Mental Health Days

I got up this morning at seven a.m.  When I glanced at my computer, I noticed there were several discord messages posted an hour before from g3nn3vi3 complaining loudly about Aubrey.  All I could think of was that if that's what you're thinking about at six a.m., then Aubrey isn't your problem.  Apparently, her health is too poor to play Ark or Rust, but she'll spend all day and night worrying about Aubrey on Secondlife.  

Samango, for his part, apparently spent all night uploading dozens of videos about Nacho, then got up at the same time as g3nn3vi3, ready to do battle with the same.  That's a perfectly normal thing for the father of a small child to do at Christmas.  These are the memories that child will have of their father.

For some people, Secondlife is very bad for their mental health.  Harrison was on Secondlife the night he tried to kill his sister.  That guy from Missfits was on Secondlife the night he did kill his stepson.  Kevin was on SecondLife the night he decided to eat only McDonalds, then eat only air, then drink his own pee the entire time, devising a way to make an AI girlfriend so he would have somebody to talk to when he was on Secondlife.  Stefanos and Michellita spent five years calling the police on each other because of Secondlife.  Misty Putzo once put his fist through his monitor because Nym kept saying his name over and over on Secondlife.  Dreams Emerald pulled a gun on Justin and harasses his mom to this day after her voodoo doll didn't work, all because of Secondlife.

All I can say is that if Secondlife isn't good for you, then remove it from your life.  Don't wait for it to get better.  Don't wait until your enemy is vanquished.  It's not going to get better.  Your enemy is most likely as addicted as you are so they're not going to be vanquished.  Linden Lab spent the last six years trying to eliminate the hub community.  Maybe they're on to something.
