Start raising the bar on what I see/read/listen

Over the past five or seven years, while working a pretty demanding job, I started to feel that the “quality” of what I consume began to decline. Even my music consumption. As a teenager, I used to listen to very rare or experimental music, with tracks that were at least 10 to 20 minutes long.

Now I barely stand any. The same with reading. I used to read actual books. If not books, I get lost in long form articles on different themes: science, philosophy and even religion. Mostly from blogs of actual people that now are impossible to find or re-discover.

Idk... I feel that I need to make a conscious effort and choice to turn around this automated pilot consumption of life.

What are your thoughts? What you started to do to avoid overindulge in modern digital slop (ai and human one)?
