And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.

Constant stimulation is something we are apparently hard wired to desire
I am elated to read that some government people are seriously considering (more or less) forcing parents to limit their children online time. It is a very real and very serious mental health issue.
Why bother eating out as a group if there is no conversation between each other, breakfast, lunch & dinner table should have a no phone clause. Put it away, turn it off.
So...at holidays I've got half the people coming over with their nose buried in their phones. To some extent, after everyone is full of Turkey, it's fine. But there's a limit.
Gotta be a line somewhere about life passing them by.
