| Bio: | Rating: MA This journal contains adult themes. That's because I am an adult. I discuss topics such as contraception, abortion, mental illness, feminism, porn, politics, literature, film, and, occasionally, philosophy. I also swear whenever I feel so inclined. If this sounds too grown up for you, you should stop scrolling now, and click away from this page. Kthnxbai. Stuff about me: One day I hope to be I have a second journal, ![[info]](http://p-stat.livejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif){kind=small} reflexionen, which is for reflections of a philosophical and speculative nature. This means I update it about twice a year.Along with divafu, I moderate ![[info]](http://p-stat.livejournal.com/img/community.gif){kind=small} 2hot4philosophy, the hottest philosophy community on Live Journal.
Some LiveJournalese: Privacy Policy: Certain entries are restricted. Basically anything about my life. A disclaimer about 'lj friends': 1. Definition Being my 'friends-list' doesn't automatically make us friends, but neither does it automatically stop us from becoming friends. Online friendships are just like any other, they depend on things like shared interests, compatible personalities and time and effort. The friends list is, as it is designed to be, the list of those journals that I read on a semi-regular basis. 2. Adding lj friends If I added you it's probably because I saw something you wrote in a community, in comments, or because you were recommended as someone I might like to read. I have no objections to people adding me, this is livejournal and it's not up to me if someone is interested in reading my public entries. Feel free to say hi and that you've added me, but there's no obligation to do so. Likewise, feel free to drop me off your list without notice. However, don't get offended if I don't add you back. I try to keep my list to a manageable level, and this means restricting it to those journals I'm actually going to read on a regular basis. Every now and then I will check the journals of those who have added me and which aren't on my regular reading list. If I like what I see, I may add your journal to my list. 3. Trust Having a journal that I want to read isn't the same as being someone I trust with certain information about myself. Most (70% or so) of my entries are locked. In addition, I use several filters. Sometimes I label my filtered posts, sometimes I don't. Whether someone is on any of my filters is entrely up to me. Other stuff: Icons All the uncredited icons on my userpics page were made by me. Some of them I made for sharing. Others I made just because I wanted them. I can't control what people do on teh interwebs, but it would be appreciated if people asked before using my icons, and mentioned that they were made by me on their userpics page.
