I’ve tried repeatedly to lj-cut this, but it isn’t taking and the code is just getting worse every time I try. Maybe I’ll go through the effort on Monday to fix it. So anyway, sorry about the lack of cuts.

Working on another bulk, massive update (yay!), but I’m thinking about leaving livejournal. Seriously enough that I only paid them for 2 more months.
So, I need advice and here’s what I’m thinking:
