You're probably right with communities, not such a big deal today. Good morning, Glen, thanks a lot for checkin this one out.

I used myself metaphorically, of course, why I'd never tune out a station that doesn't interest me..... this was for the kids. Hopefully maybe today there's one less teenager cutting their wrist over the weight applied by a virtual friends index finger upon a mouse button. It's just a button.

Without mentioning any names, a popular weekly shindig here is one of the however many accounts that muted me. I'm confident it was a retaliation mute because my account unfollowed her/him (I'll never tell) back when I had nothing to do with it. But I still show up over there weekly and chime in my tr.... Ooh! I almost let it slip. I still participate over there each week if for nothing else, to verify I am still, in fact, on the mute menu. Haven't received a confirmation notice over there once!

Enjoy the rest of your week, sir, always a pleasure to know what you think. The Mrs. got any interviews lined up for you today or what?

Wait, give yourself more credit, @cmplxty, you're 1k! You were my thousandth. You're special.

Dude I piss people off regularly, I can virtually feel it. If someone is constantly blasting memes or politics (I've never even voted, I'm well aware they give zero fucks about my vote and if voting counted it would be illegal), or just something that I wish they'd switch, eventually I unfollow. I've never intended to hurt anyone's feelings but I understand how it works sometimes.

It's rare, extremely rare, rarer than the rarest Tuna Tartar you've ever sampled in your button pushing existence, but it happens. And that's about the time I realize it's all my fault. Had I not brought my only feeling to the internet with me, it wouldn't have been crushed so easily by the button.

Let's get a few little things outta the way first like it's all my fault and had I not brought my only feeling with me to the internet, I probably wouldn't have noticed they unfollowed and muted me so... Fool me once shame on me. <- That's how that saying goes.

I was just telling Glen I wrote about myself metaphorically, of course, why I'd never unfollow someone because they put up the same exact shit political content every single day or stupid ass memes I feel wasted valuable seconds of my life each time they're in my feed. This paragraph appears to be aggressive when all I intended it to say wais it's for the kids. Hopefully maybe today there's one less teenage suicide over a fucking butting. One more and then we'll get your account straightened out:

Discord, NO ONE TOLD ME that if you don't put a profile pic up your into that kinda thing.

_{I had no fucking clue!}

Now then.. about your votes. Have you ever been to hive.vote and followed curation trails? You ever signed into hive.vote at all? I just checked out your voting history at https://hivetasks.com/@rubido and everything looks good to me, I don't see you randomly voting at small percentages which would likely mean you're following a curation trail.

Sign into that hivetasks page and let me know if you see anything out of the ordinary. Well, answer my hive.vote question first and then do the other thing, there's gonna be a test. We'll get your account figured out.. @dandays - The Luckiest Guy I Know is on standby.

That and random dick pics still not comfortable with Discord, NO ONE TOLD ME that if you don't put a profile pic up your into that kinda thing).

It was my pics, Rick.

Good morning Adamada! If never seen you round these parts and now I'm gonna have to insist you stop by more often. You don't have to answer that. Thanks for checkin this one out!

There's another paragraph here I didn't include. The one where I know better than to bring my only feeling with me to the internet so when it gets crushed, it's my fault. But the kids and the teenagers and the masses of too many people cutting their wrist over a button (6 letters, it's just a word) these days is pitiful. Hopefully maybe today there's one less.

Enjoy the rest of your week and thanks for stopping by. My door's always open.

I swear it has to be the most cheerful, upbeat songs about school shootings...

As much as I shouldn't Lololl. Llooll.. right here I'm surprised you're the only one who mentioned that! Thought for sure a couple people would be like "you know that's about Columbine, right?"

I've been mentioning in these responses how I intentionally left a paragraph out. The one about how I used myself metaphorically and I've never done such a thing and this is for the kids and teenagers and and and anyone else who feels compelled to off their self over a... button. :breathe:

Good morning Jehtro, thanks for checkin this one out!

Dubstep. Just to give you a better understanding, at least you'll have more reason to dislike it if nothing else. Electronica, obviously, a dude named Mickey Finn accidentally doubled the tempo of a "break beat" (like Midnight Star - 'No Parking On The Dance Floor' - "break beat") back in the 80's. He called it "drum n bass" Cuz he's a drummer/DJ and from that evolved Jungle, Downtempo, and a whole shit load of electronic genres.

Then in maybe just the past 10 years, DJ's and artists began cutting that 80's drum n bass beat more than half, like 60-70% of the original tempo but are really emphasizing that 808 drum and all those 90's analogue sounds and, "Tada!!" Dubstep.

did you have to write a book to get it through to us..

'Guilty as charged!' My mother used to yap yap yap yap yap yap yap yap about whatever all the time and she'd always end her conversations with: Ok, I've probably talked your ear off now.

Anyone reading these responses will think I'm repeating myself-repeating myself but I intentionally left one paragraph out. The one how I was just referring to myself metaphorically in the article and I really wrote this to all the kids, teenagers, and everyone else willing to off their self over a button.

_{It's just a button}

Two visits from you on the same morning. Thank you, gonna be a great day! Ok, I've probably talked your ear off now.

You didn't get it?! I sent out Thank You cards to all my special blockchain fam and they didn't arrive either. This is all the mailman's fault, 'I'm innocent of all charges.'

Good morning, Lizelle! It's morning here. 70 degrees it says today, Pura's whippin up a shake as I type this—pre run. Got the bicycle loaded up on the car so I can do some pedaling while she's running. Concord Park.. her pavement runs parallel to Lake Concord and my trails weave in, out, through and around Smoky Mountain forest. What I'm trying to say is:

Thanks for never muting me and understanding I'd never do that to you and I hope you understand I'm not hanging up the phone right now but 70 degrees..... I gotta go!!!!!!

Cheer! :click:

I haven't tried your technique yet but I'm always up for new tricks. And nice use of back-to-back to's too, two of'em, well played.

Good evening @bashadow, I just checked your page to see if it's evening where you are but you're too anonymous so... 'good time of day!'

I'm always hearing about kids these days and how they're depressed, cutting their wrists, everything else over a button. I lost followers for good awhile back, never heard from'em since, and it wasn't even me who initiated all the unfollows. Hopefully something like this article makes unfollows a little more funny and a lot less serious.

Thanks for droppin me a line! Enjoy the rest of your week.

Sometimes I realize someone isn't following me (cough cough @lizelle), so I unfollow them, and poof they follow me again, and then I follow them back 😁 like nothing happened.

Hahaha...thought no one would notice, I could have sworn I'd followed you previously so was mortified to be unfollowed and then I saw why 🥴
The other big sin though is seeing me upvote my own posts!
Love the gif😅

Yooo! Good morning. Your content is absolutely worthy of your own vote my man. It's not you it's me, you've done nothing to deserve this, this is all my fault and everything you're doing is right.... I need to be more like you.

_{How'd that sound, believable?}

:confession: I'm reminded regularly about kids and a whole slew of humans in general but mainly kids who are "depressed" or worse—suicide. And it's all over a fucking button so it leads me to a combination of concerned and embarrassed. We've allowed the younger generations to become so dependent on their phone they not only can't communicate in public but they think virtual/fantasy is real. It's not—not even spelled the same. All the stuff about my voting techniques and whatever else I said was fluff, my main point was 'it's just a button.'

Happy whateverday this is! Thanks for the reblog. What you got goin today? "Erp!" (tires chirped)

My man! Good morning Sweed, I see you must be staying warm upstate, figured that's what you were doing.

I remember you telling me that. I guess I didn't realize the severity of it at the time, zero?? I've never heard that from anyone except you. What a weird glitch. I dig your silver lining in the whole thing.

Everyone's too sensitive over clicks these days, Bob. I can't emphasize too enough. They're burning down houses, cutting wrists, hijacking and kidnapping all Cuz someone unfollowed them or disliked them or however the :click: of a button translates. I see these stories and it's alarming.

Thanks a lot for checkin this one out @thebigsweed, always a pleasure when you stop by. Always a pleasure knowing I got your support. And I remember that unfollow.... shoot, you followed me back so quickly I knew it was just a bug.
