So LiveJournal is cleaning out their junk drawer. Totally acceptable.

But at the same time, the tone of their email brought back that same panicky freaky-out feeling from when I was a kid, like when my mother threw out a shirt I always hated from like seven years ago but it was mine and mom why were you in my room, omigod!?

And then I got over it.

I don’t want a LiveJournal. I never did.

Does anyone, now, really? The Hater: Livejournal – Do Not Rescuscitate?

As always, this makes me half-defensive on behalf of LJ, half-torn with sadness. LJ is still a huge and important piece of fandom culture for so many of us. But it’s not the same and it never will be again. Heart breaking. blackheartxbiohazards
