## Content

Sitting in a cafe on the second floor. Observing. He showed her a reel, amid her scroll, out of her context, she's deep in hers, her finger poised, frozen for a moment but eager to continue, she paused, eyes glance glazed at his phone, finger faintly trembling. Her eyes still follow the rhythmic motion, up, down, up, down. The rhythm set by the corp, without waiting for his to finish, her finger unites with the screen again, happy in the familiar dynamic, ready to feed the eyes and let the brain escape again. Saved by their burgers arriving, they began to activate their mouths in silence. Like addicts, they zip their phones, lock them away in their hip bags for later. Saved for another dose.Media diet. We are what we eat.
