Modern households rarely lack connection. The devices are powered. The apps are running. Notifications arrive on time. But something quieter seems to be failing.
Rooms are full of screens, but not necessarily of people.
Attention is fragmented. Conversation is deferred.
Presence has become ambient at best; performative at worst.
This short reflection captures that dissonance with precision:
👉 The house was full of devices, but no one said goodnight.
No arguments. No data. Just atmosphere.
It explores what disappears when digital connection replaces human noticing and how silence, once accidental, has become structural.
Not a rant. Not a solution.
Just a reminder that being online is not the same as being there.
