It is always bad to be hauled into the Ok Corral by a loser. ...especially when we're winning. But these fractured individuals are also spun as if in a centrifuge: they are asked to tune in to distant new sources, and new 'negative' (as you are hard wired for peril over pleasure) click bait that tends to pull them apart. Their response is a type of paranoia. The selfie has become the remedy. In the adverse action of this centrifuge pulling the individual toward click bait, and distant negative world events of some rogue missile that might ultimately have their name on it, individuals back their world with the selfie and retreat into the safe space of the selfie. The selfie has become the suture.We can construct a life in time. But it isn't. It wasn't. As we go up the ladder perhaps more enemies come out of the woodwork. Did we see them coming in a selfie? did we see coming it in our selfies?
