I've started an appendix (I no longer have one personally) to keep track of my Space Cadet journals for Space Blog. It's a work constantly under construction. Mind the mess.

BradJShaw ⚓ Author Icon has an interesting entry on internet security. I responded:

I have an old TV monitor with VHS built in. I don't have TV; don't have cable. Movies's all I use it for. However, my computer has dual cameras... hmm.

Passwords: I need to write them down in one place because I have forgotten some and it's so easy to get locked out of accounts.

bobturn My blankie was a pale blue-green.

"Conspiracies" more than annoy me. Yes, there may be some truth in some of them but the hysteria surrounding most of them blots that out. And I don't approve of their entertainment/horror value.

So... really... I have an old TV/VHS. I haven't watched it in ages. I have over 200 titles (I expanded by buying part of someone's collection). I should watch "Gaslight" or rewatch some of my favorites.

I haven't done the tape-over-my-camera thingy... maybe I should?

As for passwords... took forever for me to get back into one account. Recently succeeded. I do need to write them all down in one place. I tend to keep them in my journal but I've had to change a couple... and that complicates everything. Big time. I get confused between old and new passwords.

Breaking into one's own account is painful and time consuming.

My blankie... Bob is hilarious and has been writing for SCREAMS. Want a surrealistic nightmare? Visit his blog! *Shock2*

Conspiracies: I post my displeasure all the time on facebook. I don't believe Hillary killed anyone. I don't think every politician has bad intentions. I don't think Trump is a two-headed alien, just unsuited to be president. And that's based on what he says and does. *Angry*

I fact-check as much as I can. Some of my friends wear me out by re-posting debunked false news again and again. I try to ignore them.

I'm not a purist, so I do see the negative along with the good and realize that point-of-view matters. It's just that I have an inner moral compass that I check before believing the worse of everyone and a brain that asks questions.

A rambling blog entry... *Smirk*
