it feels like it brings me closer to people. i get to notice the littler things, about their reactions and mine, when im not so caught up interacting with the symbol of them in my head and barely looking https://t.co/arrAl123Ym
maybe this is because i used to be in my head so much, but i think everyone does it to some extent, and trying not to suppress the form but just let it be and *look* at people is so cool https://t.co/uzWFO5Pfvo
Neurotic nerds are more internally wired. It allows for certain forms of brilliance, creativity—and it also means the biggest torment of nerds is their own heads. Normies might stress more about external situations; for nerds, the stress comes from internal expectation errors.
it’s like watching a tree for the first time, or a river, or a sparrow. you see it, the goddamn person, like you've never seen a human before, instead of just the concept of them https://t.co/T7Dthwb41C
it feels truly electrifying, and sometimes it makes me want to cry or laugh because it’s so intense, but mostly people think it's magical or im funny or just like this or sth and it’s fun, they come alive a bit too nest to this
imo this is an example of using twitter to enhance my experience/heighten it rather than replace it or report it im grateful to the people who carry magical vibes on the tl, because typing feels a bit like being around people like them, it’s normalising
