I’d like to talk with people

I’d like to talk with people (or even talk, just chill even) side by side, shoulder to shoulder, instead of face to face for a change.

Face to face talking has a reading of facial expressions and a distance. Reading expressions feels more like closeness when it’s the gestures instead of the words.
Think of the barrier language is when thinking of travel.
Now imagine everyone went mute and had to pay close attention to each other’s gestures and signals. Less could be conveyed, less complex stuff, the immediate stuff, like a hand to mouth gesture or pointing, but the barrier to entry is less, almost anyone could understand each other to an extent. The close attention required for interactions seems to imply or involve cooperation.

Touch is very exiguous in contemporary modern westernized world culture. It’s even rare to see close life-long friends with arms across shoulder or hand in hand.
