For those not familiar with the ownership of Livejournal. I know that I had missed several of these developments over the years: 


2007 - Six Apart was purchased by SUP at the end of 2007, Russian-based media company SUP bought it from Six Apart. The news was followed by a wave of outrage. SUP’s CEO was Alexander Mamut, a Russian banker with alleged ties to the Kremlin.    (https://thehistoryoftheweb.com/postscript/whatever-happened-livejournal/) 

2013 - SUP was purchased by, and merged with Rambler Media Group - https://cybpoint.ru/en/windows-7/rambler-internet-holding-oficialnyi-ooo-rih-obedinenie-s-sup-media-vladimira.html

I’m personally glad you did this, Gary!
Busy days at work…overtime all the time…We are short staffed due to sickness. Not COVID. Stomach flu bug thing is going around. 🤮.
My HoneyB has something like that w off and on temperatures and crouping. She goes to her pediatrician later today.

Oh no! I hope HoneyB feels better! My littlest one brought home a stomach bug from daycare last month and gave it to the rest of us, and ooof, that hit us all harder than when we had Covid. I hope you stay well, and the rest of your family too!

Thanks! Yes that stomach bug thing is happening big time in our area now as well. I hear it’s nasty. My son in law took HoneyB to the doc: pneumonia. Now some antibiotics for ten days. My daughter had pneumonia two times as a kid: age 2 and again in 2nd grade. The age 2 one was brutal. Week in a hospital. 2nd grade was mild.
