Phase 2 came early.

In the final 3 hours before my Facebook account of 5 years and 375 followers is deleted I have made up my mind regarding re-activation.


In the first days I withdrew from Facebook.

In a couple weeks, it was a void in my life.

In the past couple weeks, that void filled up.


Facebook Zucks. It zucks up all your private data, extrapolates more data from it through algorhythms, follows you around all over the web logging what you do and throwing it through the algorhythm machine and then turns right around and sells this to the highest bidder.

Its not conspiracy talk, I don't give a flying shite what governmental alphabet soup orgs make of my web presence or any of that - I don't want my inner workings sold off to commercial parties who use that data to manipulate me into impulse buying their shit.

It also was drawing me away from the Shroomery, and quite frankly, the Shroomery is where I belong, among the mushrooms and toadstools with their razor sharp critical thinking and airfloat fluffy flights of psychedelic fancy, not the turmeric & apple cider vinegar meme crowd.

I want to reduce my computer time in the coming year, and spend the hours I do spend online more wisely, and more wisely definitely means a stronger Shroomery presence.


The social media can drown in the facepoop shitstorm of the coming months of cyberwar and social engineering, I pitch my tent here on this great site Ythan made that doesn't bleep bleep at you with every move, throws up random popups or kills you with in-your-face advertizing.

I made the call, I'll be spending the final 3 hours of my facebook renewal option with my buddies in the real world.


Ciao, Facepoop.

Hullo SHROOMERY
