this all sucks

Apparently Yahoo is planning to shutdown delicious and have already gotten rid of all the delicious employees, so maybe that it is not working right for me is already due to degrading infrastructure?

And the other bookmark service I used fannishly, Simpy, (well once upon a time I bookmarked fanart there because they had better tag operators than delicious, but it had been flaky so I drifted away) shut down earlier this year, as I only now noticed. They didn't even sent users an email or anything, so I didn't export my bookmarks from there. Thankfully that were only a couple not the 5800+ I store on delicious. :(

Also SGU was cancelled. And even though I would have rather had SGA, I still watched SGU. I'm not that broken up about it being cancelled, but I'm not gleeful that it's gone either.

My first thought when I heard about SGU being cancelled is that I kinda hope not to see a whole big slew of celebratory posts on my flist (so far, I haven't), because I know there are people out there for whom it's "their show", like SGA was my show (well, me and a million other fangirls, but you know what I mean), and as much as it sucks to have your show be cancelled, it must suck even worse when your show gets cancelled and everyone is glad.

That was my first thought as well. And I have several people on my friends list who like that show. I intend to give SGA fandom a wide bearth for the next week or so. Wider than usual, I mean. There was a lot of dancing on the grave when Angel was cancelled... it was not pleasant to look at.

[eta: ah, I mean wide berth. Which is a nautical term, I just learned...]

The gloating sucks. It's just not classy, and it's not like it brings back SGA either.
