Consider Making Your Public Facebook Groups Private Now
As of early November 2021, Facebook changed its Public group rules in ways that will make them easier to spam, fill with otherwise inappropriate posts and information, become more vulnerable to trolls, and add more burden for Group Administrators in these and other ways. For these reasons, with technical explanations of how, you may want to consider making your Public Facebook Group, or petition your group Administrator, to make the group a Private Group now.

This is a writing contest entry I had submitted that did not place. Instead of tweaking and/or submitting to other contests, I have decided not to do this to motivate myself to write more and other content for future contests. I’m not trying to make a living on this, or even earn extra cash, so there’s no need to judge value based on how much time I put into it. If anything, it’s only about minimizing losses of contest entry fees to what’s been “proven” to be “unworthy” of recognition. :)
I hope you like it. 2000 word limit 2021 CBC Nonfiction contest.
Tomlov G1200 7″ LCD Digital Microscope First Impressions
I haven’t written in a while, prose or poetry, because I’ve been preoccupied with a few other things. One is time sensitive, which is learning about investing, so the market won’t make a correction before I am ready to jump in. The other is not, which is taking my interest in artistic photography of the microscopic to another level to get some prints in the future. For that, I have gotten myself a portable digital microscope capable of producing 12 megapixel images, with this Tomlov G1200 7″ LCD Digital Microscope.
Clap Laugh, Claplaugh, Laugh Clap, and/or Laughclap
When I heard about British diver Tom Daley knitting and crocheting in the stands at the Tokyo Olympics, I did what I suspect a lot of people did as the story has gone viral. I clap laughed. That is, I enjoyed the story and thought so much I was clapping while I was laughing, like applauding him for it while getting enough of a kick from it I was laughing. Except there was one little problem. “Clap laugh” isn’t a proper term, apparently! A DuckDuckGo search for “clap laugh” with quotations to show results of those exact words and spacing, as well as that for “claplaugh” as one word, showed nothing! A Google search showed a few GIFs under the term, some as “laugh clap”. But you know what, for the unofficiality that this is, I’ll stake claim to it!
