Antisocial
It was not my intention to resume blogging regularly. I merely wanted to vent some things that I did not expect anyone to care about, so I decided to post them in a place that I did not expect anyone to read. Yet now, the idea of having more posts in the last week than in the previous six years was too good to pass up.
In the current political climate, scrolling fb just makes me angry, and say things that I regret. I basically exiled myself in disgrace after making some tasteless comments following a mass shooting. Of course, there have been so many more shootings since then, perhaps no one remembers.
I have been active on twitter for the past couple of years, but that has lost a lot of its appeal as well. I challenged myself to post something every day of 2017. I did not quite achieve a 100% success rate on that, but near enough to feel good about it. In 2018, I have not been nearly as dedicated. Partly because that community has issues of its own, but mostly because I wanted to post jokes and amusing observations, but this has been a rough year, and I am not often amused anymore.
So, for this week at least, it’s back to blogging. Going forward, who knows?
