They call it rawdogging? (I ask, as a Gen Z person)

Also hard relate. I've noticed I've been watching YouTube and scrolling through Reddit to try to numb anxious feelings.

I hope they don’t call it rawdogging because I know it as another thing.

Lol we all know it as the other thing πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

Been awhile since I’ve heard it been used.

Thought maybe I had forgotten.

Reddit only seems to exacerbate my anxieties. Too much bad news coming from the world, condensed into a toxic cesspool of misogyny, racism, and arguing in bad faith.

I prefer YouTube, but avoid the comments.

And yeah apparently some people use "rawdogging" to describe going without their phone/music/whatever when travelling or doing something - which is just.... No.

Rawdogging is a gross term to use colloquially in those situations. But language is language and youth will create slang as they always have done since language became something utilised by humans for communication.
