Smaller-scale grantwriting really is a whole different animal than big-institution work, but understanding the craziest possible process (big institution, going to say NIH) is good experience for the other.
Reavers ain't men. Or they forgot how to be. Now they're just nothing. They got out to the edge of the galaxy, to that place of nothing, and that's what they became.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

You're not Google's customer. Google's advertisers are their customers. You're Google's product.
Bore repeating. And I have an initial and a pseudonymous name. So I should at least edit the initial. But, and this is the kicker, I can't just do that in Google+. The act of editing my name there edits it in all my google products. But it's been registered as L. as my gmail name for a long time, and I use that email address for people that I don't want to give a full name too. I think I may need to just back out of their full slate of products.
I can see that they're going for the whole hog here, and I don't really want on that train. I can see the benefit from my limited experience as an advertiser, but I really don't want to sell myself that way.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
Yeah, and then you can small-scale grantwrite for me!

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
Liese,
you only need to back out of Google +. They don't remove people (so as I have heard) for using fake names in gmail, etc.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
No, that's the thing, though. If it's clear to me that they want to head that direction (personally identifiable info across all accounts) then, I'm not interested in the product. Or being their product.
In other news, this lolcat is relevant to our interests.

Is LiveJournal still utterly frelled for anyone else?

Hey, le_nubian, did you friend people today on +?

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Connie,
I haven't been able to use LJ since yesterday. Occasionally I get my home page, but can't get my friends page.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
If I'm pretending to be a lesbian with someone to hand, I get handsy. It's not that the person who needs to be convinced signeup for a big show, but I figure some cuddling and some fondling and maybe some kissing gets the point across properly, right?
