delete yr blog

After years of people telling me to do it, I deleted my LJ.

Feel sad about it, but it was a security problem (my account got hacked several times) and increasingly a pain to cross-post. There's a bare minimum of folks there who don't post here, and so I ended up just having to scroll through it every morning for the one or two entries that I might want to see. And let's be honest, even if I never go back to Eastern Europe, I just don't want Putin's goons knowing that much about my life.

It feels weird. LJ was my primary internet home for so long, and it was there I met most of the folks who would be most influential on my life and the way I think. I had a super nostalgic discussion about it on FB last night and apparently I influenced a lot of people too.

But you know. I'm still here. In case you need your Sabotabby Ranting About Politics, Etc. fix. I have many things to say about how FB and Twitter have destroyed the internet, so I'm not going to give up old school blogging any time soon.

Are you crossposting, or keeping them separate? I made a reading filter on LJ for folks not on DW, but there are hardly any new posts.

I'm generally crossposting, although the post I made yesterday refused to crosspost.

Never mind.
