Our smartphones have seamlessly become a part of us, functioning almost like an extra limb. We rarely set them aside, relying on them for a myriad of tasks. From texting and emailing to browsing memes, gaming, streaming music, sharing GIFs, navigating with GPS, and accessing all social media platforms, everything is just a tap away. We cherish the instant connection to global happenings.
Most of our loved ones are present on social media, allowing us to engage socially from the comfort of our own homes—there’s no need for a bra, after all! While family may grumble about our phone fixation, we view it as a vital link to the broader world, minus the awkward eye contact. Thankfully, Twitter is filled with others who share our passion for their devices.

Responding to messages can feel like an obligation these days:
And sometimes we wish we could be disconnected just a little bit:
But I will never apologize for my selfies:
Having access to this level of technology is both a blessing and a curse. It’s essential to strike a balance and occasionally look up to appreciate the world around us. However, you’ll have to pry my phone from my cold, dead hands before I give it up willingly.
