"StarkWire: coming home"
 
   I can't give you a timeline for it because I have literally just in the last few minutes started on this, but I'm getting the existing StarkWire posts off of LiveJournal with an eye toward converting them into flat posts that will live somewhere on the EPU website, along the same lines as the new Gun of the Week. It won't look quite the same as it did on LJ, but the content should be preserved and I ought to be able to make it look nice. Once I'm satisfied that it's all in order, the LJ version will be deleted, and future posts in support of new TIA episodes will be under the local system right from the off.

Yes, I should've done this ages ago, but, like the GotW conversion, it got hung up for a long time on the idea that I needed to be doing it with a dynamic blogging system, which, in retrospect plainly, I don't really.

   I like this plan. Given recent developments on LiveJournal, it's probably for the best.

That's more or less what finally prompted me to make it happen, yeah (that and the way developing the new Gun of the Week with Dreamweaver worked out). I don't particularly mind where on the planet the servers or the money are; but I decline to remain bound by a user agreement I can't even read, subject to the laws of a government I trust even less than my own (no offense to our Russian readers), any longer than I have to.

I'm very glad you all mentioned this. I don't post or use social media at all, really, except for LinkedIn (and I don't actively use that, just keep it updated for professional reasons), but I had a very, very old LJ account from many moons ago. I didn't know about the Russian takeover at all--that's how long it's been--but the TOS reads like 1984, which is no surprise. I had to download a style mod for LJ to be able to delete my account without agreeing to the TOS.
