I wonder if there are any tintype classes I could find around here? I don't have the resources to own a camera or the other appurtenances (chemicals! darkroom!) but a class where those were supplied would be wonderous.

If you want, I can ask my tintype-taking friends and see if they have any info.

But what do they need my FB friends list for?

Because somewhere in the fine print you've already granted permission for them to contact your friends on their behalf.

I didn't actually use my FB login for Kickstarter. I'm gonna just create a separate Kickstarter account.

eta: I'm now backing a print book of the excellent web-comic Strong Female Protagonist.

It is harder to get a sharp image with actual tintype cameras, but according to some folks I know who actually do tintype photography, the ones featured in the article are not good examples.

I suspect one would have to see them in actual life, and also, as well, too, raise a skeptic's brow at them while muttering under my breath about sour grapes.

OMG, email is STILL down here for many people. What a nightmare!

Pushbullet, which sounds like a great way to get scraps to and from my Android devices uses a Google account for authentication. I barely have words to explain how anti that I am. I only log into Google apps in incognito windows, and if the tab I want to push isn't also in that window, I might as well send myself an email, pretty much.

I get outsourcing your security since so many people suck at their own, but staying logged in on my primary browsing devices? They already get enough from my phone.

eta: Amy, I'll look at those when I get home. I wonder if I can even order prints from here. Even though dA is SFW from work, it still scares me to go there.

This should probably go in Movies, but this was just to adorably hilarious not to share: [link]

ita, I like Shark Sam, but that's probably no surprise. For printing, I agree with msbelle's choice.

Heh. Thanks.

My job is clamping down on working from home (did I mention we were sold, are now publicly traded, and there have been major management shakeups?). My boss asked me what my position was on it, and I was probably unwise to say "If commuting five days a week is a requirement of the job, I can't do the job."

But at the very least I have to do the HR ADA dance again.

I have been wearing sunglasses inside all day because my right tear duct is either leaking or plugged and sore and the light just kills it. I am assuming Walgreens sells eyepatches.

Timelies all!

Still not on Facebook. I spend too much time online as it is.
