What's up with the ★? On some of jessamyn's posts, I'm seeing it say "jessamyn ★" as the author. It seems to be limited to metatalk, but cortex nor matthowie have one. The wiki isn't helpful, but does mention stars. Google acts like it's been there forever, but I don't remember seeing it. Is this some sleep deprivation induced hallucination I'm having, or does someone know whats up with the star?

About those stars some people get... pointless tiny little request, but could those be given a transparent canvas so they show up nicey nice across themes? Currently when viewing with the white background they show up as a star-in-a-block. Or you could even render them as Unicode entities so they could be given the ol' CSS one-two punch and you wouldn't have to get clever with graphics.

MeFi Music favourites/add

At MeFiMusic, adding individual songs from other users' playlists to ones' own, or otherwise favoriting tracks looks time consuming. How about 2.0/itunes/etc style 'starring' beside the trackname to add a filter-layer for favourite/playlisting?

A fight breaks out in this thread on the evolution of blood salinity because two people agree on the meaning of a word. Meet in here for post-post analysis, connotative denotating, preventative etiquette, homeopathic semiotics, other bullshit, brandy and cigars.
