This is a step-by-step guide to using LJ cuts.

skylust and I were talking and we picked up on reading one's flist. Pach has a remarkably larger flist than mine, so she has all these filters to sort through the list easily. But often, she doesn't have enough time to filter through everything AND have time to fangirl.

but not before the caffeine short-circuits
your system:

a silent storm raging in a cup,
