    **Data source:** This data comes from the [American Time Use Survey](https://www.bls.gov/tus/), conducted by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics.

    **Tools used:** initial plotting in OWID-Grapher; finishing in Figma

  2. Interesting to see the „priority“ after 30
    Children, alone, coworker and then partner.
    I guess partner is also included in children, friends and family though…

    I assume this means only in person. If it counted phone calls or things like discord calls, I’d have to imagine the social time would be way higher. So many people I know aged 18-40 talk to friends in group calls frequently.

  4. Thankful my friends are behind the curve on partners and by extension having children, so I the alone part into my late 30s is delayed

  5. Oh, it is fucking fabulous. I’m in my 40’s and spend nearly every waking hour without anybody. It is marvelous and exactly how I want to spend my time. I’m not joking. This experience is wonderful. That is how I am built.

  6. Why are family and children different categories? That’s confusing, I text this while laying in bed with my son/family

  7. Having “partner” start at 15 and be completely separate from friends is interesting.

  8. I want to move into a retirement home when I’m old. It’ll be like back in dorm life. Playing video games with the boys, chasing old women, popping gummies, binging South Park and Scrubs.

    As a hybrid worker, I can tell you that I am alone and lonely most of the time.

  10. How do Americans spend less than 3h per day on average at work?

    I work 40h a week. 46 weeks per year (6 weeks of vacation, not subtracting holidays). If i divide that by 365 days I get to a little over 5h. I doubt Americans have more vacation than I do.
