I saw this on the Apple News feed today.
Kids these days must just staying home and smoking pipes instead of going out. Lol

Bigger question is what’s in the pipe?

Definitely a tobacco pipe, surprising the photo was not deplatformed.

I just read the article, apparently they've never been around teenagers. That describes mine and many of my friends mid teen years from 35 years ago perfectly.

Harriet’s teenage sons were so sociable as small children that she wasn’t prepared for what she calls the “hermit phase”. Around the age of 13 or 14, both boys started holing up in their bedrooms. Although they were avidly gaming and chatting with their friends online, real-world socialising seemed to fade away.

Haha! We are taking a trip this spring and told the wife there is a jazz club we should get out one night and experience - she was surprised - “You saw the pictures? Quite a few people and sitting pretty close together.” She knows me well!

I suspect the commentary on staying at home is because a bunch of kids got used to the COVID thing and haven't experienced real social interactions. Its a sad commentary of the future of our society.

Quite a few people

That would be a big no for me. I like jazz though.

Interesting to see a youth smoking a pipe. Maybe the youth of today can buckle down and bring back our art.

Picture seemed rather posed for to me. I certainly support then staying in 2020 but after that it seems very unproductive.
