F--k FaceSpace

Last week, Facebook was chiding me that I posted less. 

This week and eight videos later, Facebook isn't saying anything. 

They're especially not pointing out that my videos received next to no views.

Unalive the algorithm. 

 

Sick and Tired of It

Jesus f--king f--k. Why is The Face That Is the Space blocking my post for James Van Looy's poem column It's All One Thing today and making it less noticeable. I have guesses.

Tempted

Sometimes I'll just want to post on Facebook, "Will you f--kers stop smelling your farts with this 365 poem-a-day blog thing? "

I stop myself, but the temptation grows greater every year.

My Latest Gripe

Them: Substack is evil!

Me: You're telling me this on a F--king Facebook app!

Yep

Facebook is blocking my link to today's American Haiku. Apparently because it shows Elon? Must investigate. 

Can’t Ask This on Facebook

Is FMMFL a saying? I want to make it a saying.

Keeping Thsi Status (mostly) to Myself

My soul feels sick, and it's being felt in my stomach.

Ah

That look you get from someone in the hallway that tells you you have to find their Facebook page and immediately block them. 

Too Dangerous for Facebook?

Below are four illustrations David House created for my Stone's Throw call for submissions (I ended up using the third one.

Oh, AI, You Just Have to Crawl Into my Room and Smell my Clothes

I'm just not ready for AI. No matter how much of my garbage it sifts through.

Status

I’m f***ed.

Status

Currently feeling old and unable to enjoy anything.

Another Plea

Can all the people from my high school who were cooler than me stop embarrassing themselves for five minutes? You're throwing away credibility I never possessed!

Things My Girlfriend Says That Crack Me Up But She Won't Let Me Post Them on Facebook

"Dry clean only?!? Fuck's sake..."

And, Of Course

Facebook intimidated me into deleting my last post off their site. 

Know What I've Noticed?

On Facebook, people give more likes when you announce that you're getting published than they do when you finally share the actual link to the publication.

Goals Already Met

Less than twelve hours in, and I've already re-answered my question, Why has self-appointed Social Media Grammar Police Chief never published anything outside their Facebook safe space?

Not Falling for This Again

Someone from my high school class just tried to friend me on Facebook.

Checked out their profile. 

Another disappointing Gen Xer who's a pro-life Trump supporter.

Deleting the request.Sparing me a lot of friend.

This isn't my first social media rodeo.

 

Annoying Thought of the Day

Flashback photos from Facebook remind me of when I used to be funnier.

It's depressing sometimes.

Moment of Truth

When I announced I had a poem accepted for a publication, I received almost a hundred likes on Facebook.

The publication is coming out later this morning.

If even a tenth of that number end up reading it, I'll be happy.
