For those multitudes that were wondering about the results of my search for graph paper that I can work with online for beading patterns, I found a lovely free program that not only has multiple forms of blank beading pattern screens, it comes pre-loaded with the color palette of a major bead manufacturer so you can fill in the colors you need and you'll get a total of the beads you'll need in that color. And it lets you do global replace of a color with another color. Much fun.

Our wings are not tired.

That sounds cool, Connie!

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

Maybe the KLM thing is more attractive to people from other countries they serve

I only have two countries to poll from, but I've found adoption in Jamaica and England lagged sorely behind the US. They might have caught up now, or maybe it's the kids, but even with the maiden name thing in there it's really hard to find my schoolfriends.

Or, maybe it's personal.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

All my Twitter peeps are OBSESSED with it so as a reward for billing 16 hours in the last 24, I am downloading it now.

I am Polter-Cow! I am addicted.

I wouldn't have a problem directing them to my FB profile, but otherwise, fuck them

Um, yeah. Fuck no.

I fully appreciate that companies will and should look FOR my facebook profile. If I'm enough of an idiot to not only use my real name (which admittedly, most people do) AND to leave it public enough for them to read things that would disqualify me? Then I shouldn't be hired, because if something happened, my idiot quotes would be ripe for the picking. But if I'm competent enough to either have a pseud or keep it on lockdown, they know all they need to know. My password is NOT theirs. (And my MAIL password?? Are you KIDDING ME? You just need one bad HR person to reset all my passwords everywhere or something and jack my life!)

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

Asking for ANY social media password is ridiculous. They can't even legally ask for your age, and they would ask for PASSWORDS? WTF?

I will pee in a cup for you, but you will pry my passwords out of my dead, cold and broke hands.

Not even my HUSBAND has any password beyond my laptop login.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

They can't even legally ask for your age, and they would ask for PASSWORDS? WTF?

That's a good point - aside from EVERYTHING ABOUT IT, it's potentially an end run around things they're not permitted to ask about: family status, age, religion.
