- @nikolasco Yeah, I'm not particularly interested in using their service, either. I'd use TOR or something if at all. Thankfully no need—yet. in reply to nikolasco #
- @DarthBitsy Sure, but how does optional #homeschooling (heavily stigmatized in reality BTW) address the issue I see w/"mandatory" schooling? in reply to DarthBitsy #
- @joyynpayne RealTouch.com isn't intended for ppl w/o a penis. Point is they're not serving their INTENDED audience as well as they could be. in reply to joyynpayne #
- Lovely to start my day w/an #HTML5 presentation by @BladeBronson. I feel like I understand #header & "document contexts" better now. Thanks! #
- @splicer No. #Youth should be free to choose how they learn. I don't think opting out of #education is the same as opting out as #school. :) #
- @helio_girl @jamesbcarp What? I think that's silly. Even #youth who hate #school learn all the time. :) It's human nature. Why make it #law? in reply to helio_girl #
- @helio_girl @jamesbcarp Over-legislating is like overcooking. It results in suboptimal results that few feel good about. #youth #school #law in reply to helio_girl #
- @helio_girl Disagree. "Attacking" only 1 part, #law or #youth engagement, isn't a fix. BOTH problem yet there's severe lack of focus on law. in reply to helio_girl #
- Ugh. This is some of the messiest code I've seen in a while. Since when should #CSS have a PHP dependency? I'm getting really frustrated. :( #
- @jamesbcarp Red herring. That's true but NOT an argument for opposing change. My suggestion for "viable model" is currently a 1 word change. in reply to jamesbcarp #
- @helio_girl Good! You fight your battle, I'll fight mine. That's the main point I'm making here—I'm not disagreeing w/you re #school reform. in reply to helio_girl #
- @jamesbcarp Blindly?!? The more forceful #school gets, the fewer are successfully educated there. Removing compulsion encourages persuasion. in reply to jamesbcarp #
- I'm calling it. No sense in throwing more time after #code that's going to need to get rewritten anyway. I've got off-the-clock #work to do. #
- @stacycat Might find Not Your Usual #BDSM & #Abuse Story interesting: http://ur1.ca/hdzt My summary: hard to respect self-disrespecting ppl. in reply to stacycat #
- @jamesbcarp Removing bad laws don't necessitate adding any new ones. Removing govt mandates over personal choices is itself a valid purpose. in reply to jamesbcarp #
- @DarthBitsy Precisely why I'm a huge proponent of informed homeschooling. However "allowing" is NOT the same as "supporting"—not even close. in reply to DarthBitsy #
- Unsurprised so many I know disagree w/my #education and #school ideas—most in my circle are highly educated & products of the system I left. #
- @jamesbcarp Another philosophical divide—changing #law changes other things, including culture. You said it: law of unintended consequences. in reply to jamesbcarp #
- @jamesbcarp That's why I'm supportive of @helio_girl wanting to reform #school. This isn't a linear process, it SHOULD BE a parallel effort. in reply to jamesbcarp #
- Reminds me of science #test I once took. I had a similar answer to this one involving the Ninja Turtles: http://ur1.ca/he4p (via @Aminhotep) #
- Interested to see http://BlackBoxRepublic.com compared w/FetLife. Unhappy re gender skew in intro vid: http://bit.ly/5CH8J3 via @SamLawrence #
- OH FUCK. I totally forgot about http://DeviantsOnline.com tonight. DAMN IT, SELF! I really wanted to go. :( I bet it's too late now, though. #
- @Mollena @sarahdopp Damnit, I so didn't want to miss Deviants Online tonight, and yet it totally slipped my mind until I saw your notice. :( in reply to Mollena #
- @misscalico @avatarkoo I met both @SamLawrence & @aprilblackbox.. They seemed good folks doing good work. Unsure what happened to intro vid. in reply to misscalico #
- Exploring BlackBoxRepublic.com in-depth w/my "founder" acct. Feels solid, slick, but I'm noticing more+more gender-skewed design choices. :( #
- BlackBoxRepublic.com makes a distinction btw "following" & "friending." That's how it should be. @Facebook gets this wrong. /cc @SusanMernit #
- BlackBoxRepublic.com has sliders for one's #GLBT orientation, number of partners (!poly), but a slider for #gender is conspicuously missing! #
- BlackBoxRepublic.com has interesting implementation regarding #Internet #privacy, sharing. I might be "too out" for this site. cc @sarahdopp #
- Reported 3 bugs to BlackBoxRepublic.com w/their thankfully traditional feedback link. No more expanding tabs floating on viewport side, pls. #
- BlackBoxRepublic.com's #privacy options default to 100% private, not public. That's what all #social #media sites' defaults should start as. #
- @avatarkoo I don't think so. BlackBoxRepublic prevents anonymity due to service fee, which no free site does. cc @SamLawrence @AprilBlackbox in reply to avatarkoo #
