And character is like a tree and reputation is a shadow of it, and it takes a hell of a lot less to bring it down than to grow it up.

I’ve watched this go down long enough in enough industries to know better than to believe their claim of not logging.

You’re being watched. Hell, your data’s probably being handed over to cops without your knowledge.

Knowing a company is watching me because it’s openly known, is to me better than paying a company to not watch me and likely risk them simply selling out eventually like they all do.

It’s funnier when you stupidly expected them to protect you, PAID them for it, and they don’t.

It’s like 23andme. Too fucking funny and everyone deserves it for their stupidity.

VPNs are wild to me. “Hey! Pay some company to promise not to watch you so you can pretend to be private and not have some company watching you.”

There’s a weird obsession in a lot of americanized Christianity with getting young adults married and then having kids. Because I guess they want to see more little Jesus babies and they think that’s all a young adult woman needs to be doing.

I was pressured hardcore into getting married young and then having kids. Fortunately no kids happened and I got out of it all. But I saw so many older church folk at multiple churches push this on lots of young adults.

There’s this weird “no sex no sex no sex no sex” obsession with sex they impress upon you as a teen, which has kind of a Streisand effect by the way. Then at age 18 it becomes endless “oh you two are so cute, when are you proposing, when is the wedding, when are the kids coming…” kind of shit.

Especially for girls. I knew one woman once who said it was (figuratively) like her parents were weirdly holding her legs closed for so long and obsessed with her “purity,” and then one day it was almost like they were wanting to force her legs open for any Christian man they liked.

Unless you’re a young married Christian couple. Then it’s all they fucking bring up at church.
