  1. I like a tiny measure of fellow humans. Things like Twitch or sometimes the news or if I'm in a going out mood a cafe, bookstore, or library… Is #ParallelSocializing specifically a term? Something where people are there, but I’m not directly interacting with them and nothing is required of me by them.
    Actually this idea was touched on in a book I read recently, Nobody is Ever Missing by #CatherineLacey, where the main character says something about needing to be around people in a way where they're there, they're observable, but without really being involved with them.
