To all of you looking for me on Facebook:
Today, without warning or reason, Facebook LOCKED my account.
I attempted to get an unlock code THREE TIMES, with no success. They never sent it.
So, if you're looking for me on Facebook and can't find me, that's why.
God damned enshittified Facebook...
I know what day tomorrow (Thursday, 9/11) is.
And I know how he's going to desecrate and trivialize our solemn memories of that day.
So, I'm gonna stay away from the news, and listen to my own music collection. Anything to insulate me from the upcoming onslaught of bullsh*t.
A Bohemian Rhapsody flash mob? Believe it!
