Welp. I've had it. Time to clean up my feed while I contemplate some "editorials" brewing in my soul. I think I'm going to start with muting all who excoriate Biden without mentioning congress. Anyone who advocates not voting will be gone. And nope, I'm not worried about echo-chambers. I don't rely on social media rants for hard facts or much news. I come here to find smart people with good perspectives, and lemma tell ya... whole lot of the current flow is NOT it.
I'm starting to mute or unfollow all accts that persist in constant barrage of photos of THAT man. Yeah, because news. I get it. Still, we all get to do this our own way. I'm fully aware of the "news." I'll choose how I consume it & it won't be that way. I'm SO through. I'll save my viewing for the day he's carted off to the slammer, if that ever happens. If "AI" is so damned smart, where's the code that'll save me from ever having to look at him again?? #Crabby alert #USPol
For all the vaunted "incredible value" of what some call #AI (what I usually call "DC," derivative compiling) where is the function that would block a certain, obnoxious orange face from ever appearing on my screen again? I am SO sick of seeing that on every headline, half a zillion posts a day, etc., etc. Bad enough to know about it and have to stay aware, but it would be a dream for me never to have to look at it again. Yep, I'm whining.
🧨💥 I have a new unfollow & block protocol. Have noticed some rather popular accounts on here posting reformatted posts (meme or whatever) that was getting substantial traction elsewhere several days before. Unattributed. Unexplained. For me that's a total credibility bust. I don't care how good your other content is. Buh-BYE! #crabby alert
This is one of the truest things I've ever read about writing, allowing for the possibility of about 8 more draft levels ending at: "With luck I never have to see this thing or think about it ever again in this lifetime." To be fair this might need a #crabby alert. 🤨
