Not sure how to explain this but I tried to sound like Johnny Depp-as-Raoul Duke-as-Hunter S. Thompson but it came out like Maurice LaMarche-as-Orson Welles-as-Charles Foster Kane
It's helpful, I think, to understand this dynamic: That being introverted / shy / a loner / etc are all real things, but those impulses can be radically magnified by constant entertainment at your fingertips 24/7, and even if that *feels* good, it's likely not good.
