To be in touch (1993)
- evincarofautumn 15y agoAn excellent summary of why you should be skeptical of online relationships. We know each other online only as disembodied, atemporal intelligences. I habitually communicate with thousands of people I’ve never met, and will never meet. On my YouTube channel, hundreds of people I don’t know regularly listen to me talk. Hell, even the few people that I “know” are hardly any more real except that I recognise their usernames. It’s all very surreal.
