text:  Now, I'm speaking somewhat rhetorically here. I do actually understand why people sit and watch live streams where the star of the show has nothing interesting to say and isn't doing anything worth watching. It's the same thing that drives the screen addiction that most people in this country suffer from, which is loneliness, despair, lack of meaning in life. People turn to the Internet for companionship, having given up on real physical relationships and on physical existence in general.
