Background radio at work: *opening notes of “Call Me Maybe”*
My brain: “♪ My name is Nietzsche, hello/A sort of nihilist bro/Hey, God is dead, did you know?/What is morality? ♫”
#this actually happened *last* week #but I was thinking about it again because last night they played “Counting Stars” #and I ended up with the Awakening of the Birds soundtrack stuck in my head
The fake musical I wrote got stuck in someone’s head! :DDD
(Fun fact: when I originally wrote this I wavered on whether I should ping you in it, and compromised by re-arranging the tags to put “Amenta” in the first five (and therefore eligible for showing up in the tracked tag). While this plan *was* successful, I shall endeavour to just ping you in the future.)
My post of just two hands touching also got flagged as explicit which pretty much confirms this flagging is being done by the Vulcan High Council. Let me post pictures of hands touching, T’Pau.

Somebody subscribed to me on Dreamwidth with a name I didn’t recognize, but by the time I noticed and checked them out they had deactivated, noting that they were creeped out by the fact that the site made your email address public.
In case they see it over here, I wanted to note that while this is the default and therefore kind of a newbie trap, it can be disabled in the settings (along with your birthdate, location and other stuff). You can also choose to show that stuff only to people who are logged into Dreamwidth or only to people you’ve granted access to (i.e., people who can read your private posts). Finally, if you want to show an email but not the email that you use for account admin, there is an option for that, though nowadays having any email exposed on the web is kind of gutsy.
Dreamwidth has a good rundown of site privacy here and here, if you want more detailed information. I wish I could conceal my subscribes and community memberships, but other than that I’m pretty satisfied with how they handle things.
this is a good psa if you’re like me and hastily made an account for later use and didn’t know that a website operational in 2018 would display an email by default D:
1 – Really? Mine is set as “Do not show” and I don’t remember deliberately doing that, so it must have been a pretty seamless part of the account creation process to set that.
2 – Actually this may well be the best email privacy control I have ever seen on the net:
I can pick whether or not to show an email – and even then, I can pick different email addresses for administration and user contact. That’s fantastic.
(But you probably should go check your email default – it might have come completely naturally to me to mark that as “Do not show” during the account creation process, but perhaps not so much for you?)

#PSA #Dreamwidth #(I honestly don’t remember what the default privacy settings were it’s been six years since I originally made the account) #(I know that currently my email is private and my birthday and location are precisely as public as I intended them to be)
The slight possibility that God is waiting until all the peoples of Earth have heard the gospel before he unleashes the apocalypse makes contacting the Sentinelese a completely unacceptable x-risk
For further evidence, consider the kabbalistic implications of “Sentinelese”.

V: Hey Siddy guess what happened with that Luke guy S: I hope you’re contacting me to report he’s been turned, or failing that, taken prisoner, or failing that, killed S: and if you call me Siddy one more time I am officially changing your name to Darth Vaddy on all the official documents V: nah the Luke guy fell down a shaft and my Force senses tell me he’s still alive S: how did you manage to accomplish this particular military outcome using the tens of thousands of troops under your command V: not important V: the important part is S: oh no V: just before he fell down the shaft S: please tell me you didn’t V: I was like “Obi-Wan never told you the truth” S: Vader what is WRONG is with you V: “I am your father!” S: do you HAVE to try to convince every Jedi that you’re their father
