  • Everyone should be using the Facebook addon “Facebook Purity” if they are still using the platform. I’ve been using it for over a decade and I can’t stand using Facebook without it…

    They are always a few steps ahead of Facebook and work well with other blockers.

    Not only that, you can block specific parts of Facebook, not just the adverts. You can block the shorts, people you know, groups, keywords, and even whole topics.

    You can change settings, like how you see your feed and it will stay changed.

    Changing the font size, type, spacing in addition a bunch of color and night mode options are just icing on the cake.

    In my professional opinion, it’s the only way of working with that platform is not harmful to one’s sanity.



  • I’m pretty severely physically disabled. I have a degenerative bone disease called polyostotic fibrous dysplasia with Mccune-Albright syndrome. My bone marrow is slowly turning into tumors, causing fractures as I walk, move, exist. It also causes my endocrine to go hyper, hypo, or just shut off at random. So I’m pretty sick.

    I didn’t realize all the clinical hours needed for all the certificates and such that I needed to complete the doctorate. My body was just not letting me get the work in.

    I was getting my higher educations at Sexology Institute in Miami semi remotely. Since we knew the dean personally, I asked if I could use my credits and go for another doctorate offered since I had all the core classes and a ton of sexology specific classes. The best one offered with no clinical requirements was a philosophy degree.

    I wasn’t going to use it for work since I’m disabled. So I knew that I’d be able to use it for what I wanted to use it for, and that was teaching others, academia, life coaching, that sort of stuff.

    It’s also super helpful in running businesses as you have a changed perspective in a lot of things.

    I was also able to graduate on time too after putting in some extra hours. Another benefit, I suppose, of being disabled
