You just fainted, didn’t you? Well, if you have an ounce of fangirlism, the following (also from JAFG) will utterly, completely finish you off. It’s amazing what a dedicated fangirl can do with Windows Movie Maker and a YouTube account.
Yes, today we are in mourning. Never have the interwebs seen such an outbreak of black-armbandism and female weepiness, at least not since that one time when Justin Bieber said he was going to quit Twitter.
Yes, today we learned that our good internet buddies the charming and fragrant Julian Assange Fanciers Guild has closed its metaphorical doors, presumably forever. Not just stopped posting: deleted. FINITO!
To all the readers of Julian Assange Fanciers’ Guild:
I’ve decided to retire the blog permanently. It has been a strange little funhouse of satire, amusement and political commentary, but creeping tedium has been softly knocking at the door for me for a few months now. Sometimes it’s better to wrap something up than continue flogging the same schtick well past its use-by date.
I graciously thank all the readers who contributed excellent curios, oddities and commentary, both inane and serious – you have played a significant role in carving out this irreverent corner of the interwebs. I have learned much from you (and occasionally been disturbed, lol).
Last but certainly not least, I’d like to thank Julian Assange: for following his original plan, hatched somewhere in a formulae-covered Melbourne bedroom and seeing it through to create something bigger than himself; something that is borne of an idealism perennially vulnerable, but equally deathless because of and despite human nature. We have yet to see this idea reach its apogee – of that I am certain.
(Let’s not forget those fascinating hairstyles).
Peace.
