I need my mind blown

everything is gray these days
everything is distilled down to appeal the greatest common denominator: acceptable by most, unobtrusive to the least

most of the cars are gray
most of the TV shows are basically the same in the sense that the plot can be summarized in 3 sentences at most
most blockbuster movies are sequels with a few lines of text and 90% graphic violence (have you seen John Wick 4 or Extraction 2?)
most of the food is neutralized in taste, down to an optimized balance of sweet and savory
most of the music is same or similar, old hits are rehashed over and over again

we deserve to be excited, we deserve to be surprised, we deserve to be offended, we deserve to feel all emotions, not just the sterilized gray of the mass acceptable., this is just fricking boring
Boy do I agree. I save myself by reading poetry every day I recommend rumi and Neruda that will bring you alive again. Also some world music and dance. Learn tango whatever get back to your body, emotion and senses.

Heard a saying once that a person should have three Hobby type activities in ones life.
1. To make some extra money...
2. Something that gives you joy...
3. A hobby to keep you mentally stimulated...
If all you are experiencing is grey, to a degree this is a choice, whether an active choice or a passive choice

If color doesn't come to you, seek it out, don't assume it isn't around

I am not having the same experience as you, everything I encounter does not seem grey, so I'm wondering if you just live in a bland area
