Buffistas

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.

each wondering what the other was doing.

But we would wonder anyway. Instead of thinking "Am I blocked or not?" we would think "Is he intentionally ignoring me or not?"

Gus, there are no apologies necessary, but to be clear you and I were posting at the same time. The greater point is ignoring or blocking? for me, it's all the same.

Blocking doesn't cause a greater sting than being ignored.

Bag the crypto. Say what is on your mind.

No kidding, Kat, you are one of my favoritests ever. I might have missed your posts because I was laboriously ordering my thoughts to respond to someone else, coupled to my inherent inabilty to rattle the keys.

ignoring or blocking? for me, it's all the same.

It isn't, though. You might have cut me some slack, if had not had to wonder ... "Is he blocking me?"

Okay, maybe it would still have stung as much. When I get cross- or over-posted, I have misgivings, too.

No. For ME (and I'm still only writing for me) it is pretty much the same. I assume some people have me blocked and it's okay. It's most likely not like we had a lot of conversation going anyhow.

If everytime I posted I had to view blocking as worse than ignoring and then extrapolating that out to caring if people are blocking me, seeing it as a referendum on who I am, then it would be insane making.

Luckily toughening up the skin is a resolution for me in 2005.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

Am-Chau, I'll get right on that.

Okay, this is bizarre. I got the password reset (when I worked out that it would be at my old e-mail address). However, when I use the new password, I get the same thing as before: it sends me back to index.php, and asks me to log in or register. I can read, but not post or subscribe or anything else that requires logging in.

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

Dana has problems getting in there too.

Hmm.

Well, I'm going to let it rest for now -- the subscribe bug is fixed, and Gus is working on the other feature I was putting up for test.

When I reopen for testing, I may copy over the current user table, and see if that makes a difference.

Good work on fixing the bug, ita. And I'm willing to test again whenever.

Lee, I never got the e-mail.
