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*

I'm just really wondering about things--wondering where to post, whether to crosspost or not--and it's just going round and round in my logic filter, honestly. I have no idea what to do. Part of me is really squicked by crossposting, but I know that there are people on IJ now who are completely avoiding LJ...ugh.

I felt it in my bones when HBP came out...the Golden Age was coming to an end, and soon. I think fandom has been irrevocably changed by this, some for the better, some for the worse, and I'm just going to cling to the friendships and hope for the best.

I really do hope that they're not going to put the smackdown on, though. That would really mess us up big time!
