I wish there was. It would make my life easier as well... *huggle*

So that's a no to turning off journal updates?

OTL

*huggle back* Ugh, I bet. There's just some updates you don't want to read about.

There are a lot of updates I just don't really care about in general... Some artists I just watch for their art. Others I watch cause of their art and I consider them friends. I hate coming on after a long weekend to find 100journals of people who do nothing but bitch about this or that. Don't get me wrong everyone has those days. And I have vented before as well... But seriously, every journal talking about how they hate life or hate their watchers or how they hate this sort of person... I just get so sick of it. I have gotten to the point where I have deleted artist because of their actions towards their watchers or their hurtful words to just random people. And what sucks is I will still click on their stuff on the front page because I really enjoy their art. Then I'm like, ffffffffffffffffffffffff why you be so mean. That way I could just watch you... D: lol

AUGH this ENTIRELY. All of that is what I face, minus the 100 journals, because I try not to watch so many people at once. XD (Although the way some people update their journals, you'd think I did...)

Honestly, that's why I (try to) save all my negativity for Tumblr or Livejournal. That way people who just want to see art don't have to worry about it, and I don't alienate people too much with my opinions. *nodnod*

Its not a bad thing to have an opinion on things. That is what makes us human. Its just that some people want to shove their opinion so far down their watchers throats that the watcher is poopin out the artist leftover knowledge and or preachings... *sigh* But I do agree with you. I really try not to crab to much. Otherwise people get crabby with me. I used to be really bad. I have moved away from that. On here I have only really done a few rant journals. But when I get to that point you know I am pissed. I try to stay neutral, but like I said, I am human...

Oh no, not saying there is. But it's like how you said afterwards. I can be super passionate about my opinions, but I really try to respect that not everyone is the same as me, so I keep them to other sites.

And yeah, same here. Used to be a majorly Negative Nancy, but hopefully that's all in the past now. XD
