:Why do you spend so much time working on your vr setup?
:But-
:People are always talking about tuning out of life-invading modern tech, but there's a collective action problem
:I'm trying to use less technology.
:Like if I drop off a network I'm literally losing friends if they don't drop out then reconnect elsewhere.
:The only way to make a better society would be for everyone to drop out at once and prefer corporate networks not cultures controlled that by refuse to observe a difference between engagement and community!
:So..
:I'm existing in a virtual world where everyone actually drops out.
:Everyone in real reality has a phone connected to 400 other phones using twelve billion apps that constantly distract. In this universe I'm using one device I control, and I'm not even aware of it most of the time!

:But... but it isn't a genuine experience.
:Today, inside this device, I'm 22 and I'm going fishing with friends. We tell stories around a campfire and then I have a chaste but hinting beach stroll with a girl who laughs at my jokes.
