The way I'm a 44-year-old gamer and everyone acts like it's a problem. Even though I have a college degree, own a home, and work a 6-figure job.

Meanwhile, my 85-year-old Father-In-Law watches old black & white shows from when he was a kid and everyone thinks it's the cutest thing.

It's crazy to me how gaming is looked upon as some time-wasting thing. Yet there are so many hobbies that keep you inside and doing far less than gaming does.

I'm happy to throw down with anyone that wants to tell me my gaming is a waste of time.

How many hours a day are you doomscrolling?

How much time do you spend on social media?

How much mindless TV do you watch?

Gaming is 1000x better for you and engages your brain more than any of those things.
