On disconnected life.

The other week when I got out of a double feature downtown on a weekend and had no more plans for the day, I found myself strolling home since the weather was so pleasant, like an hour-and-half just meandering through downtown and Chinatown and whatnot till I finally got home.

It was such a pleasure just to lollygag and look at things.

It felt nice not to be looking at a screen so much, but actually looking at concrete things, with reality, and having them be solid and not flashing or scrolled down or clicked into something else.

I do like smartphones for news connectivity and Twitter, but otherwise they fuck with your head.
