Finally got around to updating my profile page. Tweaked some stuff, and added a few bits. But just to make sure everybody reading this now is on the same page, allow me to present:
***
THINGS YOU SHOULD KNOW:
1. No need to ask if you want to friend me. I'm not shy.
2. No need to feel bad if you want to defriend me. I won't take it personally.
3. If you friended this journal because you love the talk about politics, be aware that there's also a lot of gay porn. (See also: #2)
4. If you friended this journal for the gay porn, be aware that there's also a lot of talk about politics. (See also: #2)
4a) Gay porn typically means slash, which means fanfic written about two male characters who'd very much like to see one another naked. This also sometimes means fic about real people doing the same thing, and sometimes means fic about fannish characters who are so out of character that you'll wonder why I'm even bothering to call it fanfic. I cut-tag and warn accordingly. If you click on the cut tags and don't like what you see then you've pretty much only got yourself to blame for that one. (See also: #2)
5. If you friended this journal for the porn and the politics, be aware that there's also going to be a lot of posts about cooking, my family, my cats, and whatever the hell else flits through my mind up to and including "Did you know tomato plants smell like tomatoes?". (See also: #2)
6. If you disagree with me, my opinions, or anything else about me, you're welcome to flame me all you like. I can take it. If you flame anyone who comments in my journal, regardless of whether or not I personally agree with their opinion, I will step in and start deleting your posts. Discussion amongst yourselves is fine. Flamewars are not. (See also: #2)
7. My posts are 99.999999999% public. If you want to know me, or my context, it's all right there for anyone who's interested. As I write for myself, and my friends, I don't take the time to footnote absolutely everything and do things like explain that it's okay that I just cracked a joke about big-breasted, blonde, semi-pagan, semi-Catholic, Scotch-Irish-Italian, former Republican, still bisexual girls who live in the suburbs 45 min outside of New York City because I am one. I'm sorry if anything I say comes off bad out of context but, well, that's why we call it out of context. My journal, I write how I want to. You're welcome to go "Hey!" if you want, but that's the writing style that you're going to get here. (See also: #2)
8. If you've made it this far, you may now have pie.
9. Nice to meet you =)

I think that about covers it. Now to go snuggle with my cats, grab a shower, and then go to bed. Not at the same time, obviously. I'll post on belly dance class #4 tomorrow.
