I am not my emotions. I experience my emotions but my emotions do not define me. I am fully responsible for how I act upon, and *re*-act towards, the emotions that I feel.

I have opinions on both but I'm going to formulate them cleanly & consisely before posting them to the Public Internet. For now I'm just noting them for my personal notes. (Y'know, in case I forgot n' all.)

I find it fascinating how my laptop loses so much functionality when there's no Internet connection.

Complete strangers can no longer trust each other on the Internet anymore. Not even in a parasocial context.
