ANTI-REC: FACEBOOK/META creeping
Last semester I looked up one of my profs online out of curiosity. I ended up finding his Facebook profile. It’s completely private it’s just his name, no pics, no info. That is it. That was at the start of term, several months ago. Today I log on to facebook after months and HE IS THE TOP SUGGESTED FRIEND. Blocked him immediately. I need Facebook/instagram/Meta to not pull this kind of thing. Please the thought of my former prof getting suggested my inactive Facebook profile that I’ve had since I was 10 because I clicked on his profile once makes me want to crawl into a hole and die. Anyways, learn from my mistakes. Use a burner account.

Bring back fake social media names & info
literally 15 years ago as a kid I was always told to use fake names on the internet to protect my privacy and identity bc your digital footprint can get big VERY quick. As an adult I had a weird cyberstalking situation happen to me and it had me rly reflective on my digital footprint; thank god it’s over, but believe me when I say we don’t need more randos being able to do a google search, and easily be able to find out what city ur in/who you work for/who your friends are

SATURDAY NIGHT LIVE
Sure it has a few funny bits but it’s well past its prime. I haven’t seen an actually funny sketch in ages. Can we talk about how they’ve been milking that terrible Domingo sketch for months now? Where is the joke? Not to mention that terrible white lotus bit making fun of Aimee Lou Wood’s teeth. Tasteless.
