I had pretty much stopped using Facebook because it stressed me out too much. The bitter, the hate-filled, the compassion-less, the under-educated and the socially blind, and the Trumpers, these people filled my FB with so much hate that I simply could not stomach reading my Timeline any more ( Read more... )

This is a little rant, a little social commentary, and it is not completely nice. I am not talking about specific people, or naming names, so if you see yourself in anything I write here, I am probably not writing about you. If I am writing about you, don't worry. No one knows you and even if they do they probably already know about what I am ( Read more... )

Ah! There's a new Second Life community group on LJ. It's easygoingssl. It's a newsletter, both in SL and out here.

FYI for anyone who still uses Second Life.

BTW: Hope you all had/are having a good Easter holiday. :)

Livejournal? Dead and dying?

Why is it dead? There are a lot of answers to the why but the linchpin answer is that it is owned by a Russian company.

Obviously, I still use Livejournal.com for my blogging and journaling. I've been on Livejournal since nearly the beginning, in fact, I knew of it back when it was little more than the gleam in the eye of it's founder Brad Fitzpatrick.  I created my first account because of Brad, did a lot of testing with it, and then deleted it as part of a test.

The Livejournal Facebook Connect function keeps disconnecting from time to time here. There is no reason for it. It is Facebook that is doing it, not Livejournal. That's obvious.

It's annoying.

:/

There was a time I stopped writing here on Livejournal more than a post a day or so. It was that I wrote a post and then waited to see if I got any responses. I found that people mostly did not read back very far on their f/list. I wanted people to read what I wrote and was giving them time to read it. That was a mistake on my part because it ( Read more... )

So my niece-in-law posted a set of ultrasound photos on Facebook and commented that "She is waiting to see her mama! Deonna and pops Ren ( Read more... )
