I think humans naturally adapt - and that includes you. What did you do before Twitter, for example? And hell, you're here, instead of the DT on Reddit. It's similar, but there's still change involved.
What I think is important is recognising that maybe the "change" takes a little longer to adopt, or adapt to when you're older (and I say this as a late 30s individual who's starting to notice things like this). But that's okay, as long as we do evolve and change in some capacity. Otherwise we'd still be stuck in caves smashing rocks together to make fire.
Funnily enough 1 million years on from the first Homo erectus making fire.. I can't do shit without a lighter or matches.
