I've separated them purposefully because I think there's an important semantic distinction. The boredom you describe is driven by disinterest due to neurochemical dysfunction.

That's distinct from boredom as a state of mind which assumes or asserts that curiosity, entertainment, etc, are presented and consumed. There is not necessarily a chemical imbalance imposing this state on the mind.

If you like, you could reword the sentiment as; only boring people are bored (and those with depression are not necessarily boring).

I've considered that phrasing previously but found it diminishes the concept.

The reason this is attracting flame is mostly that you've included assertions in your question.

There is no "right" way to experience art, people with ADHD are not a monolith, and ADHD is symptomatically diverse.

I believe the heart of your question, if presented in good faith, is "do people who experience movies differently than I do still enjoy movies?" and the only correct answer is: it depends on the person.

It has nothing to do with money. This is something people will struggle with sans agriculture and in a perfect gift economy utopia.

Only boring people are bored (and depression is not boredom).

Boo. 👍

Congratulations! By reading this message you've finished the game. It's over and cannot be restarted unless you provide written consent that you would like to participate again. Thank you for playing, I'm sorry, and you're welcome.

Using an LLM I'd wager.

The tour is quite comprehensive.

I'm the other one!

That's because it is a hoax. There are many good educational resources which walk laymen through the details. Here's one recent video I've directed folks to previously:

Not that I have any say in the matter but I think this kind of question is fine for the selfhost community. It's still in the spirit of "how to do xyz with my own hardware / less dependence on a third party".

The other suggestions have covered my own. I did want to add that good resources for finding these kinds of tools are often called Awesome lists. Awesome self-hosted. Awesome CLI. Awesome social media. You get it. I'm not sure where the trend started but I stumbled on them after getting fed up with the likes of Slashdot and AlternativeTo.

They're usually a community-maintained git repo on one of the major platforms. This list has quite a few hits for "YouTube", for instance: https://github.com/krzemienski/awesome-video

Dan McClellan has addressed white christian nationalist abuse of biblical literature to marionette the cadavers they parade as ideology before. I'm hoping he'll provide a similar professional public eviscerstion for this as well.

I know this feeling. I'm not a doctor and I can't offer a thorough explanation. I am prompted to share my experience though in the hope that you find it helpful.

For a long time I was focused on forcing the yawn or otherwise putting effort into it as you described. What I realized was that the missing ingredient was the depth of my breath. My body is trying to relax, initiated a semi-autonomous routine to do that, and I'm interrupting it.

When I'm too tense I have trouble yawning. If that's happening the only sure way I've found to satisfy the yawn is to drop my shoulders, breathe from my stomach first, and let the yawn take over. Sometimes the jaw still ends up pushing open quite wide. Sometimes not. The key is that I'm not trying to control it either way.

Now it feels as odd to force my own yawn as it does to overthink my own breathing. The only viable solution seems to be giving up on control over it and letting my body go on autopilot instead.
