Yes, Livejournal has been deleting communities and accounts.

liviapenn - Check your interests; we are being targeted. This is very informative and provides an overarching picture of what's going on.

I have gone through several hours of paranoia (I blame hormones, I friend-locked my whole el-jay, only to unlock it when the crazy left) but have gotten well over it. I'm not blaming Livejournal, I really can't when it is hammered into me on a regular basis that legal entities must avoid lawsuits at all costs. No matter how much Livejournal wants to paint themselves as friendly and open, and all about freedom of speech, they are a business; profit is the most important factor, and they cannot afford any form of bad media attention.

Honestly, the whole issue is really rather simple (on a personal el-jay level) - be smart about what you post, use common sense, and REMOVE all interests that can get you into deep shit. In fact, remove ALL of your interests. The only thing on my interest at the moment is - freedom of speech.

Irony amuses me.

ETA: A petition to Six Apart - hit them were it is important (MONEY).
- Organizing a push back
- "a petition of paid livejournal users (buying customers) who would cancel their accounts if Six Apart didn't approach this issue with more sensitivity".

Fandom is being all sorts of awesome lately.

Lately I have been kind of a drag with all the serious and the gloom. So, I decided to make a list of things that I love and makes me happy.

I love fandom. We are like one big dysfunctional family - there are the cousins you no longer speak to, the aunt and uncle that you whisper about, the sibling you had that 2am kitchen fight with when appliances were thrown and feelings were hurt. But at the end of the day you are still stuck with each other because you are a family, and while you can call them names anyone else who hurts their feelings will be hunted down by the Family.

I love pork.

I love beer.

I would love to try beer-battered chips. It is a life goal.

I love my parents.

I love my shows; Supernatural is my biggest obsession ever.

I love my boyfiend.

I love pasta, noodles, udon, and spaghetti, oh gods I love my mum's spaghetti sauce.

I love sex.

I love nacho sauce and sour cream. The nachos not so much.

Oh, and babies, I love BABIES! I want to breed so badly.

Today, two kittens walked up to our screen door, looked at me, pawed at the door and then began sniffing their balls. It was adorable. Mum thinks I'm clinically insane, but she's a cold hearted woman who kicks small animals, so I'm ignoring her about that one.

So, in short, I LOVE my life!

ETA: Oh, and I love coffee!
