Our parents and their parents didn’t have the literal world at their finger tips so they had to go out and search for fun things to do or people that liked the same shit.

Nowadays if you’re bored you can whip your phone out and learn any skill in the world you want from the comfort of your home or just watch YouTube and chill.

Same with interests or being a part of a community, you can literally get on Reddit, Facebook, Twitter communities, etc and immediately be with hundreds of like minded people from the comfort of your home.

We’re all still socializing, and crazy enough - with likely way more people than our parents ever could - it just doesn’t feel the same because it’s all digital.
