All this fuss over comment emails has made me happier than ever that I don't ever use them.

I mean, let's face it: Comment emails never work properly. If they're not being blocked by one email provider or another, then they're simply not being sent out all right, and vice versa. And sometimes users don't check the box, and then they get upset. I mean....

Does that make the recent debacle a good thing? No. Does that mean you shouldn't be upset it happened? Not at all. Does that mean that I haven't missed a single comment, not even replies to me in communities, not even replies to me in communities where the person didn't know how to reply to a single comment and so it wouldn't've shown up in my email anyway? HELL YEAH.

Because I check all my comments via the recent comments page, and communities I want to keep track of that way to.

Now, if only there were a page to automatically check comments to our posts in communities that we hadn't commented on, I'd be one very happy Connie.

Not to mock your pain, all of you, I'm just happy for me.

Fundamentalists Have Gone Too Far?

What, now? Now they've gone too far? They didn't go too far when some of them started refusing to treat rape victims in hospitals, they didn't go too far when they started refusing to fill standard BC prescriptions, they didn't go too far when they started getting laws passed to allow people to not do their fucking jobs, but this? This is going too far? The guy isn't saying anything that they haven't been saying for years - disease is a punishment for your sins. Unhappiness is a punishment for your sins. Being a self-righteous little prick is a punishment for your sins. Having to spend eternity in the presence of other self-righteous, sanctimoneous little jerks would also be a punishment for your sins, but I'm not sure they'll realize that the joke's on them until it's too late.

I have ceased to even be shocked. Something... something's gotta change, but I don't see how. I'm thinking, though, that it's going to get a whole lot worse before it gets better.
