being a zillennial really just be wondering which is better, being present or connected? what’s worth more, an ugly laugh or a pretty picture? if i spend time with my friends and don’t post a story to prove it, did that mean more or less? by what value? is a sensation worth less than its image? how much of my life should i snap, stream, edit, airbrush, enhance? how much of myself should i show? do i do promos? aim for brand deals? join tik tok? sell nudes? is a private self an antique luxury or just an increasingly outdated construct? what’s the worth of a self not shown?
