wwwords_updates is the feed for worldwidewords.com - yay. Word geekery. It had the origin of a phrase my mother used all the time when I was a kid. If I asked how we were getting somewhere and the answer was walking - she would say, "Shank's mare." Turns out it is Scottish like my mom and grandmother.

ETA: I've heard rumblings about lj purging journals that contain icons or references to "wincest." Or something. Well, it sounds like they actually did. bookshop has a nice long post about it all.

ETA #2: Apparently lj didn't delete anyone? What is going on?

ETA #3:OK, yes. lj did delete many communities and some personal ljs all because of some crazy people who think they are hunting online predators. liz_marcs communicated with the Uptight for Jesus brigade. Although I think that woman is actually a member of Clueless for the Heck of it Society. liz_marcs however is made of awesomeness.

ETA #4: Call Six Apart and tell them this will not fly. And tell them you will put your money where your mouth is and not with their DBA anymore. Info about calling Six Apart.
