“Our nervous system is simultaneously being challenged by incompatible demands demanding both avoidance of contact with the SARSCov2 virus and the fulfillment of our biological imperative of connecting with others to feel calm and safe”

The genius of Big Tech’s business model
is its simplicity:
Get people to pay for
what they had previously
accessed for free
 
And while the origins of Covid-19
will remain forever shrouded in mystery
it doesn’t take a conspiracy theorist to conclude
that Big Tech knows a business opportunity
when they see one
 
Pray tell the price
of connecting with others
to feel calm and safe?
Becoming disembodied
in order to
save your soul
