What would happen if the internet died? The biblical language and illustration style in this story makes the internet outage into an end-times event, although other resources remain available to the author and their children. Internet love connections are no longer a thing (to the chagrin of the turnip farmer), but books, flutes, sticks, and fast food are still part of daily life. But the drama is heavy, as is the realization that everyday activities can no longer be shared or commented on large-scale. The best one can do is an in-person thumbs up.
