First they came for the immigrants, and I spoke out, because I’ve read the damn poem before and I know how it ends.

I never know what to post here because I haven't decided what my personality is yet.

A tiktok creator was arrested for stealing from Target. She creates "aesthetic lifestyle content" ans would do hauls. I think this is so indicative of how social media creates the need to live outside your means and do anything to keep up.

ICYMI: i dropped a new video last week, you might like it!
New video just dropped! In this episode, we’re taking a look at how we became hooked on vicarious consumption - the act of consuming through others - and how we got kids hooked on it too. youtu.be/xWSZdJCXnF4

Back in September, I had @quillmatiq.com come to my tech community and help us understand the fediverse. I'm moving some things around, and am making this available on my blog: curated-by-mcbride.ghost.io/understandin...
Understanding the Fediverse
Back in September, I hosted Anuj Ahooja in my Tech Savvy Assistant Community. I was new to the concept, and wanted to quickly get my peers up to date. I'm sharing it here, as I think it is very import...

I would be curious to know if everyone else has also come to the conclusion that the US is now fully owned and operated by big tech. My husband and I had a very in-depth yap session last night and just want some more validation.

Amazing that this talk came out in 2016 and it may as well be posted today.

You want me to labor? In 2024? When you let billionaires go to space and I have this little cat that inspires me to lounge? Not today capitalism.

The other day I really wanted to listen to a podcast because it was shitting on Dave Ramsey but I once argued with the podcast host on IG about them only wanting to pay a virtual assistant $20/hr. I didn't even make it through the intro because I couldn't let it go.

Nothing, and I mean, NOTHING, wounds me in my marriage more than when my husband doesn't "get" my joke.

I love that no one in the old guard of my industry knows this place exists.

So anyway y'all want to hear how someone served me with legal action because I said she was racist?

I once was featured in a Huffington Post article about Threads. Another person in it was quoted as saying you can't build a platform off of not being Twitter.

I get a ton of TikToks shilling this on my FYP, so I had to make a video about:
- What is Master Resell Rights?
- Shady income claims
- Why they’re a rip-off for most
- How they take advantage of people’s desperation
- What are platforms’ responsibility in all this?

Personally if I was going to be an evil tech overlord, I would not be so obvious as to throttle a user's experience when they search for a competitor but then again, I am just a girl.
