Thug Boy. Thug Man.

 Is it a newly acquired respect or is it out of interest? Have you suddenly started to respect me or have you any hidden interests behind such words? I have seen this man in the cafe. Years after and on a lone afternoon, this man greets me, smiles and mentions the fact that he hasn't seen me in ages. He smiles and walks away. Years ago, I used to be this innocent boy that used to hang around the big, bad thugs. Out of them, the majority didn't really liked me - they just out up with me because of this girl whom was the reason for me to be in such environments. Today, this guy comes up to me. Like I have previously mentioned, he greets me with a smile, states the fact we haven't seen each other in ages and walks away. And I am no longer this innocent. Neither are my guts. What's behind those words? A newly acquired respect for another man? Any kind of sketchy interest, given the fact that we know each other kind of well? I still don't know. But I am alert.

Following and Unfollowing

I've recently started cleaning my social media following. Again. In the last week's, I've been unfollowing a lot of accounts related with porn, leaving only those accounts that share some clips and some actors, and politics. However, I know myself and I know I'll be chasing some of those people back. From both spectrums. The thing is that anxiety makes me do it. I even follow and unfollow people that I know in a spree.

Later on, I'll start following them again, because... Well, because they've been followed by me before and I liked what I saw. Things are still going down the path where I unfollow them.

The Blessing and the Curse of Technology

Technology is a blessing. And a curse. I am typing this message inside a very full bus. Few seats and not that much space for people doing this long hour trip on their feet. I am deactivating the cell phone's browser and Google Chrome, as I am sticking with Brave and have been for a while. And this process has been kinda painful: Google Chrome is the most used web browser and as most cell phones are part of Android universe, it's more than natural. However, it hands me a little too many ads and trying to read anything is almost certain that I'll end up hitting a surprise pop up ad. My cell phone is a Redmi, which gives me Mi Browser as a default. And although Mi browser blocks some commercials, it still allows pop ups; trying to see something on YouTube still gives me ads, despite the ad block. And although I'd like to use the easiness of Chrome or being faithful to Mi Browser, Brave wins. Wins because you block ads, because it blocks cookies without having websites ask
