Yeah I am so sick of everyone with headphones on. Parents with headphones on while with young children! Young girls walking with them on through dangerous city neighborhoods! People at work walking through the halls. We are in a sad time.
It’s as if they are under a spell, and they are. It’s all very impersonal and not what humans should be like. Robotic mind control, etc.
And they either ignore another person or seem afraid to interact.
On my walks I notice that the older people, especially seniors like me, love to cheerfully say “Good morning” or even have a short chat.
I see a 90 year old who is in great shape for her age almost every day. She always says something cheerful such as “We have a tailwind today so we can really make good time”. lol
One day soon technology will control the masses. Thus ‘engagement’ in electronics is the groundwork being built for that.
