SAVE YOUR OWN COPIES OF STUFF.

There is a whole series of posts in slack right now about people getting their Instagram and facebook accounts hacked and losing 10+ years of photos. Wedding albums gone, photos of deceased loved ones, etc all unavailable.

The wounds are too fresh for me to chime in there right now but as your friendly neighborhood archivist

SAVE YOUR OWN COPIES OF STUFF.

Hacks happen. Accounts get disabled. We’ve also recently seen big websites like Cartoon Network, MTV News, and Comedy Central get shut down by corporate interests. Social media, the cloud, corporate websites are just someone else’s computer. And you don’t have control over it.

Remember LOCKSS: Lots of Copies Keeps Stuff Safe.

If you want to keep it have personal copies and back them up regularly.

Get one (or a few) external hard drives and set a calendar reminder that x times a year you back up your stuff. Open all emails from cloud hosting companies you might use (no ugly we are selling your stuff to some AI company or shutting down surprises).

had a guy ask me out recently.

VENT POST

hes like 24 and has known me since i was 17.

he literally asked how old i was when we met and when i told him i was 17 he was like "man, dating is hard these days"

i was at a convention that he was at like an hour before he asked me out (it was via text) and when my dad came to pick me up, this guy walked up to the car and introduced himself to my father.

i rejected this guy asap with ZERO hesitation

i reminded him that i am aroace and he KNOWS that

i wish i couldve said "no im taken" but i cant because he would know i wouldn't be talking about a real person. and he already judges me for being attracted to fictional characters, so i cant reveal that im a self shipper.

at the aforementioned convention, i hugged a friend we have in common. and this guy pulled the "aw wheres my hug" shit.

our friends blame his boundary issues on him being neurodivergent, but thats not an excuse for this level of shit. especially when the main person hes being weird to is ALSO neurodivergent.

he continuously pushes boundaries even after hes told to stop.

even after i told him "no, im aroace" he STILL tried pushing and was like "i dont need anything romantic, i just want a partner"

GOD IM SO PISSED

why do men always think that i owe them shit

i dont think im very attractive. definitely not conventionally attractive. but i ALWAYS have men be weird to me.

i hate it so much.

going to a con in 2 (ish) weeks and heres the situation...

• i was friends with a "family friendly" local con owner (who is a 25 year old straight white man)

• that friend and i would talk via discord basically everyday

• that friend sent me some weird stuff (including pictures)

• also is friends with a 32 year old WHITE MAN that says the n word and calls furries the f slur AND he brings him to cons and he helps do promo

• this friend and i have not spoken since the incident (roughly 10 days)

• unfortunately he usually has booths at cons to help promote his, so i will probably be seeing him at this next one

• ALSO when i made a call out post on my instagram story (i didnt mention that it was him specifically, just a local person with some influence), i noticed it had 2 shares so i worry that someone may have sent it to him

anyway im kinda worried about the possibility of seeing him and getting mad at me or just trying to talk to me in general.

like if he doesnt know about it i worry that he will try to talk to me like normal at the con ;-;

Pretending your f/o is doing something with you makes it infinitely easier
