>start a movie>it's very good, impeccable setup, great visuals, compelling characters, good atmosphere>have to turn it off because feel like I'm not in the mood to appreciate such a good movieAnyone else have this problem? What causes this? Pic maybe somewhat related.
>>221247343yes, try watching it with someone else in screenshare on discord
>>221247343>antonym of everything described on picAnd what do you get? A psychopathic child.
>>221247343What's the angle of demonizing all the traits that make humans humans?
>>221247371This is solid advice. For some reason add brains do better with company
Yes. I've experienced this, like I'm not in the mood to give it the full contemplative attention it deserves. Sometimes I'm just in the mood for easy viewing slop I guess.
>start a movie>it's very goodlies
>>221247343I sometimes experience the opposite; I often will put on a movie to watch sort of out of the corner of my eye while I'm doing something else, but if it's really good then I'll (unconsciously) stop whatever else I'm doing and focus solely on the movie.
>>221247343Sometimes, I have ADHD too. I find if I'm not in the mood for that particular movie I pivot genres to something that requires less mental capacity. if I set my mind to watching something it's hard not to end up finishing something.
>>221247343Yes it’s because you’re so used to being numb that being emotionally influenced is subconsciously intimidating. Same reason why you don’t ask girls for dates.

All kids are like this fairly often.t. worked in primary schools.

>if you aren't a good goy.. you are mentally ill!it's funny any personality that isn't compliant and utterly cattle-like is demonized in american psychiatry
To be fair, sometimes an inability to focus, even when trying, can make it difficult to function in daily life. It can reach a point where the impact is close to having dementia.
>>221247390>Highly focused>Present>Attentive>Patient>Listens>Meticulous>Sensible>PatientYeah bro, a total psychopath. Sounds like a precocious child.
>>221247343ADHD is just a marketing program to sell drugs
>>221247904>calculating and manipulativethat's not how kids act
>>221247918there are interesting theories about the reasons for it existing but i agree the way it's dealt with is badhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hunter_versus_farmer_hypothesis
>>221247371>>221247405What if I have no friends?But yes I sort of know what you say works because I can get so many chores done with a podcast on with people talking, provided I'm interested in the subject matter. But I can't exactly have a podcast on while watching a movie.Man maybe AI robot companions could help with making it easier to watch movies.>>221247462I can't do this. I feel compelled to give every movie I'm "supposed to like" (subject matter or genre I typically enjoy) my full attention so I can give it a 'fair unbiased chance' and a proper analysis.>>221247472I don't think that's it. Numbness and emotional influence aren't mutually exclusive phenomena.I almost obsessively latch onto emotional influences, which leads to numbness.Like I've been listening to Bo Burnham's That Funny Feeling on loop for weeks now.
