"Now that's a name I've not heard in a long time."

- Obi-Wan Kenobi

I'd completely forgotten that word existed, and now that I've read it I'm shocked that it hasn't been used far more often over recent years. Perfect! Thank you.

Inside Out 2 had Ennui as a character, very enjoyable.

So did Zoolander. The name didn't make much sense there though.

I seldom have the energy to want to break new ground, but I sure do want to disappear into the woods a lot.

Tech is like that. We’re aware of the newest developments (which used to be cool and exciting) and now it’s depressing and scary.

Life.

Welcome to Life, the new interactive experience that will grind you down and kill your dream. Now a Microsoft copilot company!

Either "the duality of humankind" or "cognitive dissonance". Or both, I'm not a cop.

Yes. It's called Hunkering Down and Eating Pizza and Watching Movies and Daydreaming About the Rest.

Probably depression.

Is it ok if I want to do all of those things EXCEPT the "profession" thing? And if so, what's the word for THAT?

Space explorer. Your own self-sustaining ship, forest optional, which you use to explore the world forever, very far away from society.
