Uhhhh because that’s where I live
Why go out when you just have to come back home anyway. Save the trip.
All Day?
Those are rookie numbers
This is a lie.
Otherwise he would have said “here” instead of “there”.
Got no choice. My dad has developed dementia, and I refuse to put him in a home until he is completely mindless.
I’m scared only because my health benefits ran out two months ago. But don’t worry pops, I got you.
Cause when you stay at home, you become comfortable with it and also keep making things better and better. You have full control over your experience so you end up optimizing it.
When you go out to say a coffee shop, that’s optimized for the owner to make the most money.
It really took me the longest time to realise that a huge percentage of people that need to go outside as much as possible do so because they feel unhappy at home (‘home’ as literal dwelling I mean, they don’t know what to do there, aren’t happy with or can’t be by themselves, don’t enjoy their immediate home environment & stuff they have in it, etc).
I enjoy my house, and my things, and use them often. I enjoy my home life. I still feel the need to go out and experience the world beyond my tiny bubble. I get great joy simply out of breaking up my routine, meeting new people, seeing new places, going to local gathering spots. When I am done with all that I also have the benefit of socializing without having a pile of dishes to do either.
Your assessment is right for some people, and you probably have contact with a group that leads to a bias in believing this is what people, generally, who need to do things beyond their house, are like. It is not true for most though. Most people like their homes, and home lives, a lot. They also feel the need to go out and do something other than home life, regularly, in order to be happy, in the long term. Doesn’t matter how awesome my house is, doesn’t matter how many skills I am working on, or how many hobbies I have, if I don’t do something out of the ordinary, on a fairly regular basis, life begins to feel dull, and no amount of improving my home will alleviate that.
I play music, games, code , read. Just with music alone I’m already home stuck because of my work schedule. Seriously there is so much in piano technique that with a full time job ur pretty much going straight home and practicing.
Given you care about your hobbies.
yeah, and the modern world revolves around them.
Home is the best, if you can’t stay home and be happy you need to change your home
Having seen how so called extroverts where seemingly going insane 4 years ago, I at this point assume they don’t like their own home for some reason
I think it’s an issue with entertaining themselves. Extroverts seek entertainment through social interaction while introverts tend to be able to entertain themselves just fine.
Even my introverted friends were getting stir crazy in 2020. By the end of that year I was the only one I knew who was still perfectly content to be snuggled under a blanket putzing around online all day… I mean working from home.
My gamer friends and I had the best of times, we were back to being teenagers
i saw my friends kinda go nuts too
it was surreal
It was really weird to me too. Like, if you don’t like your home and being by yourself, maybe you’re not a good influence on others.
- Work from home.
- Can wear whatever I want.
- Lots of food and can cook whatever I want.
- A/C temp the way I want it.
- Comfort of my own bathroom and toilet.
- Lots of entertainment options (streaming/TV, laptop/PC, games).
- My hobby is indoors (music).
- Don’t have to spend money just to hang around.
Don’t have to spend money just to hang around.
Not to mention there are no more third spaces. When we leave our home, besides going to a park or something, you’re expected to pay at almost all establishments you go to. As in, you have to pay rent to use infrastructure you don’t own, so why not just stay at home since you’ve already paid for using that.
i would never leave if i didn’t have to eat and make money to eat
Almost made it a whole week but my stupid wife needs a ride to the craft store
Please tell us more about this stupid wife.
I drove her to the stupid craft store, but first we stopped and had some stupid Vietnamese for lunch, and then afterwards picked up some stupid eggs at the stupid grocery store so I could make some stupid brownies later.
I wouldn’t mind giving your wife a ride.
Try it.
I’m starting to see how the Gisèle Pelicot case started
Is the chauffer job still available? I’d like to audition as well.
Craft store is fun! Get some stuff to decorate your “command center.”
Excuse me but it’s my lab in my dungeon thank you very much
I always think of my area as a command center because of:
The Warlock: Why did you bring a cop to my command center?
John McClane : Command center? It’s a basement!
I’ll have you know that my lab is in the basement of my own house
Fair enough!
So when are you gonna come and hang out
Can’t! I’m grounded for running up my mom’s electric bills!
The dream…
For me it’s called depression and anxiety.
I get that from having to leave my house and go to work.
Also there are people out there. Fuck that.
Being an introverted homebody has always been my personality, but now that I work from home I’m starting to feel this. I don’t have too many hobbies outside the house, but boy does it make me miserable when I’m just in my room all day.
I’m a home body in most cases but if I stay too long I still get stir crazy. Can only exist in cave troll mode for so long.
