I mean, if nowadays you’re still on Facebook, you deserve whatever you get
I don’t like this thought process for all the reasons I listed above. I hate Facebook, but I have friends who either appreciate it or need it for things like work.
But even if you consider all Facebook users to be inferior by nature, this blocking won’t stop on Facebook. If it works, why would it?
Unfortunately it’s literally the only place my local bike shop posts their group ride information.
Is there a way around this? Local events near me only post there. Drives me insane and I refuse to get a Facebook account just so I know where the writers group wants to grab coffee.
if you posses the vast cosmic power of not having crippling social anxiety, you should contact them and beg them to make the information available literally anywhere else as well.
I have. Usually I am a voice of 1 and they ignore it. I have a new member meeting at the Writer’s Society next month and plan to bring it up there.
None that I’ve found so far.
Yeah I guess it’s worth it to support the destruction of democracy worldwide if you don’t want to miss a bike ride
I mean, if you’d rather I stop trying to get cars off the road even if the current solution isn’t perfect, I guess…
Don’t be a shit. Them using FB to stay connected with their local community is far more effective against fascist, anti-humanity efforts than, say, recycling® ever was. 😅

honestly no excuse to be on it. I remember years and years ago when I left FB people kept saying “how will you stay in touch with your parents? family? etc” and i’m like “uh I have this device called a phone. ya see I input 10 numbers into it and it allows me to talk to my parents and family whenever I want. there’s also this new fangled thing called email.”
Plus my Mom is the only person I know that still uses it. My Dad was never into it and I have easier time rolling into the IRC chat rooms he frequents to get in touch than anything else. which usually means logging into a Slackware IRC room or the TechTV room he made hoping other former TechTV viewers will show up. but that’s a story for another time.
