More worlds outside your experience exist than you can imagine.

Just because you're bored doesn't imply a larger social trend. Leave your comfort zone.

Great way to put it. There's a whole world of so many different cultures out there. As an American I can kind of agree that American "culture" may feel stagnated, but there's so much more out there.

I feel the opposite. American culture mutates and evolves at such a rapid pace.

So many other countries have rigid social norms and identities. U.S. is like, idgaf, here is everything evolving everywhere all at once.

Partially this also causes/is caused by our massive cultural divisions across the country. For better or for worse, that is just how America is.

Excellent perspective, it’s a wide place with plenty to see, some strange and wonderful. Always more to learn.
