Internet Personalities (with Edits)

Today I may or may not be thankful for crazy internet personalities.


I think the jury is still out with regard to one person. 

I think this man and I met on a stalking page at Google+ a couple of years ago. 

This guy used to have great ideas for keeping Shannon at bay.  He told me to buy a bar for the front door.  He mentioned switching the locks and had various other ideas to help me. 

This man is fairly young.

He's also a voice over artist, like I am.

For some reason, he's been copying and sharing my statuses on Facebook every day for about three months.

Some of my status updates are incredibly personal.

At first, I didn't mind.

I don't know what to think now. 

I have to say that he is NOT a Facebook friend.

He does not follow me on Facebook, Google, Twitter, or any other social network.

He simply copies and shares my stuff.  I get a little notification every time he shares and likes something.

Lately, he's started to get personal with his comments.  He never leaves them on my page.  He posts them when he shares my stuff.

The last comment was that he hates the kind of person that I am.

Why on earth would someone watch my page, share my stuff, then put me down?

This is getting to be a tad bit weird, isn't it? 
Oh, my goodness!!!

I have an anti-fan!

If Steve's blocking behavior has taught me anything, it is that Facebook, Twitter, and Google+ blocking is a joke when you have as many friends, followers, and circles as I do.

I have 500+ people on Facebook, LinkedIn and Google+.

I have 16,000 followers on Twitter.
I have a few thousand on YouTube.
I try not to keep track.  I guess my point is that I have far too many people who use my stuff to hide from the public.

It wouldn't be anything for someone to pose as a customer and friend me.  I wouldn't notice.

So.....

I don't know. 

There is no such thing as blocking. 

People always find a way to see your stuff.  Sometimes they view you through a friend's page.  Sometimes they make fake profiles and friend you.

Nothing is secret on the web.

*****

I am nearly to the point of hiring someone to do my social media or giving up on it entirely.

I need to focus on other things. 

People are weird.

They just are. 

I guess that Shannon has taught me one thing.  I don't mind Facebook stalking and crazy antics in social media.  I just hate it when people stalk me at work, on dates, and try to break into my house.

Love ya,

S.


Edit:

I did some sleuthing.  It turns out that this guy is actually an actor who has his own IMDB page (or whatever those are called).  He was stalked, so he's trying to help other stalking victims out and keep them from feeling isolated.

Okay....I started to share some of his posts.  Maybe he needs some exposure.

He's got a pretty cool Bronx accent.  I'm going to friend him on the voice actor website just in case I have a need for a male voice with an American flair for my recording projects.

There you go. 

He's not crazy.  He's trying to be helpful. 

Love ya,

S.

Stalker Proxy Phone Calls

What kind of songs do narcissistic stalkers sing?  I imagine they sing songs like this.   I am grateful now that I understand why the stalker has people call  but   wish they'd listen when I ask them not to call again.  I probably should document this somewhere.  My ex was talking to an old friend of mine from high school on a daily basis.  She is his cousin.   I had to quit talking to her when she'd ask me to plan parties and then refuse to give me the guest list saying that the attendees would only be me, her, my stalker Shannon, and my NPD mother-in-law.   She wanted me to plan interventions.   This happened with a baby shower.  It also happened with a wedding.  The in-laws put together a fake wedding trying to host an intervention to shame me and my ex into doing things for them (like quit school and give them my car).   I had to cut this so-called friend off over that in 2004....

Venus Meditations

  Today I am thankful for my new realization.  In my world, Friday is the day of love (reminds of The Cure - lol).  It's true.  Friday is the day of Venus.  Exhausted as I was after work, I went to my altar and lit a candle asking that my friend find whatever his life is lacking. Then I went upstairs and did my Friday night ritual to Aphrodite.  I lit a candle asking that I gain confidence in my ability to love.  I also ask that I recognize true love.  I was too exhausted to linger so I tried to fall asleep.  Have you been too tired to sleep?  It's horrible.  Your mind goes round and round -  you might recall things that happened recently (like the doctor telling me to be careful because I haven't hit menopause yet and I say, "not worried about it" while thinking that it's a good time to be in a sexual drought - hooray for me),  or things going on at work  (that I can hypnotize little cranky babies to sleep without sa...

Welcome to the Club, Zuckerberg (also a warning)

Today I am thankful for realizing that I am not alone.   There is a frustrating feeling that one gets when trying to educate lawmakers about the reality of the world in which we live. I saw this feeling expressed by Mark Zuckerberg during that charade of a Congressional hearing he took part in this week. Zuckerberg looks a mixture of angry and frustrated.  I know that face.  That's the face where I am stifling laughter so hard that it looks like I'm going to cry. That's my political face.  My background is in social science and psychology.  Imagine how irritating it is trying to explain that city policy is based on the concept of a traditional nuclear family (mom, dad, kids - people tied together by blood or legal policy).  As such, there are laws on the books that break up other types of families (more complex family systems of economic cooperation).  Trying to explain that there are  people who share economic resources without bloo...
