Still relevant today, just phones instead of newspapers.
As always, stay tuned here on !comicstrips@lemmy.world for a slow trickle out of Jucika comics, but if you want to find more, here’s a good post with a large collection that /u/JohnnyEnzyme@piefed.social posted last year: https://piefed.social/post/1258520
Go talk to a wall, then talk to the same wall with a framed photo on it.
Guaranteed the frame photo wall will feel better tot talk to.
Want the modern day equivalent? Talk to someone on zoom/teams/etc with their camera off and realize how difficult that convo is.
That’s just a regular phone call?
Either way, you’re still actually communicating with someone in your modern day example so I don’t see how that applies.
Talking to the wall vs a picture? I doubt it would make a difference to me personally, but I know I can be very matter-of-fact in how I look at things so my perspective might be different than most. Still seems like the improvement would be extremely minimal.
Thanks for the explanations nonetheless.
Found the bot.
Found the one who ASS-U-MEs.
