Filter subscription entry
And, lo, here we have the Subscribe to Filters poll.
I tend to post a lot of things locked and filtered. Some security decisions I make myself, but most of my filters are content filters. The divisions are as follows:
Daily Life: Highest traffic. This is a bit of a catch-all. It gets entries about the house, the weather, the cats, the latest go-rounds with my doctors, triumphs or anguish related to designing or programming or layouts, etc.
Teaching: Very low traffic. I switched career tracks in 2015, so this now has mostly training-related stuff. Technical details like memorable posts, assignments that really worked, notes on potential curricula go in here.
Design: Low traffic. Details of course design and articles I want to keep track of go here. Also, technical details of site design and programming, useful software, cursing at predecessors, CSS tricks.
Esoteric: Vanishingly low traffic. I rarely write about my own spiritual leanings, but when I do it goes in here. Note: my own leanings are split between pagan and atheist.
Self-stuff: Very low traffic. This is where I document the inside of my own head. It tends to be moderately incomprehensible unless you know the vocabulary.
Explosions: Very low traffic. Past experience suggests that it is cathartic to some people to watch me go off like a fireworks factory over things and people who have truly raised my ire. This generally relates to fandom or to work.
Fandom: Fandom and political posts are largely unfiltered; as long as you have my journal subscribed you get those.
Please mark below any and all filters you would like to subscribe to. I assure you I will not feel in any way upset or slighted if you only want one or two of these, or even none, and I will make sure you are not in any filter you leave unchecked.

I clicked the tickyboxes for everything, partially because I'm interested in everything, and partially because, seriously. Tickyboxes.
no subject
(*intones very seriously* The power of the tickyboxes compels you.)
no subject
(I went ahead and added access back on my own journal, mostly because I am notoriously inconsistent on what actually gets locked. Your filter organization makes me vaguely jealous. *g*)
