#Social Circle

A social circle is a chain of connections woven from self-promotion and the thirst for approval. It forms an endless loop where likes and smiles are constantly consumed to sustain a facade of intimacy. Notifications ping for posts by strangers or coworkers, revealing a community on thin ice. Genuine bonds are absent, replaced instead by embellished profile pictures and well-crafted words holding the ties together. Typically, everyone is forced to march smiling across a narrow ice field toward the next event and photo opportunity in this ritual of social performance.
