Evelyn Day 42
I wish you all a good day. Today is 27 April 2023.
Today is going to be a good day. My two co-trainers and I will wrap up the delivery of our four-day course. We’ve had a good group of international learners this week, very polite, with the occasional joke, but very well engaged.
Tomorrow I will take another run at getting new tires on Ruby. I better check to see if I have another hidden email from Walmart about my appointment – the one they send after the appointment has been confirmed to see if the appointment has been canceled. That one snuck up on me last week. I had made the purchase, and received a confirmation, but later received the cancellation notice. Why send out a confirmation before the product is available? Maybe my perception of what a sequence of events should look like has been tainted by my other experiences.
Social media is going a little nuts. One of the things that I do from time to time is take a look at the photos people use in their avatars. It amazes me sometimes – neo-nazi symbolism, and in one guy’s case, an actual Nazi stormtrooper. His avatar name implies his philosophy, and his posts reinforce that belief. With my browser, I can right-mouse-click a photo and search for it on the web, and this guy is using an actual dead WWII SS officer as his avatar.
Good people don’t put Nazis in the avatar picture.
Another fake account was using the picture of a guy that died several years back, another neo-Nazi wannabe.
These guys aren’t clever. They’re just dangerous.
Time to hunt a few more of ’em down, I guess.
I hope the world is treating you better than you deserve.
Peace y’all.
