Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

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.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

Nothing-ma for msbelle. Also, poquito! Tons of -ma for LA and LA folks.

Punishingly Intricate

You’re all in my heart and in my mind. Especially the LA folks.

I adore all you motherfuckers so much -- PMM.

Lots of love and hugs and support and ~ma for anyone who needs it. See the tagline.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

I used to think 'boring' was awful, but maturity has shown me that boring can be a good thing. Thus I am wishing you all a boring day, and to msbelle especially, a boring result.

The status is NOT quo.

I would do anything for a boring day right now.

I’ve transferred my books and reading info from Goodreads to Storygraph who else is over there? I get a lot of recs from seeing what others read.

Always Anti-fascist!

Karl! I don't know why I'm just seeing you now, babe, but better late than never.
