Yay! Hello again :)

[galadhir]

Thanks, everyone, for reconnecting with me over here :) I strongly suggest using this as an opportunity to get rid of my Potboy account over here which has become nothing more than Tumblr spam. I literally don't even remember the name of the program I used to mirror my Tumblr to here, and without that I can't google for how to shut it down.

Someone mentioned, last night, that Livejournal was still around, so I went back to see what had become of it and was overwhelmed with nostalgia for a more innocent time.

Initially I was like 'why don't I just go back to LJ? I liked it there!' So I made a new LJ, but the moment I started uploading icons, I realized I was wondering if it was safe to upload icons with the queer flags, and that reminded me why I'd left in the first place.

So I thought I'd come here and see if I could get back into the habit of more longform posting again. Social media is becoming a nightmare corporate environment where everyone's outraged all the time. It seemed like a good idea to return to something (a) made by fans and (b) much lower pressure. It's extremely encouraging to know that you're all active enough here to have at least noticed the notification that I'd subscribed to you in this new form.

*Hugs*

Hello! Glad you made it over here. I checked your intro to potboy and wonder whether it's possible we crossed paths back in your TPM days; I was at Yahoo Groups too, reading TPM fic like mad, though I mostly posted at multifandom lists.

Oh! I saw your DW when clicking on my interests and thought "that name rings a bell." Which was why I followed you out of the blue :) Was it all the way back at TPM that we knew each other? How fantastic! That was a good time :)
Thanks for the follow back or whatever they're calling it these days :)
