    I’m not sure how that’s dystopian.

    Are you supposed to invite people to your home every time you eat a meal?

      Regularly having lunch or dinner with others is really good for your mental and social health.

      At 18-24 it should be a combination of family, partners, and friends.

      When I was that age I was spending at least one night a week with friends which included dinner/snacks. Hell sometimes we’d get high or grab some beers and make breakfast to fuel a day of young adult bullshit. Lunches were often with my college social group between classes. And I’d often have a meal with my mom whike taking her to Dr’s appointments.

      If young adults aren’t spending meals with family, friends, or partners on a regular basis they’re likely incredibly isolated. Hell this implies they arent even sharing meals with coworkers whether it’s lunch or grabbing a bite and a beer after work.
