Is there no more privacy left in the world?

Seeing flock cameras everywhere and having apps that are able to track your every move whilst you are consistently being tracked online for your political beliefs and what you're interested in and then there are door cameras that can detect your face and cross reference it with all the previously mentioned, I feel as if I cannot hide myself anymore.

This is especially concerning due to the number of data breaches that keep happening, and no company is held accountable for said breaches. Like, I will wake up and see Malwarebytes give me a notification about a data breach, and nothing will even happen to get any justice.

There's also the concern of people search services where ordinary people (not megacorporations) can use OSINT software to track you using usernames, then easily recover your information using said information you may have leaked online that can lead to doxxing.

Also, with the way the political climate is right now and seeing people get prosecuted for the things they say online, it feels like free speech is just dead.

Like I want to live a private life away from these corporations, but I don't want to boot up TOR browser every day with a VPN, then every website I visit blocks me because of my private browsing practices (also not mentioning that these private browsers are EXTREMELY SLOW, making the web surfing experience horrendous).

Dolls were haunted as a kid

Short story but my sister when she was around 10 years old still had dolls and one day when she was in the garage playing with them on a bucket the hair randomly fell out and the eyes started opening and closing rapidly.

This doll had no batteries to be inserted so it couldn’t have been electrical malfunction.

I remember vividly that she immediately began bawling and my mom who was doing laundry ran over and saw it all. She described it as if it started randomly moving on its own and ushered her inside crying. I was smaller but i remember hearing the entire thing on the couch probably while i was playing minecraft and went into the garage and I saw it for myself.

She immediately threw them in some old laundry bin with other random items and kept it there for a few days.

A couple days later I was curious and noticed my mom was in the garage still doing laundry and i saw that the laundry bin in the corner of the garage was still there. I looked into it and the doll was facing up but right as I stared at it the eyes immediately opened and I told my mom. Surprisingly I didn’t cry and was just shook.

Not really that interesting but it’s the only experience in my life that prevents me from becoming an atheist.

Rest in Peace FPS boost packs

I had an FPS boost pack on whilst in practice range queuing for ranked and THIS HAPPENED.

This is tragic. I only use the main marvel rivals pack from nexusmods for fps boosting but damn. I had to uninstall the whole thing and reinstall it just to remove all the mods I added to the game.

(I didn't cheat I didn't remove the fog from the map either btw. I just wanted more fps)

BTW does anyone know if this will affect how skins are displayed?

Currently I'm trying to scrub a username of mine from the internet. I have no idea how to though. I'm removing my information from whitepages and personally identifiable information. I'm creating dummy accounts to discourage doxxers. I'm tracking down my own deleted pullpush reddit accounts and I'm trying to scrub as much as I can but I know there are archives that exist somewhere.

How can I doxproof myself??? please do not suggest for me to change my password. Change my email or whatever as I already have. I just want to scrub a specific username from the internet. If someone finds out about this username through previous username history on one of the websites I am active on I am totally done for.

I just got rubber bands and it’s been day 5. Currently these bands dont hurt anymore however I play with them ALOT.

I keep trying to mess around with them with my tongue, putting my tongue in between the band and messing around with it.

I try to take my mind off of it but i genuinely cannot. These bands are too distracting…

I'm trying to start being productive, I want to start reading historical books and keep up with my assignments. Unfortunately, I've started to procrastinate again. Every time I try to become productive, especially with my schoolwork, I immediately lose my attention span and just put it off and play a video game or scroll mindlessly. I also want to start staying consistent with the gym again, but I just CAN'T, I literally cannot stay consistent for the life of me.

I need help being productive again. I don't know what to do. Do I take supplements? What is there to do? How can I immediately activate 100% of my brain and just start writing, reading, and working out like a monk effortlessly?
