"Even the technology that promises to unite us, divides us. Each of us is now electronically connected to the globe, and yet we feel utterly alone."
JackalRelated, quoting another author whom I forgot the name of.
This isn't going to win the 5000 contest, but it's worth a shot anyways.
Thank you to everyone who helped me critique this over the week that the final draft was completed! I'm glad that this piece transitioned from conceptualization to actual material so easily for me, as usually I struggle to get stuff from my mind onto the page. Props to everyone who entered the contest, and thank you to everyone who read and enjoyed the piece!
The five followup slots I'd like in the event that I don't win 5kon:
- SCP-5001
- SCP-5002
- SCP-5005
- SCP-5500
- SCP-5200
Thanks for reading, everyone!
