Greetings good citizen, we are all scandalized when something shared in confidence gets back to the very individual you didn't want to know about it...but it is little 'slips' like this that serve to clear the air... sometimes.
Our individual mental playgrounds are dangerous places indeed. We often think what we would never say, which is why people will stop at nothing to get you to reveal your innermost thoughts because they want in on the laugh.
Most of us refuse to share because what makes you chuckle, er, sinisterly might give you a black eye in the minds of your peers.
So we arrive at 'privacy' and how the 'facts' about us are laying there for anyone to see and most of it is without 'context'.
I have repeatedly warned of the 3 things humans hate [Cameras, mirrors and the truth because nobody likes the truth...it is highly 'unflattering'.]
We all hold higher opinions of ourselves than others would credit us with and some of us think this is 'unfair'. Conversely, most of us needn't dig too hard to find folk who believe we are 'full of ourselves' because most of us are, to varying degrees.
I am an abysmal failure as a human being and an even worse 'friend'...that admitted, I am running just about 'average'.
With no god to hand out 'attaboys' or 'fuck you's' we all slide along the 'medians' of honesty and reliability.
Can't trust anyone further than you could throw them [and most of us struggle to lift infants without injuring ourselves once the blush of youth fades.]
So, what do you need to keep away from 'prying eyes?' Are you afraid someone will find out where you hid the body or stashed the loot?
There are hundreds of embarrassing details that would force most of us to backtrack mightily to clarify any 'misconceptions' folk might have gotten from your version of affairs past...starting with the fact that they weren't there and neither were you as it turns out.
The media's focus on the loss of privacy hinges on the fact that anyone genuinely gives a fuck what you did at ANY point in the past [that isn't directly linked to criminal activity...]
Which is what specifically is behind the concern troll's sudden interest in protecting 'yours'.
More daunting [should any of you spare a moment to consider it] is the fact that history will not remember ANY of us.
I leave behind my 'scribbling' and with one good EMP that goes poof, not that anyone will give a shit!
I honestly endeavor not to tax your ragged attention too sorely so I try to be brief while remaining 'relevant'.
Only rogues and scoundrels require the 'cloak of secrecy', privacy's alter ego.
If you've got nothing to hide...and most of us do but the worst that's going to happen is our ego is going to be bruised for a short while...and if you're a psychopath, you'll be over it the moment it happens!
DId I just say you were a psychopath?
No, I just inferred that you might have some psychopathic tendencies...
Just something else to ponder as the old year wanes, Head.
