That was... a lot of fluff. A 15 year old kid who has "seen everything there is to see on the internet"? I mean, really. This is the exact same 'restlessly disengaged' phenomenon humans have been experiencing since the dawn of the species. It's part of having a complex brain. Other animals probably even have it. There is no end of stuff to do and see! Sometimes you just don't feel like doing anything. And that's okay. It might be better in my mind to consciously redirect, or to take a nap instead of zoning out on a screen, but to each their own.

>A 15 year old kid who has "seen everything there is to see on the internet"? I mean, really. This isn't necessarily a literal statement. There's just so much noise and nonsense to wade through as to be demoralizing. Or the excess stimulus is enough to just turn you off everything, in part why I try to minimize aimless surfing. It may take a conscious effort to stumble upon something of interest.
