IIFYI - "If It Fits Your Interests"
Consuming low quality content on a topic related to your interests simply because it is related to your interests, regardless of its relatively low quality.
E.g. interested in fitness, health - watch useless videos of youtubing lifter bros talking about nothing - IIFYI

THE MAIN INTEREST IN LIFE AND WORK
Rux Martin: You arc most frequently termed "philosopher" but also
"historian," "structuralist," and "Marxist." The title of your chair
at the College de France is "Professor of the History of Systems
of Thought." What docs this mean?
Foucault: I don't feel that it is necessary to know exactly what I am. The
main interest in life and work is to become someone else that you
were not in the beginning. If you knew when you began a book
what you would say at the end, do you think that you would
have the courage to write it? What is true for writing and for a
love relationship is true also for life. The game is worthwhile
insofar as we don't know what will be the end.
