What I find immensely annoying is some people have started doing this just to post poo poo they would normally post as simple text. As in, its just a status post, but pointlessly superimposed over a stock image.  Like what the hell is even the point of this? Just post it on your wall as text like a normal rear end person.

I detest facebook. But it's the only place my sister posts her health updates, some of which are about my stepmom's fight with cancer. It's the only way I'm still connected to about a hundred people including former co-workers, people I knew in high school, extended family members, etc. I try to only check it maybe once a week at most, and to avoid the idiotic fights people I know get into. The thing it highlights the most is just how much better the discourse is on SA vs. everywhere else. There are still people on facebook hashing out the bernie vs. clinton battle in the most cliched ways possible, complete with poorly communicated ideas, references to things that never happened, inability to recognize sarcasm in text, etc. etc. But it's a little bit like the credit reporting agencies really. Yes, you really can completely avoid credit, all you have to do is never use any card at all, cash your paychecks to cash and never bank, never rent or buy property, never borrow money, never invest in anything, and you're gold! Just like you can avoid facebook, all you have to do is never get invited to anything, insult all of your friends and coworkers by refusing their requests to friend them, never hear about important things you wanted to hear about from your family, and basically exclude yourself completely from modern social life. There is a confluence of these two options and it's becoming a loving hermit. The prospect grows more attractive daily.

That's the beauty of Facebook though. You can easily be a hermit despite all the dumb poo poo. Just avoid the wall.

I'm aggressively pushing for the social hermit option. I genuinely hate how easy it is for people to get ahold of me at all times of the day. The credit one I'm considering as well.

I just replaced the mass air flow sensor in my car. Anytime I do basic repairs or maintenance on my car I feel so god damned manly. Like, I now have the confidence that if I wanted to, I could strip down the engine to its barest essentials and rebuild it in an afternoon.

Yeah I went from fixing a knob in my truck in ~2006, to hanging out in AI and doing an automatic transmission replacement in my truck last year. Let me tell you, it feels super manly and you can save thousands of dollars, but also now I have shoulder impingement, so there are downsides.

I was super conflicted about leaving at first, but as time went on I realized that I was operating on dumb assumptions. Namely, that I valued being connected with a shitload of people I never talked to for reasons of "losing contact" Then I realized that everyone I care about has my number, email, and can easily get a hold of me, and if they wouldn't put in the effort... that kinda says a lot about our relationship. I certainly make it a point to reach out to friends and family and my social life is literally not different at all post  I still get my news in a timely and accurate fashion, the only difference is I'm not subjected to a torrent of bullshit every day. I still get updates on friends and family, but like, through talking to them. I might still become a hermit, but in the meantime family gatherings are far more tolerable when other people know you don't put up with the childish bullshit that's plastered loving everywhere on FB. There's more to talk about, too.

There's plenty of reasons outside of the toxicity to not want to be on FB too tho, like how they collect and share data, aid hostile foreign governments in affecting elections, give audience to crazy people spreading misinformation, milking small businesses for extra cash, lovely business practices... ...their app...

I certainly make it a point to reach out to friends and family and my social life is literally not different at all post Yeah my issue is I'm a lazy rear end in a top hat when it comes to staying in touch with my friends and family. And my family members who I've begged to text or email or call me when for example they are about to have surgery besides just posting it on facebook fail to do so, but I can't cut these people off either, they're just well-meaning but unable to break the facebook habit. And I totally forgive them that because I have similar lovely habits. So my current approach is 5 RING SHRIMP posted:I just uh rarely check my Facebook like a normal person and it works pretty well, mostly. Except for when I find out my sister is having surgery three days after it happened.

Joey Freshwater posted:Anyone played Mafia 3? Any good? I liked the previous Mafias Yeah, it's mixed, because while the story and story missions are fantastic, there's too much filler inbetween . The way it works is there's 9 areas with a major storyline mission and 2 lieutenants. To open up each lieutenant you have to go around the district doing random filler missions (steal cash from this place, destroy their supplies, kill these enforcers, tail this car around, etc..). That said, the story is fantastic, there's a lot of really good characters, and if you have ever wanted to drive around New Orleans blasting Fortunate Son, stopping only to chuck molotovs into white only diners, then buddy, this game is for you. Plus enemies have this in-between step where they're not dead, but they're counted as dead, so they're just rolling around moaning and screaming in agony and buddy, never have you wanted to empty shotguns into kneecaps more to see that happen. The actual story missions are great as you do stuff like dose a party with LSD and burn a Klan leader on a cross.
