I subscribe to various sundry of communities - anything from crock pot cooking to werewolf bigbang.

I have found more often than not I just scroll on past the postings from these communities to get to what I am really interested in - the postings by my friends. Sometimes I will bookmark a posting thinking I will come back later to read it - usually I don't.

So, this morning I did a little journal housekeeping and unwatched, unfollowed and unsubscibed to the vast majority of these communities.  Pretty much the only ones left are NCIS related.  Looks like I am a one trick pony in more ways than one.

It made a huge difference in my journal - now I can focus on the things that are really important to me - my friends and my show.

Should have done this long ago!

I actually like the changes you have made for this update. 

I hope DW (soon) incorporates some of these - especially the spoiler tag and the sticky note and picture place holders.

One of my entries didn't cross post earlier, so I am testing!

My friend [livejournal.com profile] proseac1. posted this is in her journal this morning.  It outlines why alot of folks are migrating from LJ to DW.

Though I am not ready to give up my LJ entirely (yet), I will be going back to the free version once my paid subscription expires later this year.  LJ will NOT be getting anymore of my money.

I plan to continue crossposting from DW to LJ (it will serve as my backup journal just in case anything happens to DW) and I will check it frequently for posts from my flist who don't migrate.  Just a note to those who haven't migrated: DW is free and it is amazing.  It is growing daily with all the LJ refugees and a good portion of the comms have already moved there.

It will be interesting to see how all this plays out and if LJ makes it long term considering they are "throwing away" a significant part of their user base.

My painful feet literally woke me up this morning. Who ever designed my shoes from last night must have graduated at the top of his or her class on how to make a torture device and disguise it as a pair of hot shoes. Popped a few ibuprofen and will be ready to rock the heeled boots for tonight.

So, since I was up and the rest of the family are still snoozing away, I thought I would check out some of the DW communities. I was disappointed to discover that there is not much going on here in the NCIS fandom. Or, if there is I haven't been able to find it. As I was sulking in my diet coke, I had a thought....

This may actually be a good opportunity for us to start a NCIS fandom here on DW. We have been complaining for ages about all the drama and angst in the fandom, this could be our chance to start a community free from all that.

The comm would be open to all fans - shippers and non-shippers. Shippers of any and all pairings would be welcome. Not welcome would be main character bashing, ship bashing - heck bashing of any sort.

Wouldn't it be nice to have a comm where we could all come together to celebrate our shows (the comm would be for both DC & LA) without fear of drama and angst? A place to ship and let ship? A place where we support each other - not tear each other down? A place where fandom is fun again? 

Well, something to think about while we sit around the fire, roasting chestnuts, gazing at Christmas tree lights and sipping egg nog.

Do comments not cross post?

On LJ - Rae's posting has 23 comments.  On DW - none.

Is there another secret button that I haven't clicked?

hahahaha - I feel like a toddler learning to walk.
