I am catching up on the LJ flist, and I'm getting sadder and sadder.

I knew already that the HP fandom would be endangered by the end of the series, but now it's fragmented as well, and I'm really having trouble wrapping my head around having multiple journals. I'm a control freak, as you all know, and I hate the idea of cross-posting, but I also hate the idea of not cross-posting, and I hate the idea of having one main journal, and I hate the idea of having journal-specific entries, and I just feel like I'm watching my internet journaling experience take a nose dive.

Also, I find the idea that HP's parent corporations are going to put the smackdown on slash very chilling. (I can't remember where I read the entry now, damnit.)

*glooms about*

ETA: Oh, and this bit about everyone defriending LJ people so they don't have to read multiple entries? Understandable, but... *glooms even more*

Wow, when you sum up the last few months so accurately, it really is kind of depressing.

Hence the emo!valis! *laughs*

I started crossposting but the truth is that if I post during the day from work it's just too much effort to post three individual times. And 99% of my list is still on LJ, so now I kind of feel like the people on IJ are getting short attention from me since I don't check it as much and I don't post there as much. So, I dunno. I think I might actually go ahead and stop posting elsewhere and just use those journals for commenting.

I'm still trying to decide on a strategy. And just having to use the word "strategy" about my commenting/posting is making me mental! This shouldn't have to be a logic puzzle! Wah! Wah! Emo!

It looks like a missed a bunch of polls about "Where are you going to duck under a rock," but still, I have no idea how to respond to them, damnit. I have no idea which one will be my "main" journal and which ones will be my "slave" journals, to bow to my every wish--oops, I mean comment. So that's still a mystery.

But I have a permanent account here. I keep thinking that. And so many of my friends are LJ only and will remain so; they're not part of fandom and have no idea of the OMGWOECENSORSHIP problems.

But you're back! And you're so sane! *clings*

*clings back* Though I think you might be mistaken about the level of my sanity--I must say, I am overjoyed to be home, though I'm already going through the "WILL THIS CLEANING NEVER END BLERGH OKAY I'M GOING BACK OUT ON THE ROAD TO AVOID THE DUST" phase.

*huggles*
