HEY GOOGLE, MAKE ALLO YOUR MAIN MESSENGER!

I really love Google. My Pixel phone has been great for a good year and a half and I’m really looking forward to the Pixel 3. Google has a badass hardware line and it’s only getting better as we progress forward.

One thing that has been bothering me for quite some time is Google’s messaging apps. They have Hangouts, Android Messages, and Google Allo. Out of the 3 Google Allo seems very promising but after reading about how Allo fell from the top 500 apps list in their very own Play Store, it made me question what in the hell Google is doing.

Google Allo in my opinion is the better of the apps with its smart AI features and elegant design. Just like Apples messenger you can message people from your computer (even though is browser based) and has all the fun filled emojis, stickers, gifs, and smart reply features. What’s really confusing is that Google has implemented these same features in their Android Messages app which makes no sense at all. Why not just take Android Messages out of the picture and make Allo the main texting app on the Pixel phone?

If Google wants to be a fierce competitor to Apple, they need to make Allo the main app of which users communicate through instead of bombarding us with several different messaging apps. Facebook messenger and Whatsapp pretty much have that area on lock. I just really want to have that cool as experience that I had with iPhone but on my Pixel but Google can’t make their minds up.

I totally need to calm down with these angry/sad post that I have been flooding my blog with these past years. I mean yeah, I’ve been going through some rough times mentally, but I don’t think I need to express my frustration in a way that makes it seem like I’m a cry baby.

I noticed a new feature on facebooks mobile app that allows you to view your profile the way a person who isn’t friends with you would. I totally forgot that my page is set to where people that are not my friends cannot see my facebook status’. What I didn’t remember was that all of my wordpress activity automatically uploads to my facebook and for all the public to see.

As I scrolled down I saw post after post of all the sad BS that I’ve posted over the recent months. I don’t think I’ve made any uplifting post in quite some time. I don’t even think I’ve made a post that asserted that life was going good. Thinking about it though, I have trained myself over the years to enter the blogosphere to rant and rave about whatever in the hell I’m going through. From my early post back in high school to now, I’ve wrote some of the gnarliest poetry to the most depressing heartbroken shit I could think of.

I really wanna blame facebook because the app is a totally legal drug with bad side effects. The side effects include jealousy, hate, love, depression, psychological torture, and a sprinkle of “WE CONTROL YOUR LIFE.”

I’m serious.

facebook has turned me into a monster.

MANY OF US ARE CREATIONS OF FACEBOOK.

MY DEPRESSION STEMS FROM FACEBOOK.

i really wanna delete facebook but how else am i gonna get a chicks number or stay in contact.

Oh, I’ll also be damned if I have to be one of those boyfriends who has to look at a Snap story or like every Instagram picture because really, I’m not on those sites often. I’ve cut back on facebook but I’ve been a member for quite some time. It’s never really going to go away.

I am surprised I didn’t get hooked to twitter because back in the G I used to tweet my ass off. I kept up the tweeting habit until I realized that twitter is listerally based on a social status. If my following count is one sided I’m not gonna fuck with it. The purpose was to interact and share shit, now its like high school but on the internet and I am once again lame.

Damn internet.

Going back to my originally subject, I need to lighten up. I’m really just a laid back guy who doesn’t say much so for me to take action through words in a way I have been doing for years is kind of bothering me. Come to think of it, I had to rebrand myself as a rapper and talk more of what I know instead of trying to copy my favorite rapper Ab – Soul.

(Side note, I wanted to be hella lyrical and deep thinking like Soulo but that’s just a small portion of me.)

Maybe that’s what I need to do with this site. Rebrand myself and write about the shit I think about when I’m stoned or the natural beauty of life. I’m going to think about this.

VERY … VERY . . hard.

I remember when I was much smaller I wanted a computer SOOO bad.

Everyone I knew had one.

On top of that, when people started getting cell phones I was last to get one. On the boot of it, I had to pay for my minutes because I wasn’t on my parents monthly plan.

Now that I have grown a lot older, I have managed to achieve those goals I had as a small child. I have a computer, smartphone, and a tablet that are all synced together. I am practically connected to every way that you could possibly access the internet, which was so precious to me when I was younger. Precious because I didn’t have access to it, knowing that all of my friends were on websites playing games and chopping it up in chat rooms.

Here I am years later with all the technology that I could possibly dream of and all I do is sit on facebook. My post are vulgar, full of errors and out right rants. I share memes, videos, and goofy pictures of my friends. I scroll hours at a time looking at pointless post that don’t mean a hill of beans in my life.

THIS is what I do each and every day, burning countless hours of my life in a virtual world where not one person can sincerely care about you. Status updates saying I’m depressed, countless unchecked notifications becasue it was just a “Like.”

this is what i do

I’m not sure if I like this. I have found myself lately finding joy in reading a book, minus the ebook part. I’ve been trying to find ways that I can be more productive and manage my time in a such a manner, that will allow me to accel forward.

The moral of this story is, my life is consumed in a bunch of likes, shares, and rude comments from characters who think the earth is flat. This is not what I envisioned. I honestly saw myself later on down the road as one of those nerds who spent a lot of time on Secondlife interacting with strangers who just want to dance to EDM music DJ’d by a guy in Guam.

I’m just saying.

Point being, I got what I want but now I don’t use it for what I initially intended it for.

The longer you steer your eyes towards the indefinite, you’ll lose hope and call for what may seem to be an escape goat.

My efforts of sharing my thoughts have been tainted by clueless souls who feel empowered by social media to cause judgement and blame.

Just remember, they ain’t me and I ain’t them.

YMF.

THESE SHAMPOO PRANKS ARE HILARIOUS!

Facebook is my home to funny videos, status’s full of bullshit, and stuff like what I found above. I always tell myself I’m going to get rid of facebook but when I come across a funny video like this I shake the thought aside and keep scrolling down for my luls.

Coffee Around The World

You guys all know me. I LOVE COFFEE. I’ve also become an avid tea drinker so you might as well throw that in the mix too. As usual, I was scrolling through my facebook timeline and found this really cool video by Buzz Feed. I figured I share it on here with the rest of my followers so we can all have cool Coffee Recipes and what not!

Act. 2

Dear …

Now what I quite don’t understand is how you can be so devious, so our right low, and sooo evil to possibly eeeven try to pull something like that off. I mean I look around and creep on some stats and pro’s and ya know what I have come to assume? That something is up that I don’t know about….but in reality, I do.

Moving on to what I want to say, why is it that everytime something is posted by this anonymous person it is removed 5 to 10 minutes later as if it was not there. Like no one saw it, not knowing the man with the golden eye caught it before it was thown away.

There’s nothing you can hide that social media can give to me. I have the power to shut you down and put you on blast to the point that you WILL truly hate me. Consider me as the friend with the ambition to ruin a very distastful relationship that is as bland as a tomato sandwich….

Making my call and to prove a fact that is being horribly hidden yet known to the world like our economic struggle, it seems to me that the cost of love is very cheap and can be easliy bought, then sold for a price of nothing. With that being said my suspicion will only go away unless I am being told the straight truth with you right there before me crying and swearing that it is all a misunderstanding.

P.S. Keep in mind that I will out do and persue something I have being trying for what seems a decade. In the end if I win…then its all mine. If I lose…I will do what you say will be the most devestating thing that I can ever do. No this is not a threat or some way to change you mind, but a message to show how a warm loving heart…can become as cold as ice.

Sincerely

Angry Black Man

So latley a lot has been going through my head that I seemed to have killed away and have thrown away in my virtual memory trash can. All yesterday I was trippen so bad, later on when I got to the crib and did a little snoopin everything dropped and like I said, it just fatally died. It wasnt really nothing, I just made it seem like a big deal in my head and from a few influences around me, I had this little vision going on that kept replaying over and over agin in my head until I couldn’t take it anymore. What did I do you may ask? Nothing of course becasue once it came to that point I pushed it out of sight and thought about what really mattered and why I am in the predicament I am in today.

People call me a lot of stuff but as Mr. Gary always said to the crazy white girl on the bus “I got thick skin, nothing really gets through to me”. I never really care about what the other low down, got no life, broke as a joke, still living with mama idiots got to say because I keep on reasurring my self that I will be better then them and do bigger and better things then work at Rally’s for the rest of my life in the drive thru lane. They do make me mad at times to the point of me thinking about bashing their hallow heads into a brick wall until it breaks. I haven’t gotten to that point yet so don’t push me.

Its times like that when I look around for a certain someone other then my buddies to go talk to and chill with. It sounds a bit better and a lot more normal. I see it as also companionship and trust, that person always being there for you no matter what.

Seeing me though, I may look like your average nerd wearing the small clothes and not talking to no one. Well you got me all fu** up. Even though you can be someone else but don’t show it dosent mean your that person which I want to be, but that problem that is lurking around the corner striking fear into me always comes to end my shot.

I’ve put lots of thought into it, I dug through all my drafts to pull this one out to finish up what I have been thinking. Something is different now becasue I found a new path of where I can meet up with em. Just by having a simple conversation about pop culture led me to the route which I plan on taking and utilizing from now on. Maybe there is still a chance for me….maybe. I got the rest of the year, time to take action I thought. Although it did make me happy to see the smiling face, at least that is what I in visioned but eh, its ok to dream right? I know I’m a confusing person who can talk as deep as Huey Freeman but I’m a person on a search with no map and no help but my self.

Its just me.

Update your status

Its everywhere! No matter what website you sign on to now they have added the feature that everyone loves and uses on facebook and twitter every day! The status update or the micro blog. The things that people do every time they log on to there facebook or get on twitter. It seems to be popping up everywhere! One website that I didn’t ecpect it to be on was IMVU, a graphical instant messaging client created by IMVU Inc. I was stunned to see it there, they call it “pulse”. Now I’m just waiting for youtube to get one. It seems like the new thing that everyone loves to do. I love to do it! Just look at the side of my blog and you will see my status updates. I’m not made at it kind of annoyed on how every site wants to do it. Why can’t they sit down and come up with something that will beat there competitor instead of joining with them. I don’t, I own a very un-successful blog and trippen over the fact of status updates. Comment your opinion.

New Books

Well today I got two new books. Don’t expect me to start telling you about them because I haven’t read them yet. I was at boarders today and they was having a tent sale so there was a bunch of books in brown boxed sitting on tables under a white tent. Something like the ones you see on the 4th of July when you get fire works. So I was look through and found this book called twitterature. I really didn’t read the back but read a few pages and laughed. So I bought it. When I went to the cash register the nice lady reminded me that I could get another for free. They really must have been trying to get rid of those books becasue after I told her that I already looked through for another book and couldn’t find one, she went ahead and searched one up and asked if I wanted it. Its called “Classic Lit Sign On To Facebook”. “Its a free book” Is what she said. So I agreed on getting the book and left the white tent sweating because of the heat. 93 ain’t no joke. So when ever I get around to reading them I’ll tell you people about them.
