Administrative: Opt-in Filters

[thefourthvine]

Sorry, non-earthling filter people! I accidentally posted the earthling voting story unlocked. Which makes this a good time to do some housekeeping, I think.

Almost a year ago, I ran a poll asking people if they wanted to be on my pregnancy filter. That filter became, in the fullness of time, the baby filter. And it's been a while since I asked if people wanted to be on it (it's totally opt-in, and anyone who has me friended (for ease of adding) can be on it; I just don't want to clutter people's friends lists with pictures of my kid unless that's what they want). Or off it.

So. To save my sanity, I'm reinserting that old poll. If you've already taken it, you're already on the earthling filter. (Unless you haven't been seeing the posts, in which case there's some kind of administrative error on my part. Please comment and say so!) If you want to be on the earthling filter and you're not, the way ahead of you is clear.

[Poll #1097994]

But perhaps you are on the earthling filter and wish you were not! If so, this poll is for you:

[Poll #1291677]

I just got turned on to the existence of the Earthling filter by starwatcher307 -- I would love to be added, please? (I'm straddling both LJ and DW right now, and have just friended you here and subscribed to you on DW and hope that covers the necessary bases; I'm still learning DW's ropes.)

Also -- I may have known once, but had forgotten, that you wrote the I Has A Sweet Potato post, which is a post that makes me happier than any person probably has a right to be every time I read it (again, which I do when I need some extra joy in my life). Thanks for all that happiness!

Hi! I have added you to the earthling filters, here and on DW; that means you can catch up on the entire earthling backstory on LJ, if you want to (http://thefourthvine.livejournal.com/tag/*earthling), and you'll be able to follow his ongoing adventures on either site. (It took me a while to get the earthling filter up and running on DW, largely because I made the LJ one while I was pregnant, and by the time DW came along, so had the baby, and I didn't have any more TIME.)

And I'm glad to hear that the sweet potato post brings you joy. The Dog of that story was Cassie, and she was the best dog in the world. It makes me happy to know that people on the internet still remember her. I will never forget her.
