Привет! LiveJournal imports may be slow
Dec. 31st, 2025 08:24 pmПривет and welcome to our new Russian friends from LiveJournal! We are happy to offer you a new home. We will not require identification for you to post or comment. We also do not cooperate with Russian government requests for any information about your account unless they go through a United States court first. (And it hasn't happened in 16 years!)
Importing your journal from ЖЖ may be slow. There are a lot of you, with many posts and comments, and we have to limit how fast we download your information from ЖЖ so they don't block us. Please be patient! We have been watching and fixing errors, and we will go back to doing that after the holiday is over.
I am very sorry that we can't translate the site into Russian or offer support in Russian. We are a much, much smaller company than LiveJournal is, and my high school Russian classes were a very long time ago :) But at least we aren't owned by Sberbank!
С Новым Годом, and welcome home!
EDIT: Большое спасибо всем за помощь друг другу в комментариях! Я ценю каждого, кто предоставляет нашим новым соседям информацию, понятную им без необходимости искать её в Google. :) И спасибо вам за терпение к моему русскому переводу с помощью Google Translate! Прошло уже много-много лет со школьных времен!
Thank you also to everyone who's been giving our new neighbors a warm welcome. I love you all ❤️
Lingering Challenge
Dec. 29th, 2025 06:46 amBut all is not lost - it is only Monday and we are still firmly in the weird week of the year.
What's lingering?
We all have that book. The one we'll get to later. The one that doesn't get chosen. The one that's well-intentioned. (It's been sitting there for a long time.)
While it doesn't have to be the absolute oldest thing on your TBR shelf, if you even know what is, this is the week to read* something that's been waiting for awhile.
I'll try for a follow-up around the 5th. Nudge me if I've been buried under bookpiles.
*read/listen/watch/play. Whatever media you choose is fine.

Dec. 27th, 2025 08:10 pmBetween being busy and getting sick, it looks like my annual Cards & Tea post may have be postponed to the New Year - I definitely don't want to be handling comestibles, or even cards, in the state I'm in now.
I've been too busy to crack the pages on either my newest purchases, Stars of Chaos volume 2 and the first book of Married Thrice to a Salted Fish, but I'm still looking forward to them. I did finally finish watching Mob Psycho 100's 3rd season last week, and greatly enjoyed it! Yesterday, when I wasn't feeling quite as awful, I started a Tiger & Bunny rewatch, and got 7 episodes in; no progress on that today, but maybe tomorrow.
If you participated in Yuletide, what gift(s) did you get? If you're just reading, has anything caught your eye? Any new fandoms you're eyeing for 2026, or rereads/rewatches you're planning?
