There is no line.
I’m officially uncomfortable with anyone who thinks there’s some line in the sand between the internet and real life. We’re not quite at the augmented reality stage where the internet behaves like an information layer on top of the universe, but we’re definitely far past the point where we can pretend that the internet isn’t a prosthetic for informational and social needs.
You should be able to hear anything you type online in your own voice. If you can’t, if the words seem foreign, you’re either shaming yourself, or faking it poorly.
This is real life. Real life no longer has to be in person. Live it that way.
