    URL Change

    By Andrea Menzies

    Long live FH7Books.com at WordPress the old URL at FH7publishing.com is dead. Podcasts and other posts are now on FH7Books.com forever. The GoDaddy webpage started to block all users, and was not cheap. I tried moving it to cheaper hosting in a gamble for better service and lost. I only bought a webpage to save photos to someplace other than social media as lawsuits like the one mentioned in the NPR Facebook Contagion article https://www.npr.org/sections/alltechconsidered/2014/06/30/326929138/facebook-manipulates-our-moods-for-science-and-commerce-a-roundup show many forms of social media are VERY harmful. First I just saved pictures on my computer, but a crash destroyed many. Then Yahoo email photos, then Flicker, then Photobucket, then Dropbox, then Facebook, then Google, then Instagram. The flavor of the week changes daily, and one account hack can destroy thousands of photos forever. Google just tried to lock me out of Google drive this month. I am on my fourth Facebook account as abusive ex-boyfriends with tiny computer hacking skills have stalked me on the Internet trying to destroy my social media pages. WordPress.com is the one place in years that has NOT destroyed my digital photos, but it lacked space on the free plan. Now it is my private webpage plan to save years of photos, and to make a personal webpage that is useful again. I will resume doing podcasts as the web transfer hassle ends.

  • Facebook Emotional Contagion Study

    Facebook Emotional Contagion Study

    By Andrea Menzies

    How are so few people talking about the about the Facebook Emotional Contagion Study where about 700,000 people had their posts manipulated with lies by Facebook, and courts said it was okay due to terms of service saying they can conduct research? I am taking night school classes. Part of the homework was to take the ethics class online at the CITI Program on Social and Behavioral Research clinical section. Some parts of the certificate discussed the Hippocratic Oath and medical privacy which made me want to study healthcare really badly. Some of it discussed unethical practices in clinical research and one part was “Internet-Based Research-SBE” by Alejandro Martinez with a section called “Facebook Emotional Contagion Study and considerations it raised for future researchers and IRB” saying it was lawsuit worthy unethical. I passed the class with all A grades.There were so many lawsuits about lies on Facebook made by Facebook. Why are so few people talking about how Facebook is killing people as lab rats? It is written into their terms of service that they can just manipulate people for research whenever they feel like it. They received no consent from users to do research other than information buried in the terms of service. I quit Facebook before, but I went back on because several of my Texas friends got sick in the hospital and it was the only way to say get well soon. Now I am limiting my posts again because people are highly underestimating how evil Facebook truly is daily. If your phone goes dead there are few printed maps, and no phone books as people have traded most all paper printed information for the digital print. Is that really such a great idea? Before Trump people thought the lies were no big deal. It is becoming lawsuit worthy daily.

  • Health USA

    Health USA

    By Andrea M

    Countries with far less money in comparison to the United States have Universal Healthcare for all citizens. When people are sick they can NOT work a lot of hours so having health insurance tied to a job guarantees you will lose it when you most need it. I am dealing with this gem of a logic flaw this week.

    Meanwhile the billionaires have seen record profits this year. Also they have record tax breaks.

  • Never Use Amazon Pharmacy

    By Andrea M

    Never use Amazon Pharmacy they are complete garbage with medicine and insurance. They claim they send prescriptions in the mail with no line waiting. They will not give you your doctor prescriptions, and the one customer service number they have has complete jerks working there that will scream at you. If there is a problem with your insurance they have no cash payment options. They lose your prescriptions in the mail and say you have taken too much of the medicine you did not get. If you have a problem at Walgreens or CVS you can complain to a manager, Google, and Yelp. Amazon pharmacy has disabled these complaint options, and has no local branches to review so they can do oceans of bad service unnoticed. Here is the one place I can warn people Amazon Pharmacy is garbage. #amazon-pharmacy-is-garbage

  • A Nightmare Poem About Virginia

    A Nightmare Poem About Virginia

    By Andrea Menzies

    Many times I have woken up from screaming nightmares to post emotional things about my hatred of Virginia and the rapist beaters populating the Fort Lee military base. I chickened out and deleted many of them. Not because they are not true, but because people in Virginia would rather torture me than understand the truth that rapists and beaters populate the Fort Lee military base in Virginia. This one I will not chicken out on, and I owe it to my constant nightmares to post it freely. Here is a simple poem about the constant anger I face as my family has tried to trap me in the garbage-pit that is Virginia. My phone was lit up like a Christmas tree with friends calling me, being nice to me, and inviting me to parties when I did not live in the disgusting pit called Virginia. In Virginia all I have known is anger and pain as they torture me daily for refusing to be a rape slave to military men. My only dream of joy is to go to enough night school, and make enough money to travel coast to coast, saying Virginia is the rapist beater pit I forever hate the most.

    A Nightmare Poem

    Rapists All Fort Lee

    Rapist Rapist human sewage all Fort Lee,

    Rapist Rapist my tortured eyes did see!

    Military men disgust me,

    every branch of military men disgust me,

    they are all rapist beaters,

    they are all sewage beater.

    That is all I ever-ever saw with my eyes.

    All of Virginia rapist-hole sewage-hole,

    All of Virginia rapist-hole hate it so.

    Have not had one single happy memory in ya

    Ugly, ugly, sewage-sewage hole called Virginia.

    Sewage-rapists All Fort Lee!

    Hate them all eternally!

    Rapists, rapists all Fort Lee!

    Nightmare, nightmare, human sewage.

    They said they would train me

    said they would give me a job.

    They gave me no joy

    soul and dignity they did rob.

    I’m going to travel from coast to coast,

    saying Virginia is the rapist pit

    I forever hate the most.

    My only dream and goal,

    is to drive screaming from the nightmare hole,

    hate you forever Virginia…

    Hate you forever Virginia…

    *Note the Tuesday review podcast is late by a day due to computer crash and reboot.

    It was tax refund time, and my old computer crashed. I sprang for an HP Victus laptop. I have gone back to a master’s degree night school program, and have hundreds of reports to write. The same processors that can play games well can also write, type, and print better as I need that badly for grades. Grades get money, scholarships, and jobs eventually. Part of my brain says “no don’t spend money,” but another part says “if you buy cheap you get cheap, and buy twice.” I will write the full review later as I just finished unboxing the thing and it is charging.

  • Xymox Show Baltimore

    By Andrea Menzies

    I got tickets to Xymox a band I have two records and countless songs from on CD! I would like to thank the Baltimore Soundstage for putting on this great show of the band I have loved since I was a kid. Too bad it was almost too expensive to do, as corporations have made going out an expensive nightmare. The Xymox band are a big hit amongst Siouxie and the Banshees band fans as they are a famous European band.

    I have also seen the Sisters of Mercy play at Baltimore Soundstage on September 17 of 2024, and VNV Nation April 1, 2024, and Depeche Mode September 7, 2017 in the area so I know it will be a good show. All the above listed bands are top 40 popular bands from Europe. Virginia only has horrible garbage music playing so I know I will have to get an apartment near Baltimore to hear any good music.
