Anonymous asked: Asexual Activities could probably benefit from having a comments section, since people are mostly interacting anonymously (hello!), and there do are some tumblr themes that allow Disqus, so

That might be a good idea.  Has anyone set this up before?  How well does it support anonymous comments, and are there some kind of controls to keep away the trolls?  Is it easy to see what’s getting commented on?

I don’t know that much about the details of Disqus–I’ve never administrated one, and it’s been a while since I commented on them frequently–but it’s definitely a lot easier to keep track of what’s being said. You can sign up for email notifications on a thread, even if you haven’t commented on the thread (which means you can also sign up if you only commented anonymously). I’ve seen Blogspots running Disqus who had a “Recent Comments” sidebar widget, but I don’t know if you can do that on Tumblr.

Feeling I’d be interested in seeing if other people have:

It’s this sort of burned-out, kind of icky, fatigue/restlessness that shows up after excessive amounts of tv, video games, or internet. It is an “I have squandered the day” feeling, but physical instead of mental. I’m not talking about normal internet usage, I’m talking about things like “I spent the last five hours on Cracked”.

Does anyone else get this?

Yup. That is the worst.

Yeah, it’s a very distinctive feeling.

*nod* Like the psychological equivalent of eating too many potato chips.
