Wasting time is absolutely glorious. Don't let anyone tell you that you can't or shouldn't.

Or as Kurt Vonnegut put it "I tell you, we are here on Earth to fart around, and don't let anybody tell you any different"

(That being said if Tik Tok is making you sad delete that shit right away. Wasting time is glorious but feeling depressed sucks.)

Time wasted with enjoyment is not time wasted.

Enjoyment is not a binary thing. Some "enjoyment" is very low-level, and instantly forgettable. But it's easy and frequently we're lazy. Getting up and doing something else frequently ends up be more enjoyable.
