I don't enjoy drinking sessions anymore

‌
Lately, I've been finding myself at various drinking sessions.
I didn't really want to attend, but there were situations in organizational life where I simply couldn't avoid them.
Because of that, I haven't even been able to go for my morning runs...
Anyway, what I've noticed during these gatherings is...
Since so many people are addicted to Shorts these days, you can see it even during drinking sessions.
Even when we are having a conversation, instead of immersing ourselves in a deep discussion,
the topics just flip rapidly from one thing to another.
Even when I try to have a meaningful conversation, the topic has already moved far away.
I feel empty once it's over. I suppose some people might enjoy those kinds of gatherings, but...
It's just a continuous stream of meaningless, superficial talk.
It feels like I've just spent two hours mindlessly watching Shorts.
