Not exactly in the same boat but I feel you on the unearthing a stranger from the past thing.

I have so many great story ideas that I definitely wrote out as a prologues and then left them like that. All my old stories in hiatus because I don't have time. I miss all the freedom I had as a teenage to write fanfics.

I try not to dwell on it.

[philstar22]

Even 5 years ago I was a totally different person.

I was never the biggest fan of Livejournal but I feel you so much on this. Somehow I was juggling school and cool fanworks but nowadays I can barely keep a job and scribble on the side. I had a brain event that took away my knack for writing too, can't do creative writing with the same ease as before, can't project feelings on characters. If it's fanfic with a pre-established world and characters I can do it (but it's not as natural as it used to be) but yeah, it hits... not as good. Can't say it's a lack of time issue either, just executive dysfunction and maybe chronic depression and brain damage really. The minds prioritizes survival and everything else gets shoved under the bus.

It saddens me to revisit old fansites on Wayback Machine because I can tell it's not just my enthusiasm that was taken away by hustle culture. It's mine, yours and a lot of other folks' too.

[tabaqui]

Oh, man, yeah. My BFF and I were just talking about that the other day, and all the FUN we had, all the writing, all the talk, the discussions, the community. LJ in 2003/2004 was when it all started for me and it was just...grand.

It makes me melancholy how I no longer have the same interests, I miss getting excited about old ships and the hype I felt when a new movie came out in fandoms I've long since moved on from.

Ooh, thanks for the rec! (My favorite is "D'yer Mak'er," but I can catch that on classic rock radio stations, so it's not the deepest cut by any means.)

B-But, Gonna Paint Your Wagon. The Kwik-e-Mart song. See my Vest. The Monorail song! Every single Sherry Bobbins episode songs. Jazz man! Lisa, It's Your Birthday! The New Orleans musical! Dr. Zaius Dr Zaius! I'm Checking In! The Kids vs. Adults songs! The Garbage Man Can!

...Obviously, I feel differently and adore the songs The Simpsons have produced. Admittedly, these are from the classic era as I don't watch much of the newer ones to remember.

But fair enough, it's not your thing and that's fine.

Old people are always tutting at the youth but honestly they're not so bad and better than us in a lot of ways.

Glad to hear you were able to get back into your fandom.

I know xxxHolic was revived after the original series ended, but I remember it didn't get very far before CLAMP... put it on hiatus again? Are you saying it's been recently announced it's coming back? In which case, god, I would kill for a conclusion, too.

But man, both xxxHolic and Tsubasa really burned me from CLAMP and I felt a lot of their newer stuff haven't been as good. I do like CCS: Clear Card, but I might just be biased, CCS is my favorite anime/manga.

But color me curious regardless.

Politics thread:

God. Was in court today. The government attorney was trying to end a bunch of cases to put those people in "expedited removal." That is a special type of thing that used to only apply to people who had been here before and already had court and were told to leave. It means no judge unless you express fear of return. Now they are claiming it applies to anyone who met up with the government within two years of coming into the country.

The law does not support that. But the fight will take a while, and meanwhile a lot of people who have been here for decades and have families and should get due process won't get it.
