Working in bad conditions so you can talk down to people that you perceive as lesser humans than you is the #1 interest for a lot of the country.

I’m not limiting this to work.

And of course you can have a relationship with someone remotely.

I don’t use Facebook so I don’t know -

Imagine when some popular show decides to make seasons 1-3 on one platform and then 4,5 on a different one and then 6 on another different one.

The psychological ramifications of that are immense. It would destroy people. It would be no different than any other drug.

You’re acting like he is a normal human being bothered by the same things a normal human being is.
