I don’t see the point of television these days, especially if you have easy access to internet. I have almost no clue of what’s happening in the world except the big global stuff, nevermind my country. We’re getting poorer, less jobs, yadayada… I bet that’s what’s going on in the news.

And I don’t watch media, I rather watch clips of movies I grew up with on YouTube.

    I started watching again after moving in with my now wife. Fortunately our TV has a recording function, which has the benefit of being able to fast forward through commercials.

    That way I can mitigate the horror that are ads. Otherwise I’d refuse to watch tbh

      Every once in a while I turn on actual television — usually when I stay in a hotel. I’m always completely blown away by the number of ads. It’s almost a joke at this point. Sorry. I don’t have the attention span for 5 minute ad breaks anymore. It’s like equal parts show and ads too.
