[Blindtlk] Tumblr

[Carly Mihalakis]

Good Monday evening, Jason,

         Being that for most of us, the life battles we face are 
often as plentiful as they are intense, I don't fight back if 
something happens not to be accessable for us and calmly send an 
e-mail the regular way and leve it at that. Besides, those social 
networks, I think, are known to sensor your correspondence! So then, 
what are they good for? To keep up with the Jones'? At 12:34 PM
