Instagram is down

worldwide. Or, at least mostly down. Lots of countries are reporting server error messages.

I used it earlier today, adding three posts without a problem. Shortly thereafter, Instagram dies. I'm not saying I posted anything toxic, but...

You are entitled to your opinion. It happens to be a place where I can relax. Anyone who exhibits tendencies against human rights doesn't get followed by me.

As it is, I hope I haven't lost my postings. And, I follow a list of hot musicians and singers whom I enjoy as they post news about their careers, families, and friends. They keep me from being overly lonely, and I am grateful for them.

I am also grateful for You Tube.

I am sorry if I upset you.

But, it's world wide. I also am wondering if it has broader implications, or if it's just crapping out.

Can you imagine the stress they are under? Couldn't be something like coffee spilled through a single piece of equipment. I instantly thought of all the potential lapses in security that Trump likely caused.

I wonder how many IT guys they have on it, and if they called in anyone special.
