i cannot stress enough how you should consume and interact with more than just popular media and culture. and this isnt me saying "read some classics and watch obscure movies made in the 60s" i mean this as in read nonfiction! read articles about things youve never thought about! watch documentaries and educational shows and read up on the history of weaving or how trade systems worked in the 9th century byzantine empire and look into philosophical questions from cultures you're not a part of!
branch outside of your interests and comfort zone because not only will this widen your worldview, it also improves the way you conceptualize things and will help you think critically about whats happening in ur life and the media u consume normally. also, you might learn some fun things for trivia night :)
