That new Adult Content rating thingy.

I changed my general settings to Adult Content then looked at my LJ.

All of my posts looked the same, with the same cut-tag. The only difference from one post to the next was the title and the music.

"Wow. What a boring journal," I said.

Eh. Forget it. I turned the settings off.

I have a percentage in being interesting to newcomers. Why read if I'm not?

I figure that between the Buddhism, school stuff, the whacked out mom (did I tell you about the time she told my friend Christopher he was the Antichrist?), David Hewlett videos, figure skating, laughing at George Bush our-new-peace-activist, annoying landlady, recs, memes, forgetting which toothbrush is whose -- yeah, I'm not seeing 50% explicit content. That setting's not for me.

In other news -- what did they do to TampaxTM? These haven't changed in 30 years and they're now... ow. They're short and stubby and too wide and shapped all wrong. Ow. This is not a place I want to hurt.

I've got the Adult Content thing turned on for the moment, but I'm not much liking the idea so I think it'll be off again at some point. Realistically, I'm much more concerned about potential future employers finding my journal than underage kids. Can LJ set up a filter for that? :D

No comment on the Tampax, but have you considered a menstrual cup? Much more comfortable than a tampon and cheaper and more environmentally friendly too! [profile] menstrual_cups is a really good resource, if you're interested.

I'm not all that open to change in this regard. I'm already displeased at having to change tampon brands.
