Daily Musings — 9th April 2017

There are some rather strange individuals out there.

A female friend has told me that an ex-boyfriend has sent her a video of himself having intercourse with another girl. Before blocking her.

To me that makes no sense at all. What is it meant to achieve? It is also incredibly dangerous because say it leaks? I’m certain my friend wouldn’t do it, but there’s always a risk an electronic file of that nature can leak. Just ask all the celebrities that have been victim of hacks over the last couple of years.

It’s just a really weird thing to do. I presume the aim was to make my friend jealous, but she quite clearly doesn’t really care what he does.

What do you think is the best way to respond to such a thing?

On this day in 1865, General Robert E. Lee surrendered his men at the Appomattox Court House.

Confederate statues across the US are controversial, but what is telling many of them were built in the 1920s. 60 years after the end of the American Civil War. Which begs the question why of why were they built? I cannot imagine the impact of seeing these statues for African-Americans who lived in areas where they were erected.

Lastly, on a more light-hearted note, term is over. The sun is back. I think sometimes people forget to recharge the batteries and lose their MoJo. I’ve certainly done it and so have some around me, but I guess now is a good time for a short break. The Vitamin D from the sunshine really does improve people’s moods. During February and March, there were some sunny days, but this week, it’s been good throughout, which is nice.

Have a nice week folks, ❤.
