Back in the day, I felt like everyone was on Livejournal, and I got a lot of comments going with some frequency.
These days, I get mostly crickets.
I accept that it may just be because what I'm writing these days isn't as provocative of discussion as in the past. I also get the sense that a lot of people have gone off to Dreamwidth and other blogging sites, and that many people are spending a bunch of their online-social time and energy on Facebook and Twitter. So maybe that's it.
Still. It'd just be nice to know whether folks are listening. Ping here if you're still reading?

Date: 2011-03-22 12:09 am (UTC)Let me explain. Wait, no, that will take too long, let me sum up.
I went through my reading list today, as is my usual. I saw nothing from you on my reading list. Normally when I see nothing from somebody on my reading list it is either that they have not posted or they posted behind a lock I cannot see.
You did not post this behind a lock I cannot see. I can see both of your posts from today when I am looking at just your journal. However, I doublechecked (and triplechecked) my reading filter; neither of your posts appeared there.
This seems to be an LJ bug. I am still (definitely) interested in reading about your life (a poor second to hanging out with you, but a beggar ain't a chooser). Do you want me to contact LJ admin about this, or would you prefer to do so first? It makes me wonder who else I haven't seen...

Date: 2011-03-22 01:04 am (UTC)Incidentally, your posts don't show up on my friends page anymore, even though we're still mutual friends. I haven't figured out why this is. I only knew you posted this because you mentioned it on FB.
