gosh, are friends only banners still a thing? anyhow, hello! 

who am i? 30+ fandom old & corporate emo still obsessively writing in the social network fandom. I dabble in BTS, assorted danmei, smallville and your standard emo bandom (MCR & FOB). i love fluffy dogs, green glass and complaining about my job. this journal contains rants about how slowly my green glass is being posted to me, write-ups about holidays and gigs, and everyday/life updates including some musings on fandom.

who are you? i hope you're friendly and like chatting/commenting occasionally, and you don't mind me commenting on your posts! having a fandom in common is great but not mandatory!

Hello!!! Nice to see you here! I'm hoping more people will come to dw with mastodon gaining popularity and the crowd there being a little more into journaling/missing the vibes of old lj... I need to up my journaling too! I think it's probably good for me...

I started out on LJ back in 2005/06, only really drifted away as the Torchwood fandom faded and I started writing Rivers of London and Jonathan Strange and Mr Norrell fic - both small/smallish book based fandoms that only seemed to be active on Tumblr.

It would be nice to see dreamwidth busier again. I don’t think it will get back to how it was 15 or so years ago.

There seems to be a nostalgia for it, and even web forums, maybe it’s all of us who were late teens/early 20s back in the journaling sites heydays 2000/2010 are close to 40/40+ these days.

i think i probably joined lj around the same time? I followed a writer i admired from ffnet over in around hmmm 2004??? 😂 i was in a really specific anime fandom then but i quickly diversified over the next couple of years into bandom and some really niche media/ships. i am SO certain i read fic on torchwood_classic!!!!!!

i'm definitely seeing more interest on mastodon at least for journaling and standalone sites....i so want that flame to keep getting fanned!!!! let's go 30s 40s+ people!!!!
