Discussion Escapism

[Hoppipolla]

It's a crazy thing isn't it really?

You can spend years of your life in a fantasy world (via games, movies, books, whatever) and... whilst it may help you to feel better if you don't like your real life, when you look back... you can't help but feel like at least to some degree that time was wasted.

This is how I've been feeling anyway. Don't get me wrong I love my games and movies and all the rest and they're definitely not a complete waste of time, but they're not a substitute for having a nice real life.

I just wondered what you guys thought about this topic

I don’t know what to use for escapism.

I don’t know what to use for escapism.

I think for me it's mostly video games and youtube.

it's debatable to what degree time like that is "wasted" I think.

do you really never explore any fantasy or virtual things?

Real life is overrated. Normies are back stabbing vultures.
