washing the blood off my hands

Can someone explain to me why I'm seeing a cursor on all my non-post-related Dreamwidth pages? I haven't tried any other sites (other than GMail and Twitter -- no cursors) today, so I don't know if its doing it on any other pages, but it's really annoying on DW. Especially since I navigate around my screen primarily with the touchpad scrolling and the arrow scrolling, both of which having a cursor on the screen interacting with said scrolling fucks up.

Did I click a button accidentally? Is this some bullshit the new Firefox update is pulling on webpages with text? Did some bork in Dreamwidth land? D:

So I talk a lot about my friends in here. And it gets old having username after username, plus the html to do that interrupts my typin' flow, so I tend to just use names. However, a lot of my friends either use a pseudonym online, or go by a name completely different from their birth name, or just prefer a nickname or something when being talked about online, or whatever. Thus, this post.

If you have a name you prefer I call you on this journal, leave me a comment with it. All the comments are screened, though I guess it won't be a secret what people want to be called if I start calling them that, but whatever. This goes for anyone. (If you'd prefer a different name than I know but don't think it'd catch on, fuck that noise, I'll still call you by if it you want -- you have no idea how many of my friends have changed their name after I knew them, and I've done that to all of you (and might do it again >.>) so uh, yeah.)

If you don't give a crap or prefer the name I've been calling you, you don't have to comment. Also, if you want, you can throw in preferred pronouns, but I am relatively certain I know all of those for my friends? (I could be wrong, however.)

Friends Only


Comment if'n you're adding me. If you know me, be sure to let me know who you are somehow. And if I've taken you off my friends list and you'd like to be put back on for whatever reason, also let me know. :)

Disclaimer: I'm angsty. I talk quite a lot about things that probably only make sense to me, mainly mental landscapes, spirituality, characters in my head, and the stories I'm writing. That's really what makes up this journal, and I'm pretty candid about it. If that's not your cuppa tea, 'scool.

Be warned: I friend and unfriend people based on how comfortable I am with you knowing a lot about me. I don't like using filters, so I don't censor this journal at all. If, at some point, I find I'm uncomfortable discussing something in here and it is because there are people I don't know well on my flist, I take them off.
