ouf. i just ploughed through the huge argument that took place last week on theoc_slash. it really upset me actually, i think because LJ and that comm have always kinda been a bit of a sanctuary for me, where i can go to escape. theres no fighting in a sanctuary people! anyway, i really hope there are no residual consequences (theres tautology at ( Read more... )
