Hi, just letting you know that I’m outta here (LJ) I’m only on long enough to comment in friend’s journals so I don’t lose track of folks.
Due to my inability to continue to give money to a company, Six Apart/Live Journal, who harassed women for having breast-feeding images as their default icons (tiny images that didn’t show anything) and then allowed a very offensive default image of a black man and the words “You Gonna Get RAPED!” as a default icon, despite many complaints, I’ve pulled my blog.
It’s a matter of principle. they are not getting my money.

I like to politely ask if they'd care to hold while I check with my employees. I had one that waited 15 minutes before finally realizing I wasn't coming back.
