People scroll their phones for the same reason they used to channel surf of flip through magazines not really reading anything. Most people, neurotypical or not, do not have the energy or time for hobbies after work, household chores and taking care of their kids/older relatives. It’s not a character flaw, most people would probably love to have the time to take up wood carving or whatever.
im working on not phone scrolling anymore and i realized a root of my behaviour was having to give up on many hobbies my neurodigvergent brain loved in favour of what neurotypicals considered acceptable and phone is my only way to get dopamine. this is why coexisting with neurotypicals is so exhausting they torture us in such tiny ways and since they largely dont have a lick of class conciousness they just peer pressure us into behaviours that help corporations get their profits
Who are the pro-doomscrolling neurotypicals who are torturously peer pressuring you out of building model trains? Normies have been playing DnD and watching superhero and fantasy shit for like 15 years. I meet more people who are into niche board games than I meet people who watch football.
Replace nothing with phone scrolling or watching/betting on sports and you’re not far off from what I’ve seen
