I had a fantasy today while driving this afternoon.

What if, after you voted, you automatically opted out of all election advertising for that election?

Wouldn't that be nice? No phone calls, no banner ads, no TV spots, no radio ads, nothing. It's a nice fantasy.

Why yes, I did hand in my absentee ballot last week.

A not particularly interesting cross-posting discovery.

As it turns out, while you can set up automatic cross-posting from dreamwidth to LiveJournal, and you can set up automatic cross-posting from LiveJournal to Facebook, it is not transitive. A post will not automatically be cross-posted from dreamwidth to LiveJournal to Facebook.

Not surprising but still somewhat inconvenient.
