Why do we get bored?

850 views

Nowadays it’s extremely common to have your every biological need met. You’re not hungry, you’re rested, you’ve socialized with some friends, there are no threats to your wellbeing, a caveman would call this paradise. So if we just sit back and do nothing to conserve energy, why do we get bored? Why do we have to do something, and not just vibe?
