Speaking only for myself, my journal started as a focused specific-topic and I was a whiny little shit! I release you from the obligation of reading about who I was in 2004.
I know what you mean about missing who (I) used to be and how that was reflected in our worlds. LJ was one of the ONLY "social" outlets, unless you had a website (RIP GeoCities). I got into tumblr a few years ago after I started watching Shadow and Bone, but I had also joined a Discord of fans and that provided a LOT of the social energy that LJ would have done back in the day. (Never thought I'd be sitting here moaning the old days like my elders did when I was wee, but there's a lot of things I never thought would happen either. SO.)

Big hugs, and a toast to days gone by.
