    I've now almost eliminated my trolling, but there are always a few tasty posts I can never resist having a crack at, dumbassery seems to be a facebook trend. I'm pretty much done though, I can connect with family other ways online now and so I expect my Facebook use to be done by the years end or sooner. It does feel like a loss after all this time to be honest, it's about 14 years I think. But Facebook is just a habit now, it ain't the social media it used to be 10 years ago.

    I found out how to download every single picture and video on my Facebook and save them to google photos.

    I think that's me done with Facebook now. I have no reason to use it anymore.

    I'm down to just 10 family members and Eggs sister, ManCannon and Vlado now I think, not even any of my real life best friends. So like nearly a third my people are still from favslist/unikgamer! Life is just better without lots of people in it, and my best friends have been like this for a shile, I'm the last to catch on. I do actually really still like the idea of Facebook, the sharing of photos and things with the people/family you genuinely have an interest in, I think it's fantastic if used properly. I read that a person only ever has a handful of true friends over their lifetime though and I think it's true through experience, and we maybe need to all go back to this. There are friends and there are people you like/know. Facebook has taught me there is a huge difference, nobody on the planet got 1200 friends. I do like a lot of people, many of you guys here are cool, but I don't care what 99% of the people I know do on a day to day basis. I found not knowing made me happier somehow. If ever some of you guys had good news I'd celebrate with you, or I'd be there if you got bad news. Ya'll know who you are, we've known each other many years now. But just been a little part involved and not all in is working better for me.

    The absolute best bit about Facebook is the memories that pop up every year. This time last year we'd bought Iz an umbrella so she could be like peppa pig and when it rained she grabbed it and went and stood outside just to use it. I love seeing those memories, I'd forgotten about that event. https://scontent-lcy1-1.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t1.6435-9/195718952_10220070727379994_4544398624592214431_n.jpg?_nc_cat=104&ccb=1-7&_nc_sid=730e14&_nc_ohc=_qiRNJsrwd4AX88usr8&_nc_ht=scontent-lcy1-1.xx&oh=00_AT9f-bfdA2MYzrskf7Xfea_pf0Jl6UIHBihKqqF8Lg5eEw&oe=62C0DBE6

      Editing … Make your own Facebook! Just for the people you like and you can make your owm memory slides. I felt really silly for making a Facebook 10 years ago. I had it for a month before I deleted it again and people promised me it was so much fun and all your friends were on there….. Then I realised… This is really stupid. My real friends don’t post to me because I see them irl and I don’t care about all the vague acquaintances and what they did on vacation. It just felt really empty and I could not see the point of it except for snooping on people you have not seen in a while. It’s the perfect platform for stalkers I guess. Speaking about stalking do you know how Vlad and MC are? I tried to talk to Vlad on blag but he does not seem to check it much if at all. I hope he and his family are doing well. MC is probably teaching the drop bears some manners I hope.

I actually upload all my photos to Google photos now and family members have access to certain folders such as Isabella but not others. Maybe Facebook will even die out for me entirely too. It's changed so much, it was fun at first but now it's just drama, arguments, adverts etc etc.

IRL you'd never accept that but online it's somehow fine to most. I wish people would kick the tampon guy out of the net. He's a cunt.

      Editing … But real life has gotten like Facebook! Every tiny little thing has become a massive drama. Everybody these days is so dramatic. I studied military history and all these old men who went through literal hell would never talk about it, their best mate got blown into 7 pieces and they picked his brain up to put in the box. No drama, they obviously felt every emotion for sure, but but just kept it private. I never saw war, I left before Iraq but my brother did, and he's said some stuff, horrible things. Nowadays somebody stubs their toe on the edge of a coffee table then checks in at the local hospital just to get more "likes". Facebook has influenced this, people have found they get more likes if they do more dramatic stuff. My mrs auntie checks into hospitals all the time, and her friends are all like "I hope you okay hun, sending my love" and shit like that. She's just a bit fat and got swollen ankles because of it, they need some injections or something. Meanwhile my best friend of 30 years YOUNGER sister has just had her tits cut off and survived cancer still in her 20s, just a couple of years after her dad died of cancer. And she has 2 young boys. You hear nothing from real people, the honest people with nothing to prove. Fake people who try to impress everybody use Facebook as a tool for their own ego. I just like sharing photos of Iz with me mam because she missed out with my eldest daughter. And sure, young people have egos, me included, back in the 90s I was a bit of a nob. But Facebook amplifies everything, for no reason but for attention. And TV shows like the Kardashians makes everybody think that they're like that too, so they act that way on Facebook. Ther's no wonder everybody wants to go back to the 80s or 90s.

      Editing … For sure people are more dramatic. It’s not good to pretend the things you struggle with are not there either, otherwise your happiness is just a façade but a middle ground would be nice. With war trauma it’s different though I read. If your trauma is too deep, thinking about it and reliving it will traumatize people further apparently. So I fully understand veterans not talking at all. Usually people are dramatic with things that don’t matter to them. They don’t talk about the stuff that truly bothers them because it’s not fun to confront those feelings. They would rather seek attention and approval by feigning struggle. You get free sympathy and you don’t actually have to do anything difficult (and the people cheering you on get free brownie points). I’ve only seen this type of behaviour irl at my uni. So I’m not sure if it’s the age group, the demographic or that everyone is like this now but I think it’s annoying. I have noticed through my life that people with real serious struggles are abandoned most of the time. If the drama is too real people notice and they don’t want anything to do with it. People just want to live in phantasy land. Kind of bothers me with the art students I study with now. At this school they are all so friendly and everyone agrees with each other and most of them pretend to have difficult lives and use that as an excuse for pretty much everything. But no one wants to rock the boat. They are all very tame and by the books. I think it’s important for artists to be a bit provocative. Not in a dramatic sense but artists make work to find real emotions. If you can’t be honest and if you try to please people all the time you can’t make work that speaks to people. You have to get your hands dirty and actually be able to say you don’t agree sometimes. I just realise now how much this pisses me off but you can’t be angry with people who are friendly all the time so it’s weird. I liked the people at my previous school more even though they were way less friendly. They were so weird and had their own peculiar ways and were not afraid to debate you. No fake emotions and mostly good art. Life is what’s missing. Vigour. I don’t know. Something real. It’s like people are afraid to see the world without a filter. People don’t think up their own solutions and they don’t have their own opinions anymore, they have to look everything up online and ask the internet what the correct opinions and solutions are. People would be better off if they would develop their own personality more and have their own opinions then everyone can finally stop being so “nice” and nonconfrontational. Then finally we can have a real life thunder dome. We should build it out of old facebook servers.

    My friends young girl was almost abducted yesterday in the town where he lives. That's terrible. But do you know what's even more terrible? The 86 statuses he's put up in 16 hours fishing for more attention. If he spent as much time looking after his girl as he did on Facebook the incident would never have occurred.
