I've really got to learn to just do the damage and get out of town. It's the 'stay and gloat' that gets me every time.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

Nothing~ma for msbelle and for everyone in LA not already impacted. I can’t even imagine the grief and trauma and loss you all are going through.

Always Anti-fascist!

I agree, brenda and Hecubus. msbelle, all kinds of -ma. (Mostly, they're not.)

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

Hopping back in to say hi, since I saw folks at ita's remembrance, and the Facebook thing. I find Facebook way easier to use on my phone than here, but I want to stay in touch.

I agree, brenda and Hecubus. msbelle, all kinds of -ma.

Yes. I had that happen and it was terrifying, but mine was immediate. I can't imagine waiting.

The problem is that I find bsky more Classic Twitter than Fbook -- I want to be able to read longer posts, enjoy pictures, get part of groups and so on.

Yes! I could not twitter. I actually like Discord, but I am mostly on one run by the old TWOP people, so I think there is less chaos. Everyone sort of still follows the old rules (except me, because I am off-topic bunny). You also have to be a patreon supporter of the podcast. I see Jesse over there.

My other big podcast is Crime Writers On (Hi Nanita who has appeared on the bonus book club podcast) and they have a great Facebook group that I do not want to give up.

Nothing really ever satisfied me since Livejournal died, though. Facebook and Discord are the best, but I just miss Livejournal.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

Thanks everyone.

I’ve decided I need an incognito bluesky since there are no filters there and I work in HR for local government. Ranty and political posts will be under my second account “the nicest” pocquito is my user pic so if you are over there you should recognize it. I also put Buffistas in my profile at least for now.

I agree, Sophia -- I miss lj most of all. And that was when I was most actively fannish, so it's nostalgia, too. I really loved that format, though.
