Kind friends, followers, and visitors:
Only now learned that each time one thanks others for commenting on their Facebook profile picture, Facebook re-sends the profile photo to everyone’s news feeds as ‘an update.’
Ugh!
Wishing each of you a healthy happy day!

Happiness Between Tails blog/podcast speaks to and from the heart. It connects lovers — of pets, authors, reading — and of my still-unreleased novels. “Flamenco + the Sitting Cat” and “Tango + the Sitting Cat,” are my love letters to all who fear they're too odd, too damaged, too old, too whatever to find love and happiness with or without a partner.

Haha one of the many reasons why I avoid facebook. I still have my page, but I barely ever use it nowadays.

Well….everyone can click the option ‘don’t follow anylonger’…that means they still be friends with the person, but don’t get updates in their new feeds of that person.
I have created a friends-list of ‘best friends’ and the people I want to follow regularly are in there. I don’t even scroll down the news-page of me anymore.
All other connections I hop over every now and then…
About the post comment thing and mis spelling…there is an option to adjust your post after you publised it 😉
Good luck !

Humanness– but I commiserate with what you mean

Very little privacy in an online world. I’m learning to be more and more discrete, having realized that even comments made on other blogs can be traced back to me. Thanks for this tip, Daal.

And just as I hit “Post Comment,” realized I’d spelled “discreet” incorrectly. My stupidity immortalized.

It is a pain, but we must thank those who take the trouble to read and comment

just hate having everyone’s timeline peppered with my profile pic over & over again – perhaps best to thank them direct message

It’s one of my main complaints about Facebook. Every single keystroke can turn into something much larger than you could have possibly imagined. I just got back on after 13 months of my account being dormant. I wanted to see what life would be liked and quite frankly I thrived! I got so much more done, read more books, etc. I only got back on it because my family complained (i.e. pictures of nephews, nieces, birthdays, etc.). And so it goes. – Marty.

Thanks for commiserating, Marty – & glad for your enhanced life! I am paranoid enough that I use it more as a means to post writing related stuff, never anything that might give info about anyone other than myself.
