Public-ish announcement: Regarding LJ, GJ, IJ, la la la

[first_seventhe]

Right!

First and foremost, I'm not planning on leaving LJ. I'm way too much of a community whore to do so; I love you guys, I love the community aspect, I love the newsletter, and I am much too lazy to go do this again on another site just because. I'll only move if everyone else moves (or if LJ does something even more ridiculously stupid

HOORAY NEW FRIEND. XD

[venefica_aura]

Friended on IJ (which is my backup of my personal journal and is ugly and I don't care if it's ugly) and GJ (which is all fic. Eventually I am getting my own damn website). Same name as on here.

And that's really what got me. Was the sort of buried rules and general we are a big corporation that owns your soul attitude. I kind of just decided to say, "hell no, you do not own my soul, and fuck you."

I also know that very few people are going to do more than bitch about it. I kind of did the same thing with DeviantArt (that and my camera broke). Sadly, I moved over to here. XD But I have Picasa now (as it is a fact that Google DOES own my soul and I gladly give it to them, I like their business practices).

Though, I'm probably going to keep up here a little just to write my daily To Do List. I'm a sick sad person like that. I can't wait until my paid time runs out, then I can feel better about myself.

Yes, 'fuck the system' is written into my family's genetic code. I have no idea why, it just is.I am attempting very hard to not be

I think I want the journal where I can communicate with the most people, really. If that ends up being here, that's cool. If it's elsewhere, that's cool too.

For my personal writing - well, yeah, I'll be a little more careful, definitely. Must be better at backing stuff up. XD

Also, I would give Google part of my soul for $20. Easily.

Well, that and I realized that several people on my f-list (not you obviously) I just didn't care what they said anymore? Or what they thought about my shit? XD

I partially feel like a brat, but then, I kind of feel liberated from some expectations. I am such a sucker for expectations.

I also totally can do all my LJ functions with gmail now, even read the entries (unless you f-lock, so I'll periodically check for that) so this perpetuates my belief that Google is the new God.

The "F-List" has such a wanky connotation. I mean, I friend back anyone who friends me, but I have a lot of selective filters because, like, who wants to deal with all that? Plus, GOD FORBID you de-friend ANYONE. I understand. XD

Wait. What. How.

[first_seventhe]

I'm so happy to have snagged "seventhe" before anyone else. As you can see, I was late to LJ and MISSED MY OWN ONLINE HANDLE. BOO.

[first_seventhe]

Hahaha. Me neither; at least not until I have to.

[heyheyrenay]

Dude, everyone was all quiet about this and now everyone's posting...what did I miss?

[first_seventhe]

Oh, I missed the whole thing, because I suck at getting on the internets on the weekend.

Also I was happy at finally being "seventhe".
