I was also confused about the comments about ILX being "blue," but I've been a blueski/blueski2 user for years.

The most insidious thing about Facebook to me is how it got so many people relying on it as a primary source of communication and only then started in on this "follow most of Johnny Bluejeans' posts" bullshit. I feel like half the posts people make are shuttling directly into the void, unseen by many. But at least I still get Spotify updates and indications of people having read ghe Washington Post!

That's cool, jaymc and I will hang out and eat quinoa and talk about how awesome blueski2 is.

is there a way to untag yourself from someone else's timeline post?

you can remove it from your wall but i don't think you can do anything else, maybe except unfriending them?

yeah. having checked it at the very least once a week (tho not posted nearly that often) for literally my entire adult life, this has been an interesting change.

xxposts crut - change your settings so that only friends tag you & that you get notified when they do - then you can veto if you dont wanna b tagged
but i dont think you can untag anymore?

untagging erodes the network and thins the data; it is saboteur behavior and i am reporting u for counseling crut

npr's ominous eyeball there reminds me of my least favorite 1984 cover

I think facebook has actually made me sad a lot of times and it's only just clicked that that's the case

i.e. the feeling is 'Ah, there goes Person X/Y/Z, progressively further and further away from me into the Void* ...', and that only arises from seeing many regular updates – if instead I was receiving rare letters I might instead get a feeling of 'Ah, long time no contact, how warm'. Perhaps.
*The Void = London/Magaluf/Sidney respectively

do y'all stay facebook friends with your exes? there's one in particular who i talk to on the phone nearly every week but who i'm not facebook friends with. hearing from her what she's up to feels really different than just having facebook send me unsolicited reminders via the newsfeed about how our lives have gone off in different directions.

maybe facebook should just change it's corporate motto to "NOTHING LASTS".
