fallen verses

and I was struck by this Twitter post.

 Twitter wanted me to update. Twitter cares about me & what is happening in my life. I’m doing nothing, btw, that adds any value to living.

Goldmourn likes the Twitter.  I sometimes remember its existence.  But that <imagine an arrow pointing upwards> seems to me a perfect encapsulation of the increasing dehumanization of social contact brought on by increasing reliance on technological media.  Not that I’m any sort of luddite, I’m just waiting for the virtual shrink to come to fruition.  One step closer and I for one welcome our new virtual overlords.
