#lonlness

i'm not that fond of the narration of this video, but BOY, does it touch on quite a few of the things that I last wrote about---that is, social media and self presentation. However, this video places more emphasis on connection and the idea of loneliness than I did or have even thought about at this point. "I share therefore I am.."  Shimi Cohen shows exactly what’s wrong with our social structure now, and how we manipulate how we want to be presented to peers, family members, and potential mates on social media, rather than having vulnerable and genuine conversations in real time.
