Not to gatekeep but this comment was so profound, I cried.
"This makes you realize that you're taking color(vision) for granted.
There are people who not only are colorblind
but are completely blind-- blind from birth.
And I'm just sitting here, like, "Oh, I'm so bored."
And I'm surrounded by colors!"

Ennui is bullshit.
You don't get the privilege/right to say, "I'm bored." Ever.

- SketchySeaBeast 6y agoJust because some people have it "worse" doesn't mean anything. If that were the case we can never be sad / lonely / scared / depressed / disappointed because we're not a lone caveman starving to death. Yes we can. Every experience is from your own perspective. You can appreciate that others have a worse time of it and still feel your emotions. You're not denying someone else of their feelings if you have your own.
- dkersten 6y agoDisagree. Boredom is an important part of life. We need boredom to become creative.
