Laptops put the world at your fingertips.
Laptops put you under the world’s thumb.
How does that yoke fit?

Between parents and their helpless infants.
Between little old ladies and their deliciously hypnotic knitting projects.
Between humans and their piteously neglected feline companions.

Hahaha. I don’t see the em dash, but the title tags are showing for me. I enjoy them immensely.
