I’m nervously watching my Facebook today to see if the stolen data notice pops up. In the meantime, memories like these are why it’s so hard to think about leaving. From a few years back: Adam: Ugh, everything’s terrible. Me: I’m gonna fix it for you. Adam: How? Me: I’m gonna draw a dick onContinue reading “Conversation With Adam”

Let’s All Throw Facebook Into the Ocean
Can we agree that Facebook is the best worst? Leave aside for the moment that it was apparently used by a foreign power to sway the election. I’m almost as concerned about the fact that it makes me into a crazy person who thinks she can persuade people to change their minds.
My Facebook Feed Hates America
So, you might have heard that Sunday was a pretty good news day. The 24-hour news cycle being what it is, I figured we’d probably start seeing backlash sometime tonight. I was maybe a little naive, at least as far as Facebook goes. (And if it doesn’t happen on Facebook, does it really happen atContinue reading “My Facebook Feed Hates America”
Facebook Is Trying to Scare Me to Death
This is an actual ad from my Facebook profile: I think I’d be fine with them owning my pictures* if I didn’t think this dude was looking at them. * They don’t.
A Very Monday Monday

Jen Hubley at 4:32pm November 6For example, “I cannot wait until Obama makes there beContinue reading “The Puppy Tax”
I’m Actually Surprisingly Bad at Scrabble
Facebook has this excellent thing called Scrabulous, which lets you play Scrabble with all your internet friends. Most of my internet friends are writerly, so I spend a lot of my time getting my ass kicked. For example, I am currently losing four games. Scrabble also has a message function, via which I just hadContinue reading “I’m Actually Surprisingly Bad at Scrabble”
The Cabbage Patch Nurse
NB: I did ask my pal if it was OK to post the following. So if you’re a real-life friend of mine, it’s safe to email me with your woes. I won’t just put them RIGHT UP ON THE INTERWEBS. Ahem. As most of you know, I love social networking. At any given time, I’mContinue reading “The Cabbage Patch Nurse”
Wisdom From teh Webernets
Me: I find it really annoying that women don’t put their birth years down on their facebooks. Coworker Dennis: Why? Me: Because it’s dumb, that’s why. Also, I want to know if [redacted] looks good for her age. Coworker Dennis: She’s 27. Me: How do you know?Coworker Dennis: All women are 27. The entire worldContinue reading “Wisdom From teh Webernets”
