changing audiences

I first got this lj from ikkyu2, because all the cool t.b kids were doing it. I friended the folks I knew from t.b and a bunch of you friended me back. I haven't used it a whole lot, especially after I developed a rather specialized interest and mostly absconded to a new journal set up specifically for that purpose. (Which has an order of magnitude more friends than this one, and is a paid account while this one is free, which probably tells you something about my priorities.)

But now I've got a lot of non-t.b people on my flist, either from said interest, from other shared interests, or from real life. And I've started using this journal more frequently now that 1) it's outdoorsy season, and 2) I'm heavily involved in politics, and therefore I've got lots of stuff to say. Er, mostly involving mountains and politics. I'm going to try to talk a little more about my nonfiction writing, too.

So if any of you t.b people (heck, or the rest of you) are not actually interested in what I have to say, and only friended me out of a vague sense of guilt about keeping up with the t.b crowd, feel free to defriend me. I won't be offended. If I enjoy what you have to say, I'll keep reading your journals whether or not you read mine. And I may be dropping people from my list as I decide that my interests have diverged from what you post.
