I've had two people I watch, who also watch me, tell me that they aren't seeing my submissions in their watch feed.  I'm going to check on people who usually submit regularly to see if that's happening to them in my watch too...I wish they would get this damn thing organized so it works right. ..and.. while we are at it.. give us back the damned birthday notifications.. how hard can that be???  Jeez

"At this festive season of the year, Mr. Scrooge," said the gentleman, taking up a pen, "it is more than usually desirable that we should make some slight provision for the Poor and Destitute, who suffer greatly at the present time.  Many thousands are in want of common necessaries; hundreds of thousands are in want of common comforts, sir."

Charles Dickens.. "A Christmas Carol"

With the state of the world the number of poor and hungry is increasing greatly. Many have lost jobs , and the jobs they had depended upon may never return...many who have jobs are earning much less now than they need to survive.  They need our help.  You wont be going on that extravagant vacation this year with the travel restrictions, there won't be  gatherings  where you can show off that shiny new bauble , or the fancy new clothes, or the cool new gadgets. Why not buy less and share some of your bounty with the less fortunate..it's by far the best gift you will ever give.  Think of how many could be fed or given warm clothing with just that fancy bracelet or watch you bought last year.  This is the time for the world to consider everyone  a part of the family... the human family.

"No man is an island entire of itself; every man  is a piece of the continent, a part of the main;  if a clod be washed away by the sea, Europe  is the less, as well as if a promontory were, as  well as any manner of thy friends or of thine  own were; any man's death diminishes me,  because I am involved in mankind.  And therefore never send to know for whom  the bell tolls; it tolls for thee.'  John Donne

Veterans Day is a day to remember , reflect, and give thanks to all who served and are serving to guarantee our freedom and way of life... Thank a Veteran today

I assume it happens automatically  somehow..but I would be very interested in knowing how to disable "likes a comment" posts!.. 2/3 of my inbox its "..such and such likes a comment" .. I do not need to know this.. .. I'm happy if you like my comment.. but this is something I DO NOT need to be told.. I would be ecstatic if  someone knows how to shut that function off!!

End of Rant

UPDATE:  If anyone else is of the same opinion  , Stygma as kind enough to provide a link to go voice your suggestion to allow us a way to disable "likes"  PLEASE
