So some jernalz wer baleeted cuz they had bad words in their interests. Oops, some of them were support groups. Oops, some of them were kiddingz. Oops, some of them were fandom related. So then oops someone made a really crazy post on a news website and then the LJ fandom reacted. Then were was some exodus to other jernall sites. Really, I don't care that much. Guess I'm like that. Meh. ._.
but I have an ingrown toenail and it hurts like an angry rottweiler. Don't you love feeling your pulse in your toe? Yeah. Metoo2.
But I am now an epik durid. I can fly uborz fast. Yeah, we took out Anzu the Raven God in Heroic Sethekk Halls and now I have uber flight form aka Class Destroyer! w00t. We got the guild leader to help us. I've always joked with him that he doesn't like me. Cuz he's a warrior and I'm a drood. Also when I first joined the guild, he was in an instance so he invited me, but didn't promote me to member. The initiate rank doesn't allow you to talk in guild. And he didn't promote me, an officer did. So I joked that he didn't like me. He's a nice guy though. I really do like him.
I'm eating some KFC tomorrow. Mmmmm for fulfilling cravings before back onto the diet.

ETA So here's the official LJ word cuz some people don't have ljnews friended. People such as myself before the infamous... Deletegate as it has lamely beeen referred.
Previous to this incident, I simply got all of my LJ news from the Flist, usually from the ol' Artist Formerly Known as Halogirl8, but whose name was changed to protect the innocent. Well actually because she got tired of the ol' video game references and likes Johy Mayer muchly.
I'm going astray with my ETA here! N E way! Here's the short version of what went down, which I found while perusing her flist for answers. Seriously I think she has at least half of LJ friended. ;D It does use naughty language which I do not I do support so do not baleete my jernal plz, kthxbai http://www.metafilter.com/61636/livejournal-suspends-hundreds-of-accounts#1712054

Date: 2007-05-31 10:49 am (UTC)But it's just not true. I've never once said to you "Froggy, you aren't a boy so stop trying to be one." Or that "God loves you so you should go back to your family because they know what is right." I've tried, poorly I admit, convulutedly yes, to explain how I feel and how I grew up and how I've changed.
Freedom of speech is fine. But so far, what I've read of the situation is that LJ banned journals that had pedophilia and child rape as interests. It was reactionary (their words) and ill planned. And they deleted support groups. But I'm not sure how freedom of speech applies. I'm not really supportive of people having the freedom to talk about raping children because they think it's cool. So I'm not sad to see those journals deleted. And yeah, it sucks that LJ handled the situation the way they did. But I know that they will fix it.
I'm not religious. Maybe I come across that way in some of my entries. It can't be helped. Just as you come across as angry and hurtful in some of yours. And it's not how you mean to be. Unless you say as much in your entry. I've read those ones too. I think religions are destructive. I believe I even said as much in my last comment to you. That I grew up religious and it made me silly. I thought I had to be perfect. I was just trying to follow the rules of the religion. Trying to do everything perfectly so that I could be the perfect little zealot who believed everything I was told and obeyed without question.
But then I found out the truth. And the truth says to question the truth. Put it to the test. Then, if it survives the test, it is the truth. So when I read that LJ deleted some communities, I try to find out what happened.
My ability to care about being censored and having my freedom of speech and action had nothing to do with it really. Firstly, I had more important things to do today than try to figure out what was going on with the community I use to post my online diary entries. Secondly, when I log back on later, much much later, I read that it was all a bit of a misunderstanding and poorly planned resolutions. And that all entries of the deleted communities are still archived and will be restored. So this leads me to say "Hmmm, I don't suppose I care too much about what happened." I'll give it a few days. See what happens. Maybe it will be worth taking action later. I doubt I will post any banners or other such in my journal though. Mostly because I don't post much anyway and I'm more likely to just stop posting altogether than to use the site again.
