Spent a good portion of the day today finishing up The Most Hated Man On The Internet.<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

What a douchenozzle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At the same time, so you’ve got pics of your boobies on the Intertubes, okay. You haven’t shown those to me willingly, so I’m going to ignore them. You’re human; you’ve got them. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

That they’re up there has no bearing on how I view you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And no amount of litigation is going to make them go away. Very few things actually ever get deleted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can find pretty much anything. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I’m sure there’s shit I said on Usenet<\/a>, or on mailing lists when I was a teenager that I no longer thing. Whatever.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“I really don’t remember that,” is an acceptable answer if someone asks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That’s true for an asshole missive, or pics of your tits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If it was last week, that might be a different story, but you have to allow people to present themselves for what they are now, not what they were.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Does that make me a bit inconsistent considering how I treat some commercial companies? Yeah. But I do treat individuals differently.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But the main message is that, no, everything doesn’t actually get deleted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I understand this is a problem for those who want to carefully-tailor narratives; we have always been at war with Oceana. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

But I do take extensive notes, hide things in places where they’re not easily-found. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

But very little of it actually goes away.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

Today is Fathers’ Day. I phoned my well-into-his-nineties’ grandfather, and texted my father-in-law.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Going to see my dad’s headstone is something I really don’t have the stamina for, unfortunately.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
