I was lucky enough to visit both Connecticut and Missouri this summer. I usually do every other, but my whole family was going to be in Connecticut so my two kids and I went just for the weekend. I got to see my younger sisters that live in Spain for the first time in two years.
This summer has flown by and I am making a point to enjoy the rest of the season as much as possible. This is the first year in the last couple that I haven’t been looking forward to the next thing. I avert my gaze every time I’m in a store that already has Halloween stuff out. Let’s just be where we are, shall we?

…so I tried to make it count. I went to a lot of concerts and read a lot of poetry and watched a lot of movies and enjoyed many walks through the nearby fen. Here is a fat ass frog from one of my “bog walks”

This has become the norm and every day I grow more disturbed. I understand if somebody is behaving in a harmful way, that is good to document and put out there. But as a whole, it seems, we have become so comfortable with recording people just living their lives. I saw a video of a guy working and the caption of the video was that he was so hot, we needed to find him!!! Why are you providing the Internet with his face and location instead of just going up to talk to him? I saw another of two people on the subway, seemingly a couple, having a very emotional moment. How would you feel if you open up an app and saw a video like that of yourself? I don’t like this level of sibling society surveillance. Why are you videoing an elderly person with sad music dubbed over it to gain likes? It is WEIRD. Don’t even get me started on videos of children. It is WEIRD to use a stranger without their consent to get some kind of fake validation. Get a life.
I don’t mean to come on here and share something so negative, I just don’t have anywhere else to put it and it’s gnawing at me.
