Most of the people who responded to my wtf about the education level question on the wiscon survey thought my problem was that it was irrelevant (it was in the demographic section where you expect those types of things) or the awkward phrasing. Nope. My problem, s that usually when the education level demographic question comes up, one of the options is "did not complete high school." This option was not available. I was not offended, but just lightly "wut?" over the assumption that there were no dropouts who would attend wiscon, and the "high school" option didn't even include the usual "or equivalent."

This is why I am usually not out about my dropout status, and tend to remove myself to the bathroom when people start talking about their education.

That's great, thanks!
A friend of mine is in a writing group with her, so I got to tell her personally that I liked her work, which was super cool. I like when I get to do that, and I don't do it enough because I'm too shy.

I'd written down the dailycabal website somewhere in my notes, but now I can go right over there without having to sort through them all, so, yay! :)
