My Perfect Life as a Content Creator Allowed me to Ignore the World’s Problems

Until they came knocking at my door.

I work 16 hours a week.

The world is in chaos.

Race riots.

Gender wars.

Political correction versus insurrections.

None of that concerns me.

I live in a bubble.

My purpose is to live a comfortable, good, and easy life.

Or so I thought.

To minimize problems, I now depend 90% on the internet.

I stay at home.

I don’t bother or hurt anyone.

I mean,

I do help people…

But I avoid physical people.

Digital humans are okay = they’re necessary for my following.

I don’t have to worry about car accidents, violence against me, none of that.

I joked asking myself one day:

“Do I even need God?”

The doorbell rang. I view the security app on my phone to see who it is.

“Delivery.”
