As my (insert geek equivalent for landsleit, or homey?) Derek Powazek said on my show on Intimacy that people are “intimacy machines” and they will use any tool (phone, computer etc) to be intimate or “get laid.”
The promise of getting laid for real is more powerful than watching others get laid without feelings.

Leg Hair | Close shave |

Live/work lofts | Exurbs |
Co-ops | Self-enclosed community |
Berkeley | Colorado Springs |
