It’s called curiosity Gathering information about your environment And also social interaction. Can’t be solitary hunter 24/7. Men’s brains seem to be far better suited to embrace long abstract solitary activity (like math or programming) than women’s, on average and also at the extreme ends. Probably because of evolutionary psychology. But still even men have limits and need to take a break from sustained solitary activity, and socialize. Even if the actual socialization doesn’t produce any long-term deliverables, it helps center you psychologically. Given the rise in remote work, I wouldn’t be surprised if FB/Apple hijack that to move interactions from the watercooler to the “metaverse”. I already see a lot of young men (not women btw) “wasting” hours on various Discord gamer / political voice chats. https://emilkirkegaard.dk/en/wp-content/uploads/Is-There-Any... |
