I have this stupid compulsion to unburden myself via the Internet all the time. I don’t think it is very healthy. Then again maybe it is. It makes me feel better, that I know.
I should probably say this shit to people face to face. Then again at least I have a vehicle for my thoughts other than my own head.
Is it a good thing to write vague emotionally charged posts aimed at unnamed people online or is a direct approach infinitely better?
geekynat.com was first created in May 2010 in order to help fill a gap in the whingey, whiney weblog market. There clearly needed to be one more blog which strove to fulfil this quota and geekynat was it.
Authored by yet another self-professed geek - as is chic these days (Just ask the mass media, who have appropriated geekdom for their wicked, wicked ways.), geekynat.com is managed with TLC by someone with too much time on her hands and pasty, pasty skin.
You can let the author know how much you love her by leaving comments and an occasional xo at the end of your messages for that added sense of appreciation. Donations of cash and vegan baked goods will also be accepted. Thanks for stopping by!
If you don’t mind people thinking your crazy and or looking unprofessional (eg: if someone at work such as a superior finds your online rantings) then writing whatever you want is fine.
How about if you just tell the person to read your blog and see if they connect the dots? A semi direct internet approach…
I sort of agree with a in general. Which is to say it’s not a bad to compartmentalize your work life such that no one involved in work has access to stuff like this. But it’s also not a terrible notion to have an anonymous outlet to pour some of those extraneous thoughts into. I personally see a therapist, but that interwebs are much cheaper! Also, I have health insurance that covers most of the therapy cost, so it actually costs me less than my internet access.
What what?! An American with health insurance that isn’t half bad? Shocking! Okay realistically I’m just lucky on that front…
