it drains our energy and motivation

All this time, I thought the daily grind of employment - consuming 8-12 hours of my day for someone else's profit - was what exhausted my free time, limited my opportunities for socializing, and drained my enthusiasm for local organizing. Turns out it was the fifteen minutes of free time between meetings checking current events that was to blame.
