      I have ADHD and am lucky enough to be able to dissocciate in certain situations instead of just going insane, but that doesn’t sound like this is what they’re going for. This is just a cultural madness and/or proof of the lizard people.

      In the recent context of air travel, it refers to sitting idly for your entire flight. No books, movies, music, nothing.

        That sounds… horrible, flying sucks enough as-is I have no idea why anyone would subject themselves to even more torture lol

        I could see an argument for a waiting room or being in the bathroom with nothing but your own thoughts…but a potentially multi-hour flight?

    Why do I keep seeing articles about this. Wasn’t it just a meme someone posted about seeing a guy on a plane with no entertainment or anything? Who cares? Good for them not requiring stimulation every moment they’re conscious. I wish I could do that.
