My headphones, they save my life

I’ve said before that switching headphones gives five percent of the benefits (attention, awareness, mindfulness) that going fully phoneless would give for one percent of the effort which is a 400% savings that I’ve applied in my own life and I more often than not (but not always) had headphones with a podcast, an audio book, or music. (I.e. it’s 95% as bad as phones, 99% as satisfying and unboring.)

But.

I see a lot of people with both. 🤦🏻‍♀️ Both headphones on and staring into glowyglowy.

So that’s 195% of the badness of phones. Almost twice as bad. Good job. 😭 Might as well strap on a VR helmet, oven mitts, and a ballgag at that point.

Enh, I realize I’m being judgy rather than constructive or solution oriented. Just so sick of glowyglowy.
