It's true. Try hanging out somewhere outside your house with no modern technology for two hours.
First you'll realize how long time feels without a smartphone or instant entertainment.
The second thing you'll realize is how hard it is to keep track of time without a wristwatch.
People socialized more in person because there wasn't much else to do and it was the best way to do so.
And everyone has crippling anxiety now lol
Please understand an entire generation was gaslit into believing anyone trying to talk to you in public wanted to drug you, kidnap you, and/or rape you. 😂
In the good old days socially anxious people would just get stabbed in central park.
Truly dark times.
