“Ugh you’re addicted to the internet, go outside and live LIFE”

I’m so glad I’m not around anyone who holds this kind of condescending attitude anymore because before I had the internet all I wanted to do was read and draw anyway. That’s all I have ever wanted to do. That’s what makes me happy. And that’s what you can do on the internet, only at 1,000 times the scope. You can share a drawing with a million people. You can download more books and learn more new things than all the libraries you could ever physically access combined.

Some people romanticize things like watching the sun set over beaches or stargazing off a balcony. I get it, that’s cool if it’s your thing, but if you force me to go watch the sun set over a beach I am going to spend every last second just thinking about what fun things I want to draw or write or research at home and share with the world through this heavenly magical technology. I don’t see how that’s wrong. People are different.
