That's what screen addiction, porn addiction, drug addiction, etc is all about. That fast dopamine hit and instant gratification. No one understands delayed gratification these days and I remember it being taught in school ffs.
I say this as I play with my phone. So... Pot, kettle, black or whatever.
That's racist
Unearned is theft. It steals happiness from the future.
Where? Against kitchenware?
Just because the pot is black doesn't mean the kettle can't have dopamine ok
Dopamine isn't the reward itself, it's the signal that moves the brain toward a goal. Schultz's work showed those neurons fire when a cue predicts an unexpected reward and drop below baseline when an expected reward never arrives.
validated
now you can have dopamine from your shitpost
You make it sound like being a crack head's bad.
