So basically, in a case about him shoving money at someone so they shut up about him. . .he can’t shut the fuck up himself. I would say something clever and funny here, except the sad part is that this is just so normal in current politics that it’s just. . .not hilariously absurd behavior anymore? Not to say that it’s not absurd - it is beyond such, but it is just. . . predictable, I suppose.

I guess this is how I feel about politics lately? Either I get mad at everything or I try to laugh at everything and normally that works because politicians usually aren’t so tragically stupid so very often, but now I just kinda have to chuckle at the particularly eyeroll worthy things like this, and try to ignore everything else or my brain will explode.

Really need to turn my instagram notifications on. Why did I check it for the first time in months and discover that my best friend made a meme account, and that this woman I had a crush on four years ago requested to follow me

I just saw this and I am confused.

Why are army accounts explaining what solo fbs are doing? I don't see why we should involve ourselves (us as in armys) with what solos do.

Secondly, it says Tae's china bar ordered 815k albums at 7pm today to push his numbers up. I am sorry, but a sudden order of 815k albums? No one seems concerned, that's huge amount to drop last minute.

Your link, Anon.

Your second paragraph answers the question you're asking in the first. But I'm sure you already knew that.

"Why are army accounts explaining what solo fbs are doing? I don't see why we should involve ourselves (us as in armys) with what solos do."

For the same reason ARMYs have to explain to other (baby) ARMYs every time solo fanbases show their ass and reveal they have absolutely no ordered thinking whatsoever, and that rather than Tae's deleted sales being 'HYBE sabotage' (which is the default reasoning from akgaes), it's actually the result of a power-tripping fanbase who cared more about bragging rights against other solo stans, than using well-known ARMY buying practices that by design avoid this kind of embarrassment.

Remember what I said a few days ago about the massive bulk sales method that Taehyung's solo fanbase was pushing, about it triggering an audit? Well...

There are some ARMYs who think they can work with solo stans or find a middle ground with them somehow, but those are ARMYs who have no idea what the consequences are. Each time I've talked about deleted sales in Chapter 2, first Hobi's then Jimin's, all I've said till this point is that (1) all the members are affected and that (2) it has nothing to do with HYBE.

I didn't say anything more to explain what could've triggered those deletions because I didn't want to apply a situation I've seen in other groups to BTS, so I left it at that though I suspected basically what we've now got proof of. ARMYs use a network of buyers spread over time. For reference, many of the sales through OT7 channels happened regularly throughout the pre-order period (a month) giving sellers time to confirm stock amounts. This is ARMY best practice that literally avoids any claims of 'mass buying', because ARMYs have absolute numbers in transactions to show it's fairly indicative of real demand. Taehyung's C-bar wanted to flex their buying power and influence, so they thought it would be a perfectly rational choice to place an order of that size, through a small and unknown retailer, all at once...

If the order size (and resulting stocking bottleneck) didn't trigger an audit, it's likely the fact that order was going to only one address would've triggered it instead. Like, anyway you look at it, it was a dumb idea and mistake, but one solo stans often make. Because the success of the idol for them is always a means to an end: bragging against other solo stans who are indeed that myopic and that shallow.

HYBE has nothing to do with Hanteo noting or creating irregularities on their platform. Whenever sales are deleted as has happened for other idols and groups, it's usually due to a miscalculation of stocks and shipments... something that can be triggered by a fanbase mass ordering a ridiculous amount or someone internal simply messing with the numbers.

Today V's fanbase inadvertently showed the former. And ARMYs jumped in to use it as a teachable moment for the 'Tae-biased ARMYs' who were ready to wield pitchforks to bring down 'evil HYBE' for an akgae fanbase fucking up.

Again.

So back in the day (2011) tumblr had a feature that would auto-post yr blog to yr Facebook timeline. I used it.

This was before this URL, when I was trying to make a business work, so I had a fashion/beauty type blog (@extraspecialeverything, which must still exist in some form because I just got a "Happy birthday to yr old defunct blog you forgot the password for" email from tumblr a few weeks ago).

Facebook Memories has been showing these posts to me the past couple months, and let me tell you. Whoooo, sis. 2010 had a LOOK.

So that's been amusing, as I delete those posts from my FB Memories.

[inquisitorpsyduck]

So about to be "political" with something that's "well duh" obvious but also never really "proved" in any way.

So (in the USA, all this will be USA POV) there's a bunch of politicians who want TikTok banned because "IT'S ALL CHINESE EVIL SATANIC ANTI GOD ANTI 'MERICA PROPOGANDA" and...where is that? I've been on TikTok a few months and haven't seen any of that yet. Seen a few right wing OMG CONPIRACY stuff but nothing EVIL COMMIE.

Meanwhile, on Facebook and twitter...

So I few years ago someone broke into my FB account and deleted or otherwise locked it-anyway it's gone and I had to create a new one. I decided to say "the hell with everyone" and really have just a VERY small cross section of people on it and mostly use it for groups (like my work, which is almost impossible to do without being in the FB group for that). Anyway you can say that like 90% of the people on the FB are NOT ultra conservatives. And the ones that you can call "conservative" are aren't really far out there. Yet I'm constantly recommended far right wing videos, groups, articles, etc. "but FB is super liberal"

Then there's twitter. OK my personal twitter has been curated for years and I tend to get what I want BUT I set up social media (including twitter) for the podcast I'm part of (and see our tumblr here at https://heyilike.tumblr.com/ plug plug like and subscribe). That Twitter account only follows a handful of accounts and are not what one would call "conservative" in any way. Yet everyday I get notifications of tweets and recommended follows for EXTREME right wing people.

Anyway. I guess is any "real journalist" wants to test things out. Go ahead. Make some new accounts and watch how everything you're told about TikTok and FB and Twitter is complete bull. (oh wait, it's X now isn't it, I deadnamed it. darn)

You guys know that situation where you're a kid and you have a best friend in your class or camp or neighborhood and you're inseparable. Until one of you move away. And this is our childhood so it's harder to keep in touch and you grow apart. Then you get older and you have Facebook and you think "I wonder what so-and-so is up to these days" and randomly search for them or just stumble on them by accident.

Its now happened to me 3 times.

First was my best friend from like, 3rd or 4th grade? She sent me a fb request a few years ago, we both were so surprised to find each other, talked for maybe two weeks. I think she deleted me like a year later.

Next was my other best friend from 4th grade. She lived in my neighborhood. My last memory of her was telling her grandmother that she saw some car following me as I was walking home and my dad didn't let me walk down the neighborhood for like a month. We are still friends on fb after she added me like 10 years ago but we don't talk.

The third was also the most recent. This was my best friend from like, 2nd grade. I vaguely recognized his name when I saw the friend request. No friends in common but I accepted. He messaged almost immediately and said "I've been looking for you for ages, we were best friends in 2nd grade, we sat beside each other in gym class and I had the biggest crush on you". I asked D because he was a grade above me and he remembered him, said he was a weird kid (but so were both of us, it wasn't an insult haha)

We've messaged back and forth for a while, caught each other up on our lives. I said pretty early on that I was married and happily so. He told me about his kid that he has joint custody of. It was nice to talk to someone that I vaguely remembered, no pressure or anything.

Then last night at like 2am he sent me a bunch of texts asking for nudes and telling me he thinks I'm his soul mate and he loves me (it's been like 3 days since the friend request)

I said "dude...I think you were drunk texting me last night, no worries I didn't take you seriously" to give him an out. He doubled down and said he was sober and meant every word.

I show this to Chaotic Neutral who of course is aware of the whole situation. He jokingly asked if I was going to leave him for my 2nd grade soul mate.

Why are people like this? Why they gotta make things weird?

I think I’m in the partial solution space for a while for IG. I abstained for Lent (not the first time of taking a break) and that was enough to show me how much it had been an unhealthy and obsessive time filler. I haven’t posted in a year and really only sporadically before that. Instead, it’s been a source of education, a stepping-off point, as various things have become important to me. I started following some Catholic accounts who posted thoughtful and/or educational content. I follow some nature accounts, one or two cooking accounts, a couple of Intuitive Eating RDs, and a solid diabetes RD account. And Bri McKoy, Emily P Freeman, and the Lazy Genius!

If I find myself down a rabbit hole, I’ve been able to catch it and stop, but only recently and only because I’ve added in prayer time with the Divine Office app after hearing Fr Mike talk about the Liturgy of the Hours the other day.

If someone is posting too often or making stories that are too long or I lose interest in their content, I either mute them for a bit or unfollow. Like others have said, it sometimes feels like a fake community and makes me realize I need to connect IRL.

I deleted FB probably 2 years ago now but did set up a locked down account (no one can find me) so i could participate in a few groups. I’m a casual user of those too.

I really appreciate this discussion about the wisdom of it all because it makes me consider the place IG has in my life and whether anything should change.

one of my core values is learning. So I think I'll use that as a gentle nudge if I'm on it for very long - am I learning or is there something else I'd rather be doing right now?

Oh this was just what I needed to read Tsh! Thank you for your candor. I deleted both FB and IG last month. I find it staggering how much time and mental space it has freed up. I don't miss the platforms in the least.

Now I am becoming aware of a new habit: checking the news and other sites just to scratch that former itch, and it has been really eye-opening. Definitely a work in progress, but oh I have read some great books this month!

Oh yes, it's interesting how our default human response is to replace one habit with another. ...Which is a clear indicator we HAVE to develop good habits for any of this to work! This is why one helpful thing to do when deleting an addictive app is to always bring a paper book with you.

[yearasxghost]

ok i don’t really post personal stuff on here anymore but i have to get this off my chest. brace yourself, it’s a long one!

Over 10 years ago, there was this guy that I used to hang out with and apparently our friendship looked ambiguous from an outside perspective (from what i‘ve been told - but tbh most girl/boy friendships looks ambiguous to some people so...) Anyway, in 3 years, nothing ever happened. Actually I brought it up once and after that we gradually stopped talking and that was it. He crossed my mind a few times in those 10 years but no big deal...

...until last month when I started a new evening class (I need those credits for my diploma and it’s hell). I went to the first class and things were... alright? (no one, teacher included, wants to be there but ok) then probably 20 minutes in, a girl comes in late and she looks familiar. At first, I thought ‘maybe we went to the same high school?’. I let it go but when I hear her talk, I’m sure i know that voice and mannerism from somewhere. The first class ends, I’m clueless.

It took me 2 weeks and a bit of insomnia to finally give in and go to facebook to look her up and oh surprise we didn’t go to high school together but yeah there is indeed a pic on fb where we’re arm in arm, both tagged. At this moment, the penny has dropped and I felt so stupid. She is, in fact, that guy’s cousin. (I met her on the same day I met him)

At some point in time, she deleted me off of her fb friends. I don’t know why and don’t care much. I just hope she forgot about me bc now I live in fear that she might come up to me and say she remembers me somehow and mention him... 

I’m so used to being invisible and forgettable that I cross my fingers each week hoping it stays that way. I guess in a way, I’m the girl who’s still not over what could’ve been with a guy she knew a decade ago. but I’m not ready to go there and no one’s gonna open that door for me. I’m fine in denial land. Thank you very much.

Family Drama Rant

Need to vent a little about my family, one of my main reasons why I haven’t even had any energy left for tumblr for so long.

Just cut off all contact with one of my 2 nieces, blocked her on fb/insta/phone. It feels so damn nice!!!!!!! The only real regret I have is that I didn't get the chance to say everything I want to say to her. This has been going on for months but my sister thought it was more Important for us to have xmas together As Usual and pretend to be Happy And Nice rather than dealing with real issues first.

Xmas (24th) worked better than expected, I thought I could give my niece another chance. But now it happened that on the dinner on the 26th (which I KNEW I shouldn't have gone to but mom more or less forced me to drive her there even though she & the others live in the same area and i don’t) Mom asked her if she was angry with her because she hadn't said a word to her all evening. The damn snotty kid freaked out over this totally insane accusation (lol wtf she didn't say hello to either me or mom, but damn sure she had said something to mom, she reminded her, when she asked how mom managed the board she was on like 10+ years ago when it was an important topic of conversation for the Perfect Family to discuss home owners boards/associations?!😂 After this all topics of conversation were only directed towards The Perfect Family and she literally sat facing them to exclude me & mom; well except for when she complained that I had sound on my phone when I started playing when I had zero interest in Their Important Topics of Conversation* note that I didn't even hear the sound on my phone myself when The Perfect Family HAS AN ABSOLUTE OVERMAXIMIZED SOUND VOLUME TO OUTDO EACH OTHER)

where was i oh that's right, niece freaked out and accused me & mom of sitting and whispering to each other when I showed her pictures of my horse = my family, in my boredom and our shared silence and lack of community. So according to the niece, this had to mean that I sat there and whispered in my mother's ear as if I were some fucking Wormtongue and talked crap about the Perfect Family and/or the niece in particular?!? 😂😂😂 Ended up with me getting the Perfect Family against me because it was ME who suddenly caused all the problems. 😂😂😂

Holy shit, the little bastard is an adult (25+, there's only a few years between us, as me & my sister have a huge age gap) but apparently she freaked out extra because she's pregnant? And this apparently makes her Even More Special than she otherwise wants to make herself out to be? Do you really drop such huge amounts of IQ and get an overinflated ego just because you got knocked up? (oooh yes i heard she was apparently mad at me for not saying congrats. I thought why say congrats to someone who didn't want to tell me in person via phone call/text/messenger/what the fuck ever that you got married/got pregnant but thinks this should be done through others because she is Too Important to do it herself? Then this is not an important thing to be congratulated for either in my opinion.)

So when me & mom had left, she had apparently talked a lot of crap about me, unsurprisingly. Just wondering how a person can change so radically in less than a year, from being a nice person you can spend time with to a gross ego tripped cunt you just want to punch.

So now the only thing that really weighs me down remains. What should I do with all the photos?

there aren’t many of us from adulthood but everything from her/our childhood, especially with my pets? Should I erase her face on digital photos and tape over on old real ones? 😅 shouldn't have to delete/cut photos of my animals just because she's in them. Other photos of her & her hideous fuck-off of a dad? total deletion? hide away in a folder somewhere on an old external hard drive? take out from the photo album and burn and/or hide away in a box somewhere? 🤔

The other niece has found out now through mom what really happened and my sister gave me a hug before I left, but don't know how the contact will be with them from now on. The niece I like would have been a real shame if I lost because of her idiotic self-absorbed sister, but you think she should be grown up enough to understand that she doesn't have to choose but can hang out with us separately? But who knows with all the crap that the self-centered niece seems to spew out about me because it is never HER who is the root of many problems because she is PERFECT! 😂😂

(*Important topics of conversation including money, salaries, buying a house, temporary housing for refugees right next door which lowers the value of the house, healthcare allowance (i.e. from a Perfect Family who hates people who relies on social security allowences or whatever it’s called in english but except for this one particular allowance then, because then they save a few thousands to spend more on golf, lol), who is Right about what so the others are Wrong (stopped listening) etc etc. ie things that are very important to bring up at family dinner with me & mom than one they can take by themselves, they all live in the same big area, the nieces are neighbours and it takes five minutes by car to the parents. like yikes. but it's ME who's the problem because I don't want to participate in their Important Discussions? Me who kept quiet rather than to say what I actually thought of them and their opinions to not cause trouble, damn 😂) 

so, uh, yeah. Photos. What should be done?

[intentionallysingle]

My nearly 2.5 year monogamous relationship ended 2.5 months ago when one of my bffs caught him on Bumble. I've gone through ALL of the emotions, but long term I now recognize he wasn't my "person" (if that even exists) and don't want him back - but frankly expected him to try to come back by now. That hasn't happened. Yesterday was Christmas; last year, I spent Christmas at his house helping to make it magical for his family since I'd celebrated with my kids the day before. This year, I've had pangs of missing the relationship - not HIM as much as just the comfort of being with someone who I thought loved me unconditionally. Anyway, I was trying to stay in touch with his adult daughters, and trying to maintain some contact with his sister that I love and his brothers fiancee. I messaged sister and future SIL to wish them a Merry Christmas. They were perfectly kind, but something felt...off. So this morning, I went on his FB page. He rarely posts, so I wasn't expecting to see anything exciting. But as I scrolled down? He had erased all the posts from this year. Untagged himself from our 2 year anniversary. Took down the post about what an amazing gf I am from our first vacation together - which was also his first adult/no kids vacation since he had kids AND his first time on an airplane in 25 years. Truthfully, I normally delete that stuff when relationships end. But I left them up, because they were really happy moments when they occurred, and frankly, whenever he insta-relationships with someone, I wanted them to see that on social we were still madly in love just a few months ago. I have no doubt he did this because he's met someone. Which also would explain the awkward responses from his family, because he can't be alone so new gf likely was at Christmas or even Thanksgiving. His sister, who normally posts quite frequently, has NO posts for December - so I wouldn't doubt she's put up a privacy filter to keep me from seeing family photos. Which is probably out of kindness to not hurt me, knowing her. But fuck him. I knew he'd move on ASAP when my friends saw him back on Bumble hours after we broke up. And I knew at some point it would be likely that he'd take the posts down and/or untag himself. But I feel gutted. Like he's trying to erase our relationship. Like he doesn't care about all the amazing things I did with him and for him. I will never understand how I never seem to be enough for anyone. There is nothing, aside from my disability, that I bring to a relationship that is challenging. I loved him with my whole heart. I made him a better man. I supported him in ways he didn't know existed. I never once even considered stepping out on him. And he VERY internationally hurt me, instead of just having the difficult break up conversation and THEN going on a dating app. I just seriously can't believe I've been erased. And I can't believe social media is so triggering right now. 😔

[witchesandwishes]

A few months ago, I was in a pretty bad headspace and sort of came to the realization that my semi-addiction to social media was partly to blame. To put it plainly, the constant influx of negativity, 'gotcha' groups and fake people just really, really wore me down, and what was worse was that I couldn't seem to stop watching the train wreck.

After discussing it with my partner, I decided to pull completely away from all forms of social media and go cold turkey. I deleted (not deactivated) my FB account, IG and Twitter and logged out of tumblr while also deleting the app from my phone. To be fair, tumblr wasn't a huge issue since I don't follow that many people and try to stick to RP or aesthetic blogs, but some things still work through the filters.

Fast forward a few months and I'm feeling much better about myself. I'm transitioning to a new job that has more traditional hours that will allow me to have more of a social life and my desire to lay in bed at night scrolling through FB or IG is basically gone now. This is a big reason why I decided to return to tumblr last week, and while my attention to this platform may be a bit sporadic, I'm going to try and be at least a bit more active here.

There are a handful of long-forgotten asks in my inbox that I do intend to get through, if for no other reason than to flesh out a few different ideas for my girls.

I'm most often active on Amice Rose lately, so if you see me out and about, please don't hesitate to say hello!

TL;DR: Social media sucks, but I'm back on tumblr.

[sargasmicgoddess]

Awhile ago I had deleted Facebook off of my phone because it was just too much negative noise. Too many people arguing about petty stuff....too many people trying to talk (type?) over each other...too many people trying to impose their views onto others...too many people trying to shame others into agreeing with them 🙄

Sadly, I needed to add it back today for work related stuff the next few months. 😬

It was so nice (while it lasted) to be FB free 🤣 counting down to deleting it again in June....

In my free time, I will continue to hide out naked on tumblr so I can get away from all of the judgey noise and replace the negative vibes with hoe shenanigans 🤣

Hello, peoples.

 I started this side blog in 2015 or so because I saw Adam in Banished, thought he was an incredible, charismatic actor who was going places. There was NO info out there on him & 0 fan blogs here or anywhere. His popularity has grown immensely since then and I’m extremely glad about that. 

I followed his sister on Instagram at first just to see if she’d post pics of Adam. However, I stayed with her account because she is also talented, gorgeous & charismatic. Her singing is absolutely lovely. She messaged me early on regarding photos taken from her mom’s Facebook, she didn’t like it. I get it, completely. 

 I apologized & thought I had removed all personal photos from this blog but I could’ve missed some & you can’t vanish things from the internet as we all know. Once they’re there, they’re stuck. 

I got the above message from Kate today & frankly, fuck this. Did I go to his mom’s Fb & get photos in 2015? Yep. Did I post cropped versions of those photos here? Yes. When she objected I attempted to take them down. There are other accounts on Insta & elsewhere who have to problem posting everything they find & that’s their business, not mine.  I feel like I’ve been entirely respectful to Kate Nagaitis and mindful of their family’s privacy and encouraged others to do so as well. Like I said to her, I’ve literally not been to his mom’s Fb page in YEARS and she randomly followed me a week or so ago so I followed back. I’ve been out of the loop for a few months because of cancer plus I’m not the Adam police so if stuff’s going on I’ve missed it. I won’t be spoken to like that by anyone. 

I’ve said all that to say I’m deleting this blog and the Blazing Adam YouTube account. I’ve got too much shit going on to deal with this hassle.  If there’s anything you want, video or image wise, get it before it goes away. I’ve had a great time with you guys & I wish Adam all the best. I’m still watching & supporting everything he does.
