Every planet has its own weird customs. About a year before we met, I spent six weeks on a moon where the principal form of recreation was juggling geese. My hand to God. Baby geese. Goslings. They were juggled.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

I could be less political on FB, but... I kind of don't care. Don't like it? Hide or defriend me. The political is personal, yo, and this is who I am.

One of my conservative FB friends who often posts @@ and wrongheaded stuff also has a lesbian daughter so she posts gay marriage supportive posts too. I am grateful for the opportunity to Like her posts from time to time.

I wonder if it's possible to condition people's behaviours through Liking their posts. It probably wouldn't be ethical to try...

Well, it's probably possible to condition their FB behavior that way. But possibly to distant to influence real behavior.

Though at times I do wish I could status vote things that I see in real life. Like N, a student this week, who is actively nice to each kid in the program would get a Like. People wearing jeggings (WTF?!) would get a Dislike.

Because books.

Jeggings?

Jeggings. They are a horror amalgamation of skinny jeans and leggings. They are all over for Fall, including Target.

Always Anti-fascist!

I can't decide sometimes whether I'm relieved or disappointed not to get into political fights on fb. On one level, the quiet on that front is nice, especially given how often my facebook is "Alan Grayson likes Orlando carrots!1" but, you know, I hate to think that some of these people just friended me to get their Friending stats up or something and don't care what I think.

Oh dear.

I see your jeggings and raise you... pajama jeans.
