I’m normally an inbox-zero kind of person, because unaddressed notifications are super stressful for me. But I haven’t used gmail for anything but spam in a several years so this prompted me to go have a look:

3,958 in my inbox - and instead of stress, I love it. Over 1300 of those are because I, apparently, never deleted my ~~xenophobia.com~~ nextdoor account.

~~xenophobia.com~~ lol, that’s so true though. On mine there is a lady who posts about 100 times per day, so she clearly doesn’t have a job. And she is obsessed with thinking there are gunshots. We live in a super safe suburban neighborhood. There are no gunshots. It’s hilarious.

  I stopped visiting very shortly after it opened up because every post was stuff like you said:
  
  "Where those gunshots?"
  
  No it was the prick 2 blocks over that lights off fireworks all year long or the train yard that’s about a mile from here.
  
  "Tall man in hoodie walks down street! Who has photos?"
  
  I might. I’m tall, usually wear a hoodie, and am able to walk.
  
  "Thieves walk among us! I left a bowl of walnuts on my porch overnight and now they’re gone!!!"
  
  That explains the squirrel sitting on my fence patting its belly.
  
  I used to think I just had extra shitty neighbors, but I’ve heard similar from a lot of people.

    Maybe it’s not that the neighbours are awful but that the subset of neighbours that use this kind of app is mostly awful.

  It’s me. I clap some 2x4s together occasionally, to keep her on her toes.

  We did have a hilarious troll who would rage about people taking a shit in their mailbox. Or maybe someone really kept shitting in their mailbox. Either was it was an entertaining read.

    While I don’t disagree with you, she looks to be in her 50s. That’s hardly old. But yes, they fall prey to every single propaganda piece ever written on FB.
