digital rot

Digital Rot is the feeling of malaise and ennui which results from hours spent in a decadent, ceaseless activity, be it watching TV, listening to music, playing video games, watching porn, scrolling on social media, but is usually a combination of all of these things. This does not *have to* result from screens and digital activity, but it typically does.

While similar to mind rot, digital rot seems to be an exacerbated form, in that digital media is far more accessible, and allows a person to sequester themselves in a dungeon of their own creation for years at a time.
>A few students show up to class, John, Jack, and Jacob.

>John stares at the board aimlessly for the whole class, not writing anything, and blankly staring and glancing around the entire room.

>Jack, whispering to Jacob: "Is John okay?"

>Jacob, whispering to Jack: "He has digital rot. His girlfriend left him, so he stayed up all night doom scrolling, watching porn, and playing video games while messaging me about how sad he was."

>Jacob pokes John in the shoulder

>John has no reaction

>Jacob, whispering: "See?"

>Jack: "wow. He needs to go to church."

>Jacob: "Yeah."
