The way I see it anything short of habitual or occupational exposure to "things known to be bad, but not so bad you can tell without statistics" is probably less bad for me than whatever my blood pressure would be if I gave a crap about everything that's statistically bad.


Also probably a higher net positive to go out and make some friends and have a drink than sit at home and watching YouTube nonsense.
