Whoa, livejournal. Whoa. What's this crazy new look? Beside ugly, I mean. Ugly and terrible, you say? Yes. I agree ( Read more... )

Lovely to se you! I've got used to the new look LJ and quite like it now. The good feature is the "up" arrow on the right-hand side, and the fact it tells you if something new has been added at the top after you started reading down.

Tumblr? I just can't work it out. Man, that makes me feel ancient - it's what grandmas are supposed to say! Maybe it's because I look at it like LJ and expect it all to be in chronological order, newest on top, so that I'll be able to find the point where I last read up to. I never do! I know I'm missing things, and I can't make sense of what I do see (can't really get to grips with the expanding comment layers). So I gave up on it until someone can give me the key to unlock its complexities.

I suspect it's too ADD for me - I like longer, more considered, as opposed to quick! flash a little bit of stuff and move on fast!

aaaand I have just reached the LJ News item which tells me that there's a new home page so maybe that's what you meant? I followed the link and read about a lot of features I'll never use, and then red some of the hows of outrage so am not going to even look at the new version - because if you do you can't go back apparently!

The front page - yes. Although, to be fair, I spend approximately 1.5 seconds on the home page for every twenty minutes of livejournaling I do, so it's not a huge deal on my end.

I just can't work it out. Man, that makes me feel ancient - it's what grandmas are supposed to say!

Hah! I'm not far ahead of you. I use it, but oh man, I am not good at it. Nor am I that interested in getting good, really. I'm just there for the gifs/pictures.

Well, good! I'm glad to not be alone in this weird summer-storm of XMFC!

Hi hi hi. I've been so busy tired I didn't even notice the new design. I'll probably stay too tired and sad-busy to care. Most importantly, it's good to see you around. You're fun and interesting and I miss your writing.

Tumblr can be strange, but since I have zero expectations of interacting with people there I'm good. I have two accounts: secretagentofcaos for my pics and selfconsciousfangirl for reblogging and such.

I love Hannibal, even though I keep falling asleep while watching it. Nothing personal, I fall asleep all over the place. I can't wait for the season to be over on my tv so I can do a proper rewatch. I don't know anything about the fandom on lj lands, but I can ask around.

I've more or less given up on writing for the time being, with the whole needing to be awake to write thing - it keeps getting in that way of my marvelous WIPs. And they're lovely. I wish I could read them already.

If only I'd won the lottery last week.

You too! I need to start settling alarms or something so I update. And a constant blaring siren for writing.

Both tumblies are followed!

I need you to write! (of course, when you're awake and able)
