You might have succeeded in changing me / I might have been turned around

This a way of warning us that this will be the last cross-posted post?

[azurelunatic]

I can't promise no more crossposts ever, but it is substantially less likely from here on out.

[wibbble]

:o(

I have followed the RSS feed account. Poor LJ.

[azurelunatic]

I stopped cross-posting by default a while ago, and each bit of LJ hilarity since then has reduced the number of things that I've crossposted. It's sad. They did hang on longer than forecast, though! I had guessed this past March or April for when LJ would no longer be recognizable as the place we knew.

[wibbble]

I guess everything changes. They've built houses on the land where the high-rise flat I grew up in was, and closed down my old high school. (And merged it with a new one on the site of our formal rivals!)

Much like the changes to LJ, those things would be really disconcerting if I ever went back to Gourock. I might have my friends page tab open in Safari, but I'm not really 'from' LJ any more - much like Gourock, it's no longer home.

DW is home now to me. I've settled in.

I miss Alaska a lot, but I don't know if I could live there again.

*offers you hugs* =/

Thanks.

It's just, argh.

*hugs, if you'd like* it's immensely frustrating and feels personal to me, as I just yelled on capslock_dw, but it's deeply, DEEPLY personal to you. D:

Huh, looks like LJ's RSS feed checker stalled before Christmas.

Not that you can do anything about it, of course. :o/

[azurelunatic]

Ahh, fun for the whole family.

Yeah, I wouldn't rely on LJ syndication for anything timely - best to use a real RSS reader. (Especially what with ephemeral comments on syndicated posts.)

[wibbble]

Good point, although adding a 'LiveJournal' person to my RSS feeds seems... I dunno, really weird.
