a scary one for me. I don't know much about it though.
I don't think we get bored faster, I think we don't let ourselves get bored anymore.
People fear the boredom, so the first sign of quiet, they look to get noise input to draw their attention from their own mind again.
Both sides of uncomfort, the contact with the other as opposing, are necessary for society. And we're unlearning that at an alarming speed.
And it worries me. Because the less capable we are at dealing with discomfort, the more volatile we become when "threatened".
Have a great beach trip!!!!
My brother is great, the surgery changed his life to the better, and a lot. He exploded afterwards, ate life with two huge spoons and did his very own thing, successfully. A totally changed man.
You're right about the volatility. At the same time, we're getting more and more instinctive/animalistic, so a "threatening" situation might more often responded with violence of any kind.
It does though, make things easier for those who can control themselves. There's an opportunity of superiority there, using the ratio to channel/manipulate the animal in the opponent.
Beach is great! Love it here! Internet is really bad, let's see if upload works...

Tried to upload a picture, let me know if it worked, please 🙃
No picture.
Glad to hear your bro is doing well.
Yes. We have lost any chill we might have gained. The internet rage porn algorithms don't help.
I found a spot where the internet is better, while having a morning coffee... Next try!
I can see them in the preview, so I think it worked 🙃
