welcome home

Well, that was brief. Google+ was totally perfect... except for the bullshit "real name" campaign that left out the marginalized and blocked identity experimentation. Fuck that. Shabby and broken as it is, I guess this is home again. I hate feeling dispossessed. Anyways, if you're just adding me from Google+, please comment. I enjoyed meeting lots of cool people there, I hope we can stay friends in venues without such asinine problems.

Edit: If you're interested, there is a pretty good discussion about this on G+. I am genuinely sad to see it go, because I had a lot of good discussions there. Sigh. "Ignominious uselessness" indeed. https://plus.google.com/103312810027078945406?tab=h#103312810027078945406/posts/Dc9MtB3Wc84

Yes, very disappointing. Especially since I am connected with a lot fewer folks here on LJ than through email. I have seen you around for years, but never added you before. I sent a private message with my real name.

I enjoyed connecting with you on G+, so I'm glad you found your way here. At least the advantage of LJ is that it was my internet home for a very long time, and I have a lot of history here.

Yes, I have been here since 2004, at least. Lately it has been too quiet in here, but I think I just need to connect with pockets of LJ survivors so we can make it to the Lambda Comple--

Um. I guess we could just hang out.
