Copy/pasted from a (friend-locked) Facebook post + comments I made, then cross-posted (publicly) to Twitter:
I think it's getting ever closer to "shit or get off the pot" time, as far as me killing all my social media accounts (FB, Twitter, etc.), as I've been somewhat considering doing for a while now, but more and more strongly within the past week or two. If I ever pull the trigger on this, I'd probably only keep my Dreamwidth journal (dead though that site seems to be, even when compared to Livejournal).
As for Twitter and Facebook, though, Trump has pretty much ruined those for me. I don't know if I want to actively delete them, or just let them hang idle, on the off-chance that once Trump is gone (either via prison or death or, most likely, riding out his four^Weight years of pretending to be POTUS), things might go back to some vague semblance of normal.
I'd probably keep other stuff like DeviantArt, Goodreads, and the various fanfiction stuff. But as far as general purpose "social media" goes, I feel like I'm just about done with it, I think.
So yeah, this is basically just a heads up to whom it may concern, in case I just suddenly vanish off the face of social media in the next week or two.
Or maybe I just need to severely curtail my friends/following lists again. I dunno.
As I say, I'd most likely keep this Dreamwidth site, along with DeviantArt and Goodreads and the fanfiction stuff. But as far as I'm concerned, more and more strongly these days, Twitter and Facebook can just about kiss my ass and go to hell. My only real fear is that if I did limit myself to just here on Dreamwidth, I'd just turn that (once again) into a Trump-rant factory as well. Seriously, fuck Donald Trump.
(EDIT)
Since the making of this post, I have indeed killed both my Facebook and Twitter accounts.
And, no, I didn't turn this Dreamwidth blog into just a "Trump-rant factory."
I also rant about the modern video game industry. ¬_¬
