For those wanting to know more about the recent DDoS attacks, yes, it looks like it was the Russian government trying to shut down the dissidents again. As I said last time, while it's frustrating not to have access, LJ is a lot more than a social network platform. From the article: "LiveJournal isn’t just a social network. It’s also a platform for organizing civic action. Dozens of network projects and groups mobilize people to solve specific problems — from defending the rights of political prisoners to saving endangered historic architecture in Moscow." So while I know many are considering the move over to Dreamwidth and other such sites, supporting LJ is a way we can help support those who use it for more than a writing/roleplaying/social venue. Also, as a FYI, LJ is giving paid users effected by the outage two weeks of paid time as compensation. Also posted at Dreamwidth, where there are
17th September, 2010. 1:47 am. From Marvel Comics "Civil War" "Doesn't matter what the press says. Doesn't matter what the politicians or the mobs say. Doesn't matter if the whole country decides that something wrong is something right. This nation was founded on one principle above all else: the requirement that we stand up for what we believe, no matter the odds or the consequences. When the mob and the press and the whole world tell you to move, your job is to plant yourself like a tree beside the river of truth, and tell the whole world - 'No, you move.' " Cpt. America

2nd January, 2010. 11:27 pm. The Witch By Leah (a.k.a. Broomstyx) I pitied pain in man or beast, And only sought their good, I used my herbs and healing arts, To help them if I could I pitied small defenseless things, And since I lived alone, The orphaned hare, the homeless cat, Crouched on my warm hearthstone. Though all could see my frugal life, And none could deem me rich, Some swore I sold my soul for gold And cursed me for a witch. And when there came the crop that failed, The child that could not thrive, They drove me out with blow and shout, To hang or burn alive.

Gaia Consort - The Rede I've been blessed with many lovers and I'd grant the same you Though I suppose I'd skip a broken heart or two I confess that I am troubled by that pious vocal few When they cross the line and tell us what to do Ah But life's too short for all this worry - I offer myself to you whole Life's too long for lies to carry any more weight in this world An it harm none, do what ye will As the circle has bound us, bound we are still Though the bottle be empty, may the cup remain filled An it harm none, do what ye will I will call the four directions, I will cast a circle here I will put my feet upon the holy ground In the shadow there reflected I will find and face my fear And we all know there is fear a'plenty round Ah But life's too short for all this worry - I offer myself to you whole Life's too long for lies to carry any more weight in this world An it harm none, do what ye will As the circle has bound us, bound we are still Though the bottle be empty, may the cup remain filled An it harm none, do what ye will Every act of love and pleasure is a prayer along the way With everything between the living Earth and Sky When it's all of life we treasure through the endless spinning days In our actions you will know us by and by Ah But life's too short for all this worry - I offer myself to you whole Life's too long for lies to carry any more weight in this world An it harm none, do what ye will As the circle has bound us, bound we are still Though the bottle be empty, may the cup remain filled An it harm none, do what ye will An it harm none, do what ye will As the circle has bound us, bound we are still Though the bottle be empty, may the cup remain filled An it harm none, do what ye will An it harm none, do what ye will © September 23, 1996 Christopher Bingham, Autumnal Equinox, Seattle |
