The myth of the perfect, clean workspace

Identity is contextual and, if we are to live, breathe, and grow, it has to remain contextual. The Internet of the “authentic self” — a loathsome, aberrant idea if there ever was one — is an exercise in slowly getting strangled by your past selves.

We are what we pretend to be, so we must be careful about what we pretend to be.”
