Listening to The Pretty Reckless

Fun music. This is from iTunes and I d/l'd this song half a decade ago.

I cannot tell you how much better I feel from this time last night. I had no nicotine at this hour and I was climbing the fucking walls w/ cravings. Now I have a near-full pack of Edgefield non-filters and am feeling v good ;)

I can't believe the nazis won on twitter. anyone who continues to use that site is a nazi in my eyes. People are so fucking sheepish about calling other people out and calling people who are nazis...nazis. I'm pretty blunt and direct, so I call em like I see em, and I see the majority of the fuckers on twitter as scum nazis.

Either that or people who just mindlessly use the network like they do FB, Instagram, etc. and just do it because they feel everyone around them are doing the same thing when really everyone around them is struggling with a way to figure out how to tell the others that they want to leave social media altogether.

Why do people think they are special?

People think that the data collection, the government spying, the “people of interest” profiles built on innocent civilians always apply to the other guy, but not them. If there is anything I learned from #security people on the Internet is that the people who think they are not targets are usually the first to be targeted. Why? Cause they're convinced they are not targets and do not take precaution w/ their online profiles.

On that note: I am probably closing my Google acct soon.

Updated all my Apple I.D. info (FINALLY)

It was a few minutes of my phone constantly going off from PM e-mails + 2FA confirmations, but I got everything updated. All that shit was from like late-2013 but now it is legit :)

I also made some freeshhhh to death coffee and am feeling p good considering I haven't had tobacco in a good deal of time. In fact, I feel very good. And I am giving myself a break from the #EdX lecture tonight because if I hit a snag/get frustrated, I will freak the fuck out when I have no nicotine to console me. LOL!

Now that I have the Apple I.D. shit figured out, I am thinking of other #privacy, #safety, #security measures I can take to protect myself online. I decided that I am only going to d/l #apps from the Mac App Store and not from the “Open Internet” and also, I am being Verrrry careful about WHICH apps I d/l from the App Store, because a lot are bogus as fuck.

So, anyway. Good times

be back in a bit!
