You're scrolling through your phone ... going shopping ... checking your email ... scrolling through your phone again ... and whatever you do you're surrounded by ads, influencers, the probable forthcoming destruction of the world, more ads ...

This neat little Twine perfectly expresses what it feels like to be online - or wanting to be offline but being expected to connect everything to the internet - and the way that awful events somehow become normalised. It was written in under 12 hours, which accounts for its brevity - of course I wanted to know more, and it could be used as a perfect start for a longer work of fiction. But, like a social media post, it does what it needs to do in a read of a few minutes. The world is ending. You could make $$$ working from home! Click here!
