kaffy_r Because Really .. WTF?
1. My brother will have having quintuple bypass surgery Monday, Tuesday, or Wednesday. I'm still painfully in the dark by my lights - although not by my little brother's - and wish I could just get the fuck up there. Can't, so I'll pray down here. I've talked to Mum a bit, as well.
2. I got into this here Intarwebz fandom and far more than that, through a site called Television Without Pity. That was back in 2006. I learned ... so much from the people I met there, gained so much from them, learned about myself. It's shutting down next week. I'll write about that more later, when I'm not a scattered mess. It seems so odd that that is weighing on my mind as much as Mac's bypass surgery. The mind does weird things, doesn't it? Weird fucking things. And yes, the word "fuck" seems to be the only one I can think of using.
More. Later. Probably.

Date: Sunday, 30 March 2014 05:08 pm (UTC)I'm kinda torn up about TWoP. Who will share my pain about this? Well, my sister, and Kaffyr.
Oh, yeah, definitely. If I hadn't discovered TWoP, I wouldn't have found LJ and the online fandom I inhabit (and which keeps me sane in many ways). And I have so many fond memories of it. Some weird ones, too, but definitely I loved it at one time, and I'm still extraordinarily fond of it. And the fact that they're taking everything down (it'll be saved in some cache, but not publicly; I'm not even sure about the Way Back Machine having access to it) is even sadder. I'm spending part of my day copying and pasting recaps I loved, and possibly even the wonderful comment thread for LINDA, the Meet Market in the TARDIS thread where I met so many people.
