In case anybody wants to read my review. [link]

I almost "reinvented" Pinterest while thinking about having a vision board without all the cutting and collagey bits.(Sometimes I think the Universe, especially the Universe-as-Concierge so beloved by "Law of Attraction" people, has totally forgotten that I'm here at all. Well, I am, damn it! Anyone? Bueller?) But I'm okay with not inventing Pinterest, except that the person who did might have a lot of money right now, and that might make a nice change. And I really don't think I'm the vision board type, really. Trying to do affirmations more than a few times used to either make me giggle self-consciously when alone or, in a group, made me afraid that I might yell out something disgusting--I never did, but....

Pinterest was the bane of my existence when I was checking copyright on videos instructors created. They’d credit images to Pinterest and I’d have to go back to them and explain how Pinterest isn’t the copyright holder for much of anything. “But that’s where I found it!” My dude. I cannot explain to you how much Pinterest isn’t the owner of, for example, an image of Mickey Mouse with a lightsaber. But I can tell you how much fair use won’t stretch, and adding that to your for-profit Coursera course is not an option. Coursera will take down your entire course site before Disney’s lawyers have a chance to eat you for lunch and that is the best case scenario.

That would take some tracking down, yeah, and Pinterest doesn't really create anything.(It was nice for a moment to envision a future long enough to need visions for it, but I decided I don't need the little pictures.)

I enjoy scrolling through Pinterest now that I have no professional issues with it. It’s great for finding pictures of haircuts to show my stylist.

Oh, I know that feeling well! I actually was pretty good at tracking down rights info for randoms who would contact us with "I found this clip on YouTube and put it in my movie, now I have a distribution deal so can I license it please?"

Ugh. On several other topics, thought y'all would enjoy this. [link]

I went 11 months without a period . And today ...it happened.

Oct 1 would have been a year. Now I get to start my count all over again

This is where I insert the gif of Stacker Pentecost yelling "Reset the clock!" from Pacific Rim.

I made it 6 months, almost to the day, and got my damn period. So I really sympathize with you -- 11 months was SO CLOSE. That sucks.

I really feel like I don't know what will happen there. Mine have always been strange, and literally everything about CP online is written for someone who never heard of it before, anyway.
