rebness... The less said on the whole LJ downtime, the better. I don't blame LJ, nor will I migrate to Dreamwidth (though I will definitely back up this journal). I hope that the site goes from strength to strength and that the Russian bloggers continue to have a platform for their views. Asshat bloody authorities.
For those who do want to help (and for those of us whose most pressing matter is finding some fanfic, not trying to take on a corrupt government) here's an excellent post by Cesare on how to help if you want to support LJ and the Russian bloggers. I promise to stop refreshing the page continually in future. :p
For all LJ's faults (and there are rather a few), I really do love the site. I love the sense of community, I love that when they do mess up, we at least get some drama/feedback from the owners instead of the blank, sinister ways of Facebook and I love it for serving all my fannish and nerdish needs. Long may it continue.
Anyway! I was just writing up a capslock post for the VC_Media community on the Grand National horse race. I mentioned this to![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
mothergoddamn and her reply cracked me up. Had to share:
When I was little the horse I bet on broke its neck and I mourned it and wrote it a poem and sat drawing it and became obsessed with its trainer and used to address my diary to it like Anne Frank to Kitty.
I allow this woman into my house, flist. My house.
