Yeah after about a year or two after Facebook started I realized it was just going to harvest my data and I stopped updating my profile except for the occasional profile pic.

The less you put out about yourself on social media, the better. Although in truth, that's only 30% of the ways you get gotten on your identity data.

I never really got the appeal of selfies, I mean I hate having my picture taken no matter who takes it.

Yeah... I've been fairly light sensitive for most of my life, and from young camera flashes basically conditioned me to avoid cameras. Getting a picture taken hurt fairly literally, which does a really good job of teaching someone to want nothing to do with them.

It's less of a concern these days, but decades of habit is decades of habit.

Yeah, for what it's worth I can relate. Although part of that with me is body image issues. Part of me wonders if that's one of the reasons other girls take a million selfies. They're trying to find one they "look good in," but every one we see we interpret as bad. That just seems to be a no matter what situation (like even if we probably look ok). I hated selfies for a lot of reasons.


Side note. There is a yellow jacket nest in my porch rafters about the size of maybe half a thumb. So it is currently very small. They tried that last month and I just squished it/knocked it down with like a wood pole and ran like hell. I'm a wuss. They seem to have come back and yeah. Literal persistent buggers. One of these nights I'm going to likely work up the courage to do it again. Odd thing is the door is positioned just so it's harder to get away than I'd like.

Someone steal this million dollar idea: A drone or other computery remote controlled thing that literally fights bugs while you are safe inside. You can see what it does through a camera from safety and fight off wasps or whatever remotely like a real life robot verses bug video game. The little drone or whatever (or a little standing thingy) can be like spraying them with poison while you're safe and sound away from stingy danger. The wasps can't really hurt the robot but the pesticide the robot/remote control drone thingy sprays on them can. I'm only half kidding and not sure if it would even work. I hate bugs in/near my place though.
