90s PSAs about internet usage continues to serve me well. When it comes to social media, it behooves me to act as if there's a sociopath with a grudge against me. I don't use my real name. I don't reuse usernames on different sites. I don't give out personal information of any kind. You're bound to say something that someone decides make you worthy of digital crucifixion and will stop at nothing to ruin your life. I've received a handful of death threats but they don't worry me because I refuse to give the internet a way to target my real life.
