Always Anti-fascist!

Well, I mock people I love rather frequently...I wouldn't want you to think something's wrong with me. More than the obvious.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Friends with benefits.

Oh, I should have known that.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Oh, I should have known that.

And don't think I'm not judging you because you didn't.

Gud, that doesn't sound breakish at all. I'm sorry.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Women Dominate Most Social Networking Sites, Survey Finds

The Pingdom study, which looked social networking sites (like Twitter, Facebook, and MySpace) as well as social news sites (like Digg, Reddit, and Slashdot), found that 84% of the sites (16 out of 19) had more female than male users.

Only three of the 19 sites had more male users:

The social news sites Digg, Reddit and Slashdot have significantly more male users than female. The standout here is Slashdot which takes male geekdom to new heights with 82% male users.

Woe to the fucking wicked.

It's probably just my corner of the thing, but I would have expected lj to be more female-tilted.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

GO, Allyson, with the benefits having and the Canadian email flirting!

ION, LAistas--We have finally decided to hire a cleaning person once or twice a month. Does anyone know of a good person in The Valley? How does one find a cleaning person anyways? I am loathe to just blindly call an ad on Craig's List for an individual and on the other hand, I hear cleaning services underpay their employees.

I betchya if you broke it down by country, Russian usage is nothing like what we're used to.

Woe to the fucking wicked.

Good point, ita

Now tagless for your comfort.

Go by personal recommendation, Scrappy. You can find someone who's bonded and reliable. I prefer the independent contractor to the Big Corporate Cleaning Services, who tend to underpay their employees.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

That's a gorgeous couch, Steph, now I have couch envy. Will the fabric stand up to cats?

Fortunately, the cats don't use the furniture as a scratching post. It's a tight-weave microfiber that acts and feels like bomber-jacket leather, so fur will practically fall off the couch, which was almost my #1 qualification for New Place To Park My Ass.

It's squooshy yet firm, has 3 cushions (The Boy hates couches with 2, b/c that makes it hard for him to sit in the middle if I'm on an end), and the back cushions have lumbar support BIG TIME, which was unexpected.

It was meant to be. Couch fate.
