Statement:

Light flickers to life upon our black mirrors. A crack, a spark of primordial evolution, a mechanical creation of divine entities indulges our very needs of narcissistic intents, with no escape from being monetized as jesters of the digital high court. Scrolling through our fountain of youth, of meals to be soon defecated, of summers come and gone in idyllic locations, we view and bid our time, festering our lives in comparison, only to have an inbox full of the next great deal to that same idyllic spot we just saw or pandering to the male gaze of unchecked sexual predation of the ever sought after enlargement. As superior beings read these messages from air-conditioned rooms droning on transmitted past cosmic borders, our species desperation in this new normality can be boiled down to—poor soul lost forever in the thicket of government checks, balances and catalogs. As the heavens wage war upon ants and inseminate us with that made-in-the-USA ethernet cable only to have us ahegao our way to signing our privacies and securities away in terms of conditions as we willingly give them the keys to our lives and innermost thoughts while we invite the public to shame us into clear-net codes.

We are the compression of ontological digital artifacts, we are the peeping Tom violating our inboxes and notifications, we are the Slavic block of Nanas taking heed of all things done to hold it against us while we deny everything, we are the Judeo-Christian terms and conditions of our invasion of privacy. We are the very thing we fear.

We, the denizens of 404 errors, dead links and defunct social media platforms, are products of our own hubris, monitored by nation state swinging dicks for the illusion of safety. Don’t we remember the time when the sun kissed our cheeks and the grass burned through our fingertips to be filtered into undisclosed locals of paranoia? Aren’t we tired of our privacy being invaded hourly, being censored and publically shamed by now? Let’s stare deeply into the abyss to discover and embrace our cringe, away from watchful eyes.
