#notprivate

According to statistics, Instagram has over five hundred million active users daily. Every single one of these users data is being stored in Instagrams database. Instagram has access to your whole camera roll, which is the biggest invasion of privacy. We can think about this sometimes, but in reality, we do not see it bad because everyone has an Instagram. Peter Singer stated, “with some social standards the more people you do something, the less risky it becomes for each individual.” I believe that these big companies should not be storing your data, only for our personal privacy. 

I got some questions for you all: Besides the person feeding the baby, what is different in these two pictures? Why is one "hype" and the other not? Why should one be "private" and the other not? Why is anyone shamed for either? Ah, there's one you didn't expect! Yes, I've seen mothers who choose or who can only bottle feed be shamed. Why? Why are we shaming anyone?! Feed your child the way you want, share it with the world, if you want. Keep it to yourself if that's your choice too. Want to know what I see when you share a picture of your child, eating or not? I see a precious moment you wanted to save. I see a precious moment that you wanted to share. These two pictures are precious moments I chose to share. Don't like it? Don't want to see it? Don't look! #feedallthebabies #nothype #notprivate #preciousmoments

sitting in my bed. my mind wanders. not the first. but agonizing over something i have no control over, can only be deteriorating for me. you are so exhausting. in this life and the next. I lay you to rest, once again.
