Facebook: waiting for the exit

Editorial-style portrait of Cara Delevingne kneeling on a red carpet in a softly lit interior while looking back over her shoulder towards the camera with an intense expression. She has tousled dark hair, several small tattoos visible along her side and arm, black high-heeled shoes with red soles, and black bikini-style bottoms embellished with decorative pins. Her back is uncovered, with partial side exposure visible. Behind her, a doorway displays a collage of photographs, while the minimalist room features pale walls, built-in cupboards, and warm, muted lighting.

My patience with Facebook hath nearly reached its absolute limit. The bloody platform is no longer allowing me to approve posts submitted by certain users in my own group — Broken Dolls and Fallen Angels — and without explanation as to why. Even more absurdly, I myself have been rendered incapable of posting in said group (or in any FB group) since June — despite being its bloody creator and moderator. Again, Facebook hath never once condescended to furnish a reason. Bots are controlling everything, and are making simple existence increasingly difficult for human beings.

As I wrote a few weeks ago, I am at the brink of dissolving the group altogether, and I continue to harbour the hope of leaving Facebook entirely by the middle of 2027. It is a wretched company, yet for the present it is still where the greater part of my audience resides. I pray they seek me out elsewhere. The sooner we each begin extricating ourselves from this putrid s**thole, the better for all concerned.
