valis2I 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*

The editor in me wants to clean up my journal.
Oh, believe me, I've had the same impulse. I went back and deleted a lot of early meme entries at one point, and added subject lines, too.
I'm not really in the fandom anymore because I just don't have time for it
Yeah, I get that, honestly. I'm starting to feel like I'm moving away from it too. This last book felt so final. *laughs at self*
What's this about slash coming under fire? I hadn't heard about that, probably because I'm so out of the loop. That seems extreme, to say the least, and I wrote het. But the way I see it, you can't target one without targeting both. That's not on.
It was in a Scottish newspaper, nestled in some article about China and stuff. I don't know how true it is, but if they do--wow, that will really end it for a lot of fans!
