1 year agoI was thinking about it yesterday and I think part of it is that the binge process misses a few key things that otherwise wouldn’t if you don’t rush through. Like how people binge through stuff on Netflix because they’re so excited for their favorite show that they marathon it, but don’t absorb what they just watched because they did it so fast.
The problem is I can’t stop myself from taking it all in like that. I just love my interests so much and life is hard enough without them.
I can see some people having a hard time sitting through the Spider-verse movies since they’re so flashy. But yeah sometimes when I’m watching a movie I have a hard time following along with everything. I sometimes have to tell myself that it’s ok to glaze over and miss some details just so I don’t stress myself out.
