How odd. LJ has told me that my password is outdated and locked me out. Since the email address with which I opened the original account is long dead, that's it for LJ, then, unless it's a temporary glitch. They had one of those not too long ago, where I would occasionally get told that my account had been temporarily banned.

My cross posting isn't working any more and last time I tried to check my LJ account, Chrome thought it was a security risk and I ended up at a dodgy looking page claiming to be my ISP... I think LJ must have been hacked or something

[andrewducker]

Yeah, I believe they had a breach of older passwords, and so are doing a forced update.

[anna_wing]

Ah, then my account is dead. Will have to open new one.

I'm sorry, that's a shame.

Better late than never I guess... I've been bracing myself for the propoganda machine working and them getting reelected.

I shall be interested to see what happens to confidence in the government as and when we see infections and death go back up after the confused relaxation of the lockdown and the VE weekend.

YES THIS.
