"This summer when you're being #inundated with all this American bicentennial Fourth Of July brouhaha, don't forget what you're celebrating, and that's the fact that a bunch of slave-owning, aristocratic, white males didn't want to pay their taxes." #SpringSentiments #DazedAndConfused

Hey, Littens! Is anyone else receiving some but not all posts you‘ve been tagged in? I‘m in 2 book mark up groups and I am definitely NOT receiving all of my messages from my co-reader/writers. I notice when I look at someone‘s feed, I see I‘ve been tagged but I know I was not notified (I‘m rather obsessive about checking Litsy when I‘m involved in a swap of any kind). Any thoughts?

Bostonmomx2 I haven‘t noticed anything odd myself but things def seemed jacked up since the server migration. Always really frustrating. 7y
Laughterhp That‘s happened to me once or twice previously (as far as I know!) I don‘t know if it‘s the way someone maybe tags you.. or if it‘s just an error. It happened to me before the server upgrade. 7y
CocoReads It‘s happened to me off and on even before the server migration. And for instance, I got 2 notifications saying you tagged me in this post but I‘m only tagged once? 7y

cobwebmoth This happens to me sometimes. I'll get a notification that I've been tagged, but then I'll check my list of notifications here in the app and it won't show that I've been tagged. I'm not sure why it happens. 7y
GarthRanzz It‘s happening to me. I only found about three of my #KingAtoZ posts that I was tagged in because I went through the actual tag to find them. The don‘t show on my profile page at all. Been happening the last two days at least. 7y
cherinium I can't say that I've noticed, but I'm also not sure that I would notice something like that. 7y
Craftylikefox I don‘t think I‘ve been missing any??? 7y
shadowspeak17 That‘s happened to me a couple times too. 7y
LibrarianRyan THANK YOU! I have felt the same way. Or I'll get a notice so so and did what, then open litsy and not see the same thing. I thought it was just me. 7y

I was tagged by @Gyldholm for this lovely Q+A! Still figuring out how to work Litsy, so this answering method may be clumsy.

1. 19
2. I have four brothers
3. Nope!
4. I just started If On A Winter's Night A Traveler
5. I usually say Howl because I loved it so much when I was younger. But now I'm not so sure.
6. 😃
7. Scintillating
8. I love me some expletives
9. Cat lover. Nothing against dogs, though.
10. Hot chocolate
11. Dazed and Confused

I'm confused! I realized I was no longer following several people that I'm sure I did follow when I first signed up. 🙁 I'm working to re-follow everyone now. Sorry, I have no idea what happened. I'll blame cat paws on my screen (however improbable it sounds...)

Chelleo That‘s very odd! Hope you get things back in order! Sometimes tech sucks. 7y
mabell I've noticed that has happened to me too. 7y

🤷‍♀️😂... This is the nearest highway exit to my home, it‘s been perplexed for at least as long as I‘ve lived here(3 1/2 years)

I don't know what to do! My #SecretSantaGoesPostal is not super active on here and I'm having a terrible time trying to pick things I think they will like!

TamarackTrail Well in that case, you may want to just pick some of your favorite books. I had a secret Santa that have me some of things they really loved and I really appreciated insight into some new reading. 7y
shendrix413 @TamarackTrail That's a good idea! From the bit that's been posted in the past we seem to have similar tastes, so I guess I'll just cross my fingers and hope for the best! 7y
jpmcwisemorgan My match isn‘t either so I‘ve selected books from their TBR. I also chose a couple that I‘ve read and liked that, based on what they‘ve liked, they will probably enjoy. I‘m sending some other small items and I just picked things that most people seem to like getting. A lot of people on Litsy like getting recs outside of what they normally read too. 7y

CocoReads I hope it‘s not me! Lol I haven‘t been as active as normal lately but I will say, I love anything anyone wants to get for me and I think most people do too. 7y
mrozzz Same! I did what @jpmcwisemorgan did and just picked a bunch from their TBR and a few bookish things. 7y
Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks I‘ve had this same problem in the past!! I hope it‘s not me too! I‘m super active and and mostly just add books to my tbr list! 📚 7y
shendrix413 My match hasn't been active in a couple of weeks! Yea, I'll just go with the Tbr 7y
MatchlessMarie Maybe I‘m just a creep but if I need more clues I try to find them on GR and other social media if they didn‘t mention it in the email 😆 7y
shendrix413 @MatchlessMarie Hahaha, I looked to see if they had GR and could find it! Nope not a creep, perfectly healthy normal secret Santa stalking 😂 7y

Oh Littens. I am in destress. It seems like every book I start, I end up abandoning - not because it's a bad book, but because I start to think maybe it's not what I want to read that day. The requirements seem to change every day. Is there anything that you read that grabbed you from the very beginning? Does anyone else ever have this problem or am I hopeless?

DeborahSmall I always re read a favourite, usually Harry Potter and it gets me back into the swing of things! 8y

Ok, I need some advice. I am horrified by this election and talking about it makes me angry and agitated. So I purposefully avoided the topic at a long day of work. When I got home, I tried to talk to my BF (also an HC supporter) about it all, started to get agitated, and he shut me down. He doesn't understand my anger and won't let me talk about it (he's otherwise lovely). What do I do? I need to be able to get this out somewhere!

8little_paws Twitter? 8y
Shemac77 Talk here. I can't imagine the frustration you all must be feeling. I'm heartsick for all of America. We are all going to have to come together and protect the ones that will suffer the most from this horrific result. Stand up. Have a voice. I saw a map of what the young person vote was and it was almost all blue. The future is bright. Hugs to you. 8y
[DELETED] 3323341091 i agree with @Shemac77 , talk with us. we are all here for one another. 8y

Bette Whatever you decide, talk it out, don't keep it in. 💙💙💙 8y
saguarosally Since the good advice has been presented, I'll say be thankful the BF isn't a Trump supporter. The discussion would be much more difficult. 8y
Trav Talk here if you need to, we are all here to listen and support each other ❤️ 8y
Hooked_on_books @Shemac77 @fern @Bette @saguarosally @Trav Thank you all for your words. I did find a good friend to chat with who reminded me that no one can give us 100% of what we need, which is sage advice. And Litsy has definitely been a great help today when I've actually had a chance to be on here! 8y
BookishFeminist My door is always open if you want to talk. Anger, sadness, chatting, anything. Always. Contact info in my bio if you want to DM and I'm also happy to give my phone # or email if you want. It's a common trend I'm noticing with men not understanding why this election's results are so literally gut wrenching for women, POC, LGBT, etc. It's worth having a convo with him about male privilege at some point but prob not yet. Until then, take care. 💖💖 8y
I-read-and-eat I have the same thing with my BF, I just get more wound up by these things then he does. That's because for one, I am a woman and feel an unfairnes that he doesn't. But also because it makes him sad to to think about it too much and become so angry. He wants to fix it, often for me, but he can't. So when I get angry about these things it upsets him as there is nothing he can do for me. So he wants me to stop taking about it. And so I do. 8y
I-read-and-eat It's good to talk about it with someone, a friend or here on Litsy (my door is always open) and you should talk to him too. But also consider that he might have shut you down to protect himself, and that's ok too. He can also deal with these things how he seems fit. 8y
CoffeeAndABook I think the above advice & support is wise & hardly needs adding to - maybe to say that it's such a good choice to reach out further when your needs aren't met. I'm impressed with the warmth that is spreading through Litsy right now. I feel so much of the pain & confusion myself (today in a new raw quality) & it helps to see how many of us share that & to hear the strengthening thoughts some of us have. Thanks to all you Littens for your open ❤️ 8y
Suet624 Just a reminder - we all may need to consider finding a therapist to help us over the next four years. 8y
Kathrin I think everyone copes differently with this and you just need to find a person you can vent to and who vents to you. 8y
Notafraidofwords I agree with you. I feel so much pain. I see people moving along their life and I feel like I can't. I feel stuck in a bad nightmare. 8y
Karkar I agree with @Suet624 sometimes the best thing to do is talk to a therapist. 8y
Hooked_on_books @BookishFeminist @CoffeeAndABook @Suet624 @Kathrin @Notafraidofwords @Karkar Thank you all for all your words. I know for sure I'm not alone in my feelings and it helps to hear from you all. 8y
Hooked_on_books @I-read-and-eat Thank you so much for your comments. They are so helpful to me since our experiences sound similar. I'm trying to understand his response a bit better and you're definitely helping me to do so. I appreciate that. 8y
I-read-and-eat @Hooked_on_books Glad I could help! If you ever need to talk just give me a shout! 8y
