Welcome to the brainwaves of Diana - freak-on-the-way - Van Loo
Hopefully you enjoy my thoughts and want to walk with me on the freakin' way of life, faith and all that! I am told I'm a freak and the works of my grey cells are way too freaky to be taken serious, so beware :-D

facebook badge...

Isn't it cool: I just added a facebook badge for my profile and it says: "status: none".

Well, there. I'm back on Earth. And I'm not even an 'asylum seeker without a status' (as we have some of, in The Netherlands), I just don't have any status. Or maybe I see it blurred... I have the status 'none'. YEY!

What's 'none'? Something to choose, or something to be given, or something to earn?? Who decides? Who knows...

I know I do have a status at home, and according to my dogs. But maybe facebook doesn't follow the consensus. What status does facebook have? According to me, that is. Or is a status something that is to be formed by the community? Facebook can have the status 'addiction'. Some should go cold turkey with it. Some should go cold turkey with the whole typing thing... or anything with screens...
Facebook connects people. Status 'connector'. And so non-selfish it is! It knows everything from everybody, although it is not sharing all the information. Status 'secret service'.
There's a add that tells you how old you look on your profile picture... who decides?! I'll get me another profile pic, my 2 dogs or so, from behind.

The profile picture isn't 'an profil' at all, by theway. Giving away no profile. Fits to the 'none' status.

I have a brainwave!
"Status: none" is only applicable when not having anybody around. So when you are just you. Where you can FINALLY be yourself. Alone. No status because there is nobody to compare with. No community. Facebook is no community. It's just you. A lone statue on an own pedestal. I know some people who think they are. And I know some people who are sure they should be. And some people who think they are not, but are wrong.


Or isstatussomething you are, not in comparison to others? Then the world of statuses would be easy, and everybody would agree. Because it's a status quo. No status none.
So what's all the fuss with hierarchy then?! No change of status possible, so no change of status allowed.

I'll always stay status none. According to Facebook.

I love me.
Finally...

Make your status "PUBLIC" . Job Done

Did you ever find out what status none is?

My freakin' way said...

No I never found out what status none is. But I didn´t search for it thoroughly though ;)
It was merely something intriguing for me to ponder about...

I think it suits me... my state of being will never be public, it´s always measured, sort of... and in a way I think everyone wants to dose their ´status´ to the world... ;)
