Hi there! Due to circumstances beyond my control, it has become prudent for me to friends-lock most posts. If you're new to knowing me and you at least want access to the lower security level locks, just let me know. I'm usually pretty cool about adding you.

I have been asked to provide an updated Wishlist.

Wishlists last reviewed and updated: 3/10/2008 (March 10, 2008)

Here's my Amazon List (mostly video game stuff):


Here's my Google Product Search Wish List (books, movies, music, knife-related stuff, food related stuff).

Feel free to prod me if the last time I updated these is too long ago.

Please note:

If this journal suddenly becomes inactive, or the only posts you see are ones that direct you to another blog elsewhere, it will be because I've finally had enough of LiveJournal's stupid lack-of-policy bullshit and have fucked off somewhere I like better, most probably a blog I own and run and can make and enforce my own rules with.

Due to the latest fiasco with LJ/SixApart encouraging users to narc each other out on subjective feelings of "obscenity", "decency" and other completely intangible, very poorly defined (in general, and not at all defined in LJ/SixApart's/SUP's policy) concepts (See part 1, part 2, and a very brief mention in news), I will be fucking off this rock at my earliest convenience, unless hell freezes over and LJ/SixApart/SUP actually implement and publish what I consider to be a workable policy.

Also, you are welcome to narc me out and flag this journal as inappropriate for minors, but I will never do so, and if you are affected by such a thing, I strongly encourage you to claim, as I have, to be 106 years old, so you can read what you like.

Since my account is now a Plus account, it's showing the wrong e-mail address for me. The right one is in fact malcolm.gin@gmail.com.
