After LJ's big announcement of their new content-flagging scheme, I changed my journal settings to "Adult Concepts". I don't do explicit images, and any explicit or graphic text is way back in the archives, but I reserve my right to post such in the future, and to use such expletives as strike my fancy.

Yesterday, I wanted to read my syndicated feeds, but I didn't bother to log in. I've put them in a public filter for just that reason. Imagine my surprise when LJ popped up a warning box to make me verify that I'm over 14 years old. Explain to me why my friends page (or a filter thereof) should be flagged the same as my journal itself? Aren't these flags supposed to be journal-specific? I would have expected to see any or all of the feeds that weren't themselves flagged as adult. Same should apply to any public friends view.

I'm now expecting to have my journal disappear behind the company firewall as "adult content" due to the damned flagging, and am wondering whether to change the setting to avoid it. I do also have it set to "no searching", which may or may not also make a difference.

Grrr.

Yesterday Rosa and I played hide-and-seek for a while, and then we stopped to put away clothes. Chris was watching TV and folding laundry in the TV room. While I was embroiled in my pile of laundry, she said "It's my turn to hide" and took off. Some while later, the following ensued.

Cellphone: *bingle*
Text message from Chris: "Where you @?"
Thumbs: *type type* "Bedroom"

Chris: "Are you hiding or is she?"
Me: "Her. I'm putting away."
Chris: "Aaah. When does seeking start?"
Me: "Shrug"

I then left off the Putting Away and commenced Seeking. Found the baby in the same place I had hidden the previous turn: Chris's closet.

This morning, I found the following message on my phone from yesterday afternoon.

Chris: "I only ask because my closet is getting impatient, and a little scared of the dark."
