Anyone remember the COVID lockdowns?

And the number of people that went cranky-insane?

That's a lite simulation of being alone

That was largely a consequence of being alone while also being trapped within what is, as it turns out, basically a glorified large box. Going cranky-insane in the great outdoors is a whole other kettle of fish.

Our own mental traps we set for ourselves or for each other. Very few things are of grave consequence, we just forgot to look for the signs or pay attention to what is going on around us. So, to keep the scam going, we elaborate on the broken systems we've been dealt at birth. But in our deepest of depths, we actually know what matters and what doesn't. It just becomes harder and harder to break from that vicious cycle and look for our own path. A path which more often than not leads back to nature. However, we kinda fucked things up a bit there, going as far as to screw up the magnetic poles of this beautiful planet we all share, thus becoming harder and harder to see through the illusion of what truly means to be human.

No worries, I'm an introvert. You know the horror that extroverts felt during lockdown? That's our normal, covid was just a break from hell

I think that was more of being alone and locked inside with no options, freedom was limited at least in my country.
