If I didn't have dogs it'd be way easier. Or at least, if I had a backyard again for them.

I don't care so much about things. I need my friends.
That's easy to fix. Invite your friends over to hang out at your place.
Yup. Same same. That's where my stuff is, I don't need anything or anyone else.
Well, you see, I fill my house with things I like, and people I love, so being there is enjoyable.
I suppose if your house is full of things you hate and people you dislike, then you would want to leave.
I don't know. It's just not something I stress over.
Spending time with young kids is a big draw to be home
Strangely strong reactions here to someone suggesting that going outside might be healthy. There's a reason why "touch grass" exists as a phrase.
I can agree with you about this specific post (without knowing the tone of the question, it could be earnest rather than insulting), but I've always found the "touch grass" saying to be condescending af.
SHUT UP YOU CANT MAKE ME
The post did not make any positive encouragement, make a case for mental health, or even make a suggestion. It came in as an accusation that anyone who chooses to live that way is abnormal. By definition it was a microaggression, so triggered people are reflex responding.
Frankly I think that if you feel called out by this post it has more to do with you than the original poster. "How do people not go crazy if they're stuck inside too long" is not a novel sentiment.
How do people go out and do stuff ALL day?
Coffe and alcohol.
That toilet has a warm bidet and the other ones don't or are COLD
Uhhhh because that’s where I live
All Day?
Those are rookie numbers
IKR. I'm at home at least 30 hours per day.
What do you do in the other 6 hours??
Why go out when you just have to come back home anyway. Save the trip.
Got no choice. My dad has developed dementia, and I refuse to put him in a home until he is completely mindless.
I'm scared only because my health benefits ran out two months ago. But don't worry pops, I got you.
Cause when you stay at home, you become comfortable with it and also keep making things better and better. You have full control over your experience so you end up optimizing it.
When you go out to say a coffee shop, that’s optimized for the owner to make the most money.
