# another social media account deletion
it's getting to be a habit hey much like surfing interwebs
while you saw interesting people and projects there
all your attempts at conversation were based on false social assumptions and soon turned sour
without any more actual context other than being online
that is actually meeting real people and not staring at icons on a screen
getting to know them over several months say understanding ir unique existential position
all chat quickly devolved into talking at cross purposes
making bold narrative plays and moves where none were needed
henry swanson's tendency to show off when ey doesn't know jack was a sight to behold
ey quickly annoyed people and wouldn't shut up
see that's just it isn't it being online forces researchers to be assholes
they're forced to falsely feel that if they aren't continually talking about themselves
dominating the conversation and repeatedly pushing ir personal ego-brand forward to the front of the line
then they're somehow missing out that nobody will notice them not sempai not digital arts mommy not fellow researchers
the great liquid interlol nets positively mutates egos into influencers showboaters garish carnival barkers and brand ambassadors for themselves
all of which are pathological unsustainable ugly stupid unnecessary and terminally boring
sure one answer is to state this internet process of shouty egotistic asshole-ization a formal danger
that one doesn't to continually act like a performing salesmen for some nonsense lifestyle brand that is themselves
isn't this called main character syndrome or something where one lives ir entire life online
which means immediately turning into a fictional character that happens to be called one's self
