In case of LJ outage

I want to make clear that I don't expect all my fanfiction or all my communities or this journal to ever be deleted from livejournal, because I've never really written anything underage, although certainly it sucks for the people who like to.

I will not be making crossposts, nor setting up shop at alternate journalling services¹. However, in the event of mass livejournal outage, I will update cimorene111@journalfen.net, the journal I use for reading and commenting at fandom wank and related communities. There are no entries there now, but feel free to friend it if you're at journalfen, and to tell me your username so that I can friend you there:

[Poll #1032665]

I do not recommend JF, as I've said before, as a permanent LJ alternative, mainly because the poor servers are overworked and it tends to go down under the burden of heavy traffic. But since it's firmly in the control of fen, I think it makes sense to advocate it as a kind of base of operations for fannish communication in case of calamity; and the rest of the alternative journalling services seem to be rather splintering than uniting us. I also don't recommend it as an alternative to LJ's fic-archiving functions in fandom, but perhaps if we're lucky fanarchive will be able to come to our rescue there. LJ isn't really designed as a fic archive, anyway, and its character limits and frequently unreadable layouts make it less than ideal, though of course the comment feature has been a boon. (As always, my fiction and recs can be found at cimorene.net and waxjism.org - and I vastly prefer people read them there anyway.)

1. I own cimorene at gj and maybe at vox? But those are not for blogging purposes either - don't bother friending them!

shoes

I can't express how much I want these pairs of shoes. The chartreuse leather peep-toes more, but they're completely sold out of existence, not that I would actually be buying either one of them.

in ur coffee tables

I would have taken away the Kitty [Cardboard] Box - which you can see behind the Crazy on the back of the sofa - except the cats just love it so much I would feel cruel. So it stayed out when the livingroom was otherwise tidied from top to bottom except for our desk area, whose deposits of mail, hair notions, small electronics, medications, books, and moisturisers are sacrosanct.
