Silence Is Golden

November 8th, 2020

If someone doesn’t understand your silence, they probably won’t understand your words. Someone said that, can’t remember their name. It’s true.

Silence can mean a lot of things. Maybe you’re thinking. Contemplating. Weighing your options. Let’s take it back to thinking. Back in the good ol’ days, when a thought came to your mind it stayed in your head for the most part. You may put action to your thoughts, but for the most part it’s between your ears. Of course you’ll come across the occasional individual with diarrhea of the mouth, but they’re outliers. Everyone contemplates before opening their mouths.

Oh, but no more. These apps are full of people’s thoughts being spewed for others to see. This can be a good thing but let’s be real, it’s not. There are no filters. Broadcasting foul, idiotic, degenerate and sometimes evil thoughts/misinformation are galvanizing a specific portion of society. It brings rise to deviance. Those that were considered “outsiders” for their entire lives can finally be a part of a group. Finally. And it’s so easy to notice.

Congrats! You’re a radical. It’s not a surprise that txrrorxst organization recruiting has skyrocketed since these apps have begun flourishing. I spelled it that way on purpose. You can try to control it, but good luck with that. Once money is involved, all bets are off.

So shut up and be aware of what you’re consuming. Nothing wrong with a little silence.
Fake vs. Real

November 4th, 2020

Remember when you believed that the “real” would always prevail over the “fake”? Good times, right? Well that doesn’t matter anymore. The world is under attack, and it’s been this way for roughly 15ish years. Don’t bother asking someone on social media about this. Nothing will get accomplished, unless you like getting into a pissing contest with professional contrarians.

No matter how harmless something looks, it can be used to stir up drama. Sometimes unintentionally. Drama sells. Ask VH-1. Ask Lifetime. I don’t believe the “creators” of social media meant for their countless hours of brainstorming, planning and workforce building to lead to crippling levels of depression, suicide, feelings of worthlessness and all the other horrible things that have come to be. It’s turned into a zombie. When a zombie bites you, you turn into a zombie. BUT, social media is a bit different that Resident Evil 2. When you back away for a while, you realize you’re infected. You feel those lingering feelings. When you received that dopamine rush via LIKE a few weeks ago, you remember how great you felt. Unfortunately, you also felt the pressure mount. How can I do this again, and then some? Why didn’t I only receive 1 like? What do I have to do for 2?

That person that liked your picture? Yeah, her? She probably doesn’t like you or your picture. What if she only liked your picture so that you MAY return the favor in the future? Do you like sharing needles? What if she liked your picture to piss off her boyfriend? What if she did it by mistake? Oh you don’t mind sharing needles?

“That doesn’t matter! What matters is I got the LIKE!”.

We’ve reached levels of intense delusion on social media. Former leaders of these companies have come out to warn people of the dangers. These programs are programmed to keep you on. Wait, a program is programmed? What are the odds of that?

Unfortunately, big money has taken over. They do not care about the well being of its users. They know it hypnotizes people, but the green. The green is what matters now. Power and money. The dynamic duo. This duo has the ability to help someone from the slums climb their way to success… only to then turn against them and be the ultimate cause of their demise.

It’s ultimately your decision, of course. Do whatever you want to do. Free country, right?
Social Media is a myth.

March 17th, 2020

Have you ever had a loved one deal with addiction? How does it make you feel when you see others try to help, all for it to continue spiraling out of control?

What if you found out one of the worst addictions in 2020 is social media? Would you begin monitoring your use? Or, would you give the generic response of , “Well, there’s a good and bad side to everything“?

Comparison is the thief of happiness. A car doesn’t compare itself to a computer. A house doesn’t compare itself to a pen. A piece of paper doesn’t compare itself to a paper clip. A person should never compare themselves to others. You should compare yourself to… yourself. Evolution. Be the best version of yourself.

A myth, is social media. That one perfect profile picture that just popped up on your page, is one of about 100 bad takes. The filters. The cropping. The Photoshop. The scenery. The vacation. The captions. It’s all a myth. It’s created and molded. It’s easier than ever to deceive people, and social media is a deceiver’s paradise. Gullible folks abound. Chum in the water for the sharks.

There have been instances where someone would bring themselves up to a “respectable social level” after being rock bottom…. only to then commit suicide. Why? In 2020, one big reason is the comparison to others.

Social media brands hire experts to draw you to their platforms. Clicks are what matters. It pays the bills. Social media is so addictive, you don’t realize the damage it’s doing to you until it’s too late. This is planned.

There is as much of a dopamine increase in the brain through social media as there is with alcohol. Alcohol has its limits. You have to be able to afford it. You have to be 21. You can drink yourself to sleep. Social media… has no limits. It will continue to evolve and more addictive measures will be taken.

Take care of yourself.
This is … entertainment?

January 6th, 2020

You think THIS moment is THE moment… until it isn’t the moment anymore. It’s easy to get carried away emotionally, especially when life happens. But, there is no excuse for doing the most in the moment.

Wildcard Weekend is over. Fan bases are livid. Opposing fans are verbally assaulting the victors. The victors have said “To hell with humility” and returned fire with super gangster internet disses. The Patriots are clearly all racists because they’re based in the Boston area and Saints fans clearly drink too much and ride floats to work (if they even have a job).

Now of course, barely any of this happens in real life. The devil wouldn’t allow that to happen consistently. This all happened on social media. What was once a great place has turned into a hellhole. If people aren’t faking, they’re taking. It’s amazing how protected people feel on their little phones, but at the same time… you shouldn’t be surprised.

High school recruits are now subject to ridicule and jokes from “adults”. Could you imagine being 16, minding your business, playing a sport you love, practicing hard to get better… one clip is released showing you struggle and now you have a 53 year old saying things like “LOL. HOW IS HE A 5 STAR?! HE’S A JOKE!”? 53, fat, bald and never touched an athletic field in his life. Social media granted him access to feel like a “somebody”.

College athletes used to be treated like true student athletes. Teams would get criticized, but it would never be directly to a player. This day in age? Yeah right. Want to know why that changed? Social media. It used to be that the winning team’s fan base would celebrate the win. Now you barely get that. It’s jokes about the other team. It’s ridicule. Even in the win, fans will write down every issue they had with the damn win (I feel you Nick Saban).

Where I come from, you have to back up your talk. In person. Not through the phones. Unfortunately, social media has been hijacked. It is full of pompous, fake and ugly people that will do anything to make someone else’s life miserable like theirs. Gone are the days where champions are celebrated. Gone are the days of being humble in victory and gracious in defeat. There is no more humility. There is no more gratitude. Those who show it, get chewed up and spit out.

But, there is hope. The majority of all the terribleness is in your phone. While you could pay a hacker to track down the loser with 3 followers that called you a gay slur because you’re a 49er fan, don’t do it. Trust, I know it would feel great to pull up, but it isn’t worth it. Let the peasants fool the other peasants into thinking they’re royalty. Let them post their gifs of people laughing. Let them post their little emojis. At the end of the day, they are sitting alone and doing whatever it takes to bring someone down to their level. Their internet friends are also sitting in their underwear, alone.

Just point and laugh. That’s always fun.

Peace.
Work In Progress

November 11th, 2019

We’re all working on ourselves. These highlight films we call “social media” are not accurate. This site will be a work in progress. It will not be filled with success stories, dramatically positive endings or beautiful beginnings. Instead, truths. Real life. Learning lessons and lessons learned.

Nowadays, we live in a society that demands perfection, and perfection no longer has a definition. Everyone’s an expert and they have the right to be critical of all. Making a silly mistake in your preteens will be brought to the light when you learn from it internally. Sorry kids, you will not be a great person in the future because you told that tasteless joke. Nobody wants you to win, but everybody wants everybody to win. It will all make sense in the end. Only problem with that is, there is no end.

But it’s all good. With all that being said, you can now be whatever you want to be. The avenues are wide and the sky is high. There are no limits. If you want to be successful, you can do it. But do you want to upset a few people with your truth? The truth? Nothing but the truth? Those will be some of the toughest decisions you have to make in life. You have the heart to withstand the heartache, but will you use it? Will you let your heart turn cold until it’s blacked out? Will it beat bright red? Will you have one once you’re done?

We shall see.
