      I absolutely hate Instagram advertising.
      Pretty much report every single ad I see as spam.  😠

        Because it mostly is, there is no Place on the Interweb that knows better what I care about, but IG keeps ignoring everything. The recommended Posts Section seems to be more off everytime they change the System/Algorythem, I couldn´t care less about the Fitness Lifestyle or what Sneaker Nike released.

          I hide ALL the ads on ig and fb. Might be a waste of my time to go through the extra clicks, because they're never going to go away, but I do it on principle.

            That & the pissing algorithm that shows me posts from days ago. Why they had to screw around and change it.

                  As I understand it, the Explore section is based on the things people you follow like… They assume if you follow @XYZperson and they like it, you might also.

                    I was supposed to receive today this vest, http://www.indigoferajeans.com/2017/garments/monroe-vest-goat-shearling/ as my birthday gift, but because of the storm Frederike the delivery got delayed to Monday. From tonight until Monday evening I am in the Dolomites and I was hoping to take it with me. Not that this is important, in fact it isn't at all, but I'am sure you all know how it is if you are looking forward to arrive a package. 😉

                      Yeah, that looks quite comfy!

                      At least it gives you a reason to not be sad when you have to go back home from such a beautiful place, lol

                          Facebook has turned into a giant pain in my ass. What started out as a way to stay in the loop with friends I don't talk to very often has turned into work.

                          For the record, I pretty much don't care what beliefs people have, but I get really aggravated when I see uninformed opinions or a repost of something that was supposed to be clever but factually wrong.

                          Now every time I go on Facebook, I have to unfriend a person or two when they post something they haven't fact checked first. Seriously, I know you have a smart phone in your pocket, it's not that hard to fact check…

                            That's exactly why I deleted my Facebook account years ago.  I miss staying in touch with some old friends and acquaintances but the level of frustration and annoyance just wasn't worth it anymore.

                              But now there are alternative facts right? It’s make you’re own reality out there.

                                I think it has always been "make your own reality", there was just a more centralized control of the narrative that guided us to our views. Now everything is so diffuse, but it's all pretty loud. Add the supposed universal access to education and information that is mediocre at best, and actively misleading and/or revisionist at worst, and we've got an undereducated populace that feels like they're smart and informed. It's a perfect shitstorm, of which facebook is the prevailing wind.

                                          Update to my previous rants….

                                          eBay has indeed screwed me out of over £200 for what was a perfectly good phone.

                                          After “negotiations “ at work it seems that I will definitely need to find other gainful employment, or stay where I am but demoted and with any progression path removed.

                                          I think i’ll be taking some strategic sick days soon to update my CV and begin the job hunt  😢
