    I made a new social media account and I'm somewhat overwhelmed by the need to present myself online. Like, how do you even get an avatar picture that says something about you (and isn't just an image from some anime)? And what's the point of a "banner" picture? I'm half-tempted to just reveal aspects of my real life identity, but years of having been online have imprinted on me that you should absolutely never do that. Honestly, I'm wondering if I'm just not creative and personable enough to use social media as something more than a content delivery machine on which I lurk.
