There are many people on the internet who have a voice.
My little voice was being threatened by a peon who NEVER read an entire post I made and I was threatened in a way I could not believe.
It is the post I cross posted below about me not buying any music any more. Reposted with a link
here. I would NEVER outright slander, hurt or harm anyone. However, I was continuously being disrespected on certain parts of the web and with that type of harassment especially as a black woman I felt it was time to go.
I thought long and hard for 8 years before blogging because I had a feeling this would happen.
It did.
I never became involved with social media to become a celebrity or to even have any type of web presence.
It is not worth me trying to explain anything to anyone but the people who know what went down know exactly what happened, and I did get an apology but I refuse to be disrespected on any levels anymore.
What happened was a catalyst of 12 years of issues I have had with the internet. Further, the post was not about any of them. I NEVER NAMED NAMES. Never in life have named names when I am annoyed to that level unless the person outs themselves on my blog for people to know that they despise me or disagree with me.
I knew about the dangers of the internet for YEARS and this is why I never blogged. I see the same ignorance, hate and disrespect everywhere. This is a main reason why I went to law school because I experienced the same hate 12 years ago online. Now, it is WORSE and it is not getting better.
It is not worth my brain cells to continue to write about myself because it was never about me I was writing about, but sharing about how I feel about the world. There is a lot of good but then bad too. That is life.
We all deal with depression
We all got issues
We all have hang ups
Thanks for those who reached out after I deleted my accounts on twitter and myspace.
Sorry to my friends at
MOG where I gave no warning and I just deleted my blog because I was so mad from that idiot who came on my blog and disrespected me there last week. I knew it was time to leave from MOG some time ago so thanks to that individual for giving more reason to say to hell with it.
Blogging is all about being respectful to others (in my humble opinion) and I tend to attract people who are very disrespectful towards me despite all the "niceness" I give online. I know that is life but you have no idea of the insanity I have encountered this past year.
My Last.fm profile/blog will stay and I am debating about this blog too. Blogging has taken up a lot of my life and it is not worth it on some levels. I know people claim you can make money through blogging but I tell you I doubt someone like me could make money from blogging because I know I can be too radical at times. So, it is best that I eventually leave for my own sanity.
I only started blogging on
VOX because of how I wanted to show my support for certain individuals but I see how dangerous it can be to out here alone and without support from a team of people who can help you truly support the people and causes you adore. I signed up purposely for Vox too so that if you want to be mean to me, you have to set up an account and curse me out.
Thank you for lending your eyes and ears to me. It is much appreciated. I am not giving up on VOX because there is a full year for the Presidential elections. So, I am here for support. Music entries will continue for certain artists who know I adore them. It is all in support of them and their causes and not about me trying to meet any of them. I only want the music.
A lot of people misinterpret what I have said about
Prince and assume I am totally in love with him. It is about his music! I appreciate his voice in the music industry. Further, I don't blame his management for taking down his
website either. I respect what he is doing. I wish I could have told him to not even start a blog or a song of a week because you see how music addicts like myself want more. [
I recently ordered another 3121.com perfume set so you see the support and financial $ he has received from me. I respect his art and what he is doing no matter what anyone says. So go ahead and call me crazy too!]
Other people who I shared my support for know I have their back and I still do, but I have to protect me, myself and my sanity.
My own family does not even know how to use a computer or even read my blogs so it is extremely hard for me to explain a lot to them of what I have experienced. They want me off the internet for good unless I am employed in this field.
So this is my long winded vague not specific entry of why I took down
myspace/
mog and
twitter. And, I have no regrets in doing so.
Now, if something happened to my
last.fm journal I would be physically sick! I take more pride there than anywhere.
