For many of us, that post to Twitter, Facebook, represents something of a dissemination of the soul. It is how we tend to define our way of thinking or perhaps even rationalising it in terms of what others think of our own lives. I mean, really, what is the point of putting some pictures on the Facebook? Let’s analyse it for a second….

What are the emotional and mental ambiguities that are being attached to such an operation? When taking the pics, was “how it would look on Facebook” the concern? Was the effect of jealousy on others something to marvel about? Why do we do it, actually? Well fuck me if I knew, I do it too :)

There seems to be some sort of social phenomenon going on that is fixated on the need to share “stuff” be it personal status updates, photo feeds or maybe even home-made porn. Why? Are we in general, a society who cannot find sollace in those that surround us or perhaps more directly, can we not find acceptance from those around us?

Acceptance of the norm seems to be crucial to how to survive in this day and age. Acceptance is such a four letter word to me. Normalisation, to me, seems like such a trivial goal. Fuck you and what you think, honestly! You don’t define the rules or how they should be implemented! You don’t define my happiness and solitude! You are a wanker, just like me and everyone else!

Yet your opinion seems to matter, silly really!
