I often walk whilst playing a mobile fighting game, and I am always aware of my surroundings even if it doesn't appear that I'm looking up. On more than one occasion I have seen people - and here, it is almost always runners - purposely running into me. They're often surprised when I turn my shoulder into them in self-defence. On that note - humans currently grind my gears. Sure, there's some lovely ones (present company included, in the main!), but every foray into Facebook brings me Covid-deniers, Trump-fanatics, unhinged far-left zealots, and evangelical vegans. It really does make one lose hope.
