Welcome to my world, she said...

Everything seems to merge these days.

Towns only have visible boundaries on maps. People network online to the point where they become types not individuals. Books quote one another weaving together into subcontextual web.
Gamers want to get lost in their meticulously created characters. Movies come not even in trilogies but in cycles of sequels, prequels and spin-offs. Nowhere is far away. Nobody is ever alone. Nothing is separate from other things. Even milkshakes lose their flavours and end up as a chocolate-banana-strawbery mush.

I feel blurred at the edges...
