Rape culture is so, so prevalent and I'm glad you know that. I think feminism is much needed in the world we live in, to progress towards equality and change. I don't agree with showing hatred toward someone in a discriminatory way, but I can relate to getting angry about things that are going on that need to change. We all get angry at things sometimes. I don't think people realize how hard it is for women and girls to live in the world today with so much institutionalized violence against women and sexism and so little being done about it. The #metoo movement gives me a bit of hope. We might be moving forward. Very slowly, but we'll get there if we don't give up. The Harvey Weinstein thing sheds a lot of light on how the women have been treated in Hollywood over the years, and I think women in every other line of work can relate. Sadly, the problem is bigger than people think but it is finally coming to the world's attention. I just hope that we don't go backwards from now. Sorry for the late reply, I don't know when you wrote the note but I stopped looking at my notes for ages and then randomly looked and saw yours. Thanks for stopping by. :)

If I look back far enough, I can see where she still loved me.

from dangerspouse :

Pfff. Grammar be for suckers, sucker. Besides, at least I wrote something. Where YOU been, huh? You and your self-proclaimed "I'm gonna breathe life back into Diaryland!"...and then hiding behind Password Protect. I'd rather mangle the mother tongue in public than be privately pedantic. C'mon, join us hoi polloi out in the open air again! (Or at least - again asking - shoot me out the password keys.)

from dangerspouse :

YO! You still around? You went around a while back seeing who was still tossing up entries here. Did you scoot after satisfyong your curiosity? Waddup?

from dangerspouse :

Hey Jay, what's it take to get your secret decoder ring password?

from siva0 :

from stardumb :

from pink-sapfire :

Stopping by to show a lil love. hugs.

from cloudy-night :

Sorry, forgot to respond. As you can see, I am still around. Off and on though...

from batten :

I hardly ever check my notes but I still check in from time to time. Few of my old d-land friends still write here. I rarely update usually just leave placeholders so I don't lose 10 years of entries. Time, it fleets.

from se7enchance :

Sir or madam. I do check my notes, albeit irregularly. I enjoy your writing thus far, when I'm feeling focused and coherent enough for it. Why the cast net across Our Land?

from moodswing :

Yet somehow the very things I still love about this reliable old girl make it tough to connect with everyone.

from moonbaby8u :

Its like the titanic .....Ill never let go :)

from tinea :

hello there.

from starkitten01 :

Received your note- Yes I am and yes I do. : )

from retro-cat :

Hallo!:)

from degausser :

Ain't that the truth?

from anarchrist7 :

For previous note, I'm thinking more specifically the subject of the beginnings of anything and how its origins cannot be explained by science (by science's own definition of what is scientific). If we assume that "God" IS that beginning of everything, than we really can't escape dogmatism, as there can't be faith (or belief) in the face of certainty (or proof). To be open to others' thoughts or to try thinking your way to an answer is, in this case at least, pointless. But I wholeheartedly agree that thinking and tolerance to opposing conclusions need to be exercised regularly. Arguments need to evolve to debates. Mabe one day ;-)

from anarchrist7 :

I enjoy your writing. Been a very long time since I was able to speak/write in that fashion. I'm rusty, but I have a question for you regarding your Conceptual Fallacy entry: Would you say that it's fair to say that something is not real if both the subject in question itself AND the concept of said subject cannot be rationalized, at least within the scope of our current collective understanding?

from julymalaise :

Oh well...now I know where Inside Job Day comes from. Now I'll know what people mean if they make a reference to the day by that title.

from floodtide :

All you have to do is ask: username 'recondite'; password 'phoenix'. All I ask is that you delete this note so that these don't stand for long in your publicly viewable notes.

from aryssa90 :

What I write in here is not indicative of all of my thoughts by the way. It's more of a place for me to spew my emotions.

from outer-jessie :

Heh, what a totally flip thing I just said. I thought you were a brand-new diarist, but it turns out I can only see a teeny slice of what you've been posting all this time. Never mind my dumb-assery!

from outer-jessie :

Hello! I see you have some thoughts. What are you going to do with them?

from julymalaise :

What's Inside Job day, if I may ask?

from silver4 :

from orgami :

from raven72d :

I've met some very good folk here, some of whom have become good friends over the years, and I enjoy staying in contact through notes and entries. Also--- I like the ability to do long-form writing here. Unlike, say, Tumblr, I can write something that might be 3-4pp. if printed...so I have space to let my thoughts run, as well as getting to read longer essays by others. D-Land is easy to use, which matters for someone like me who has very limited tech skills.

from barefootruby :

I check my notes - maybe once or twice a week

from eloira :

Hello back. I do check notes, when I think of it!
