    Eh, i kinda miss it. Of course its carefree living, but it also is a symptom of our individual detachment from society at large. We don’t relate to the people around us, we handpick those connections digitally for the most part, where shit is just as shallow as it supposedly was in reality before that.

    Sure, you dont care what you look like in the street. But if you have mainstream social media as well i would bet you have made an effort for your profiles that other people can see. Good looking pics, possibly edited too, relatable posts and personal information.

    We just shifted most of our presentation online.

      This is the only social media I use. Not caring what others think, while maintaining respect for them, is the closest one can get to true peace. I want to get closer to that. Dressing with other people’s perceptions as a focus gets me further from that peace, not closer.
