I don’t mean to be all “woe is me” but damn it really drives home the loneliness when literally the only texts I ever get are trying to get me to vote for some shit. or like, texts from my cell carrier trying to get me to upgrade my phone

and the only texts I ever send are just “STOP” lmao

The only texts I get are from my ISP warning they’ll soon cut off the Internet if I don’t pay

If it helps any, you’re not suffering alone. The only texts I get are directly from and for whatever job I happen to have, or an appointment I’ve made somewhere. I’ve tried starting and keeping some texting going with a couple of people I grew up with as close friends, it never lasts more than a few days, and then over a year passes in silence. It has happened several times already and I’ve given up on trying any more.

I can relate. I struggle to keep in touch with my friends back home.

They chat about their fun times and I send memes in an attempt to stay relevant

lol I realized right after posting this that “political texts” could also mean theory. bit frankly I’m not reading any theory so I don’t have that problem

Yeah lol I was gonna say I have friends but none of us read enough to get together and read the same theory, our attention spans are too fleeting.
