>>37830225Though I hear that being a source for the sometimes-animalistic hatred of spoilers, personally I never had a strong aversion to being spoiled. Even then, I don't actively participate in social media in the mainstream sense.
Personally I think at least a good portion of it is just my stress response. Ironically, when I am stressed or anxious, I actually DON'T hide myself in games or movies or such. I actually do the opposite, feeling like it's wrong to waste my time on anything absorbing. Ironically this leads me to spend undue amounts of time on the internet, browsing, doing nothing, often even reading up on things I wanna do instead of doing them.
Either way, my ability to just lose myself in something for a few hours a day seems long gone now...
