Joined Facebook. Eliz is my friend. She issued a relationship request. I confirmed it.

So now I am in a relationship with her. What, the previous N years didn't count? Thanks, Facebook.

It's always really funny to me how they say "such-and such couple is now married" as if they weren't before. Same when someone joins a group or network or something that they were already obviously part of.

I just got a notification a week or so ago that Liam had joined the SCA. Did you know that? I was shocked!

And there are some 5 different SCA groups on FB so you can join it 5 times! Whee!

Facebook has data, and claims to have truth. At best, a social network graph is a projection of the relationships in a real community.

The Crystal Wind is the Storm, and the Storm is Data, and the Data is not Life. It's more like a golem, lumbering around thinking it's alive and annoying people by trying to be their friend. Like C-3PO.
