The visible page is a collage: fragments of numbered notes, website changes, Ben-Hur, Eric Schmidt, Apple design theft, American Gods, Principal Sanders, and Ali Sabry being removed as a friend suggestion. The through-line is still the same: shaping the site while deciding who deserves access.

Removing Ali Sabry From Facebook While Keeping Professional Boundaries

11. I removed Ali Sabry as a friend suggestion

I only want to be friends with people who are like me

I do not believe it is a good idea or acceptable to be friends with people who do not keep their word or respond

I guess, professionally I will be cool

But this is Facebook, it is not LinkedIn, it is personal and not for business

I guess, I trust my friends as business partners with my life and living

But that is only fair.

You cannot do business on LinkedIn

You can find a job on LinkedIn maybe, but to get hired is a different story

On Facebook, you find good people you can trust with your business

Being betrayed is the biggest risk in business

I do not have any expectations from Ali Sabry

He is Navin Marapana and Thilanga uncle's friend

I am not a good material for Sri Lanka, i am more culturally attuned to the US

I will not be a good match as a friend to him, although, I can help any way possible as long as Thilanga uncle is involved, clear communication and healthy boundaries which include staying off my Facebook

If I was married to her, and I was doing a tv interview, and she started yapping about me --

Praising Ostara’s Unveiling in American Gods

You are so dazzling beautiful: I did not recognize you in American Gods --- kindly do a season 4 and please, sing for us!

It was my favourite scene: the unveiling of Odin, the striking down of the bad guys with thunder lightning strike and it will be with me for ever and ever.

I inadvertently shared it with my friends many years ago, not realising you could shape shift into Ostara.

Pray for me oh Goddess Ostara!
