    Your Animorph knowledge, clearly.

    I have two followers on Tumblr; that's two more than I ever thought I would, so I'm good with it.

    All my Twitter followers are people from here, one person who liked a Youtube video I made once, a friend from high school, and bots.

    I recently got followed on Twitter by a Canadian Archbishop. I guess he must like long periods of only favouriting followed by flurries of pun hashtag games.

    honestly most of my twitter feed lately has been dedicated to baseball talk so it's kind of amazing I'm still where I'm at

    I gained a bunch of random twitter people when Wil Wheaton replied to a tweet of mine.

    They've probably been hugely disappointed in me.

    i've got a few people who seem to stick around for the golden fighting game joke I can come up with once every 6 months

    it might be weird to notice that but I am glad I can give the people what they want

    I have a little over 700 followers on Tumblr which is nice

    I get quite a few reblogs and direct messages, I check it typically once a day and usually have something to interact with

    My Twitter feed is a fucking nightmare of social media shitheads that I have to follow for work. Checking my Twitter feed bums me out so hard that I actually have to schedule it in chunks.

    twitter is the only way I have to keep myself occupied during the night shift

    though around 4am it becomes asian alphabets and australian politics, both of which are incomprehensible to me

    Sup guys. Tell me about your social media experiences.

    Every day a tiny imp presents me with a clipboard full of pages of shit my friends and family are up to, and his name is Social Media. I don't see a problem with doing less work, but I totally get the negative social energy thing. Hilariously, in spite of that, some days it feels like the only reason to get up is to check the envelope. You end up relying on that more and more, depending on what you got going on. It sounds to me like you just can't handle all of the negativity, and I know my solution to the problem (i.e. be as positive as possible in the face of it) doesn't always work.

    One of the more dangerous things about relying on social information is that you start to branch out more to keep a constant stream of activity. It's a bad juggling act to take up, in my experience, but oh I don't got 4 monitors for nothin'! Be strong.

    If my car had a twitter account it would tweet about how it almost got sold and how its owner has neglected it for years now and 'oh god, my veins are full of spoiled gasoline...'

    It's okay it was literally a ten minute project and I've just never bothered turning it off.

    It does so useful stuff like log my mileage for work, too, but the Twitter was a flight of fancy

    Every so often someone at work makes the mistake of posting company related information in their personal social media account. Surprise! You get to have compliance audit your entire posting history and log and archive it forever.

    Oh goddammit. Acquaintance is all fired up on Facebook about NASA's upcoming announcement, saying things like how soon we will be able to effect a consciousness change on a global level, and that it's clear to anyone who's done the research and connected the dots to the real truth. Why, those people who did that research should all get Nobel Peace Prizes!

    Then he lists David Wilcock, Jordan Maxwell, and Zecharia Sitchin as such people.

    I can't. I just can't.
