Well... what's up??

[dementedblonde]

 Happy New Years to y'all. What's new with everyone? Here ... not so much, finally getting Orion (my Gateway?) tomorrow.  Can't wait. It seems as if everyone is leaving LJ in droves yet again. Wonder what's happening 🤔? Is it bc of that worm Putin??? I rarely watch the news as it gets depressing  ... not for positive little me. 

I am watching a lot of horror movies of late.  I've seen that new Godzilla movie but wasn't too impressed... it was a fun little movie though.

As for gaming, I switched my 3ds memory card with Bees' bc I wanted her to have games to lay. Her card is fucked up... needs to be formatted... will do that tomorrow sometime. I am used to jailbreaking my 3ds, it's no sweat getting the games back. 

G is being a bossy little bitch. I'm thisclose to flat out decking her one. She really angers me 😠 😡 👿 😤 

Eh.. she'll get hers one day. 

Other than that life is good. I went to bed at 8pm  woke up to firecrackers at 12:45am. Couldn't get back to sleep after that. Stayed up til 4am-5am and just listened to music, went on FB, continued working on Bees' console.. no sleep though 😴 

I think that I have another go at sleep...wish me luck.

Yeah, I imagine it's the Russkies having to do with the exodus from LiveJournal. It used to be really popular among furries, but 99.99% seem to have abandoned it, and this was well before the Russia/Ukraine War. I don't mind, since they seemed to really ruined the platform, anyway, which they would also do with Twitter, given all the horrible shit I've seen on that site, especially among furs.

X is just a cesspool, sadly 😥

[theradicalchild]

I agree. I do have a secret account there only to keep in contact with an artist I commissioned before I deactivated my old account back in May (due to it being somewhat instrumental in me losing my last full-time job), and while she's an awesome artist, she has really horrible customer service and hasn't provided me any updates or progress at all on my piece, despite her false promises.

[dementedblonde]

Get on her tail. I don't go on X. I have no time for Elon Musk.

[theradicalchild]

I sent her a note a few days ago. If she doesn't respond in a timely fashion, I would definitely be tempted to go on the Artists Beware website and post about her, but I don't have the communication from before I disabled my original Twitter account. I could definitely show screencaps of her false promises like "Your image will be done soon," and "I have a sketch done to show you soon," though.

[dementedblonde]

Exactly. If she owes you art and doesn't deliver, then, why not??

Happy New Year, Sammy.

I was going to see Godzilla in due course but I guess there's no hurry.

Talking of games my son Rob is loaning me his Steam Deck as I was quite taken with it - it was the cat game that did it, lol.

Good luck with the sleep!

[dementedblonde]

Godzilla is an ok film. I mean, it was an ok movie. There is a cat game??? :o Nice!!!

[dementedblonde]

I just said the same thing twice sorry Hols!

[cmcmck]

It was the Russians that started the exodus back when I left and they're still at the same tricks!

[dementedblonde]

Idiots all of them!!!

[disneydream06]

Happy New Year.......

I prefer the old cheesy original Godzilla movies. :)

I wonder if people are leaving LJ because of the hassle about not being able to make payments and losing paid status? They extended mine for a year, but will they keep doing that?

I got to bed late today because I wanted to watch the Rose Parade.
Sadly the coverage I was able to see sucked. :(
Hugs, Jon

[dementedblonde]

Aww.. that's ok. :) I am sure you can see it on YT??

[disneydream06]

I did find it on youtube last night. Now to find the time to watch it. LOL......

[dementedblonde]

Well thank God, you can save it. :) Watch it later!!

[disneydream06]

I watched the first few minutes and the commentators are so much better then the ones on Pluto. :)

[dementedblonde]

That is good news!!!

[disneydream06]

YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Watched just over a half hour of it so far. :)

[theradicalchild]

I myself had lost the ability to pay for renewing premium LJ, and I didn't want to pay for two private blogs, so I just let my paid account expire there, and I'm content with using basic on LJ. Dreamwidth definitely seems a lot more user-friendly and aesthetically pleasing.

[dementedblonde]

Very true. :)

[disneydream06]

Because of the war I wasn't able to pay my account last year and they extended it for another year.
Not sure they will keep doing that though. :o

[stormehowl]

I miss the Livejournal days. I've had this dreamwidth account a little while but mostly used it for posting privately. I've been making more of an effort to post access list and rekindle the LJ spirit. I've added you if you don't mind. I miss the days of having an assortment of interesting people on a reading list. Happy New Year!

[dementedblonde]

I had a Deadjournal wayyyyyyyyyyyyy before LJ. LOL... Um. Added. :D :D Nice to meet you. I'm Sammy.

[stormehowl]

I had a deadjournal too! Wow, memory unlocked! I maybe posted on it three times though. I'm Julia by the way!

[dementedblonde]

I know eh?? I am pleased as punch to meet you Julia. :)
