Boredom

Kaleb Horton was an American writer who died in September last year. He had an extraordinarily unique writer's voice, reviewing music, describing culture, and observing life in the 2020s. This paragraph, and particularly the last sentence, is one that keeps rattling in my head:

You can’t help anybody when you’re exhausted and keep posting one million college-educated rewordings of “I would love to be dead right now” on the computer. Walk away from the thing and try out some of those normal things you hear about and if you get bored that’s wonderful because we’re not supposed to get bored anymore. It turns out boredom is the Cadillac of feelings.
