Friction
When a thought is typed, it arrives fully formed.
When a thought is written, it emerges slowly.
This difference is not about preference or efficiency.
It is about contact.
Typing removes resistance.
The medium responds instantly.
Words keep pace with explanation.
Writing introduces friction.
The hand lags behind intention.
Sensation remains present longer.
Nothing about this makes one superior.
But the conditions are different.
What appears is not insight.
It is duration.
Typing favors speed.
Writing favors contact.
Neither reveals truth.
Both shape what can be seen.
DO NOTHING WITH THAT.
