UPDATED: To Our Readers: A Change Is Gonna Come

Posted by | December 28, 2014 20:35 | Filed under: Politics Top Stories


Just to confuse our readers even more, we have some new changes about to take place. As you probably know, FreakOutNation merged with Liberaland quite a few months ago (Don’t make me look up the exact date. You’re not the boss of me!) and the traffic and comments have been amazing.

Alan is not forcing me to say this (nods head yes) but I’ve thoroughly enjoyed working with him and it’s been a wonderful learning experience for me. Gene is an excellent admin. He’s an easy guy to work with and talk to. Also, he likes hamburgers, too. Don’t judge me. I’m hungry.

That Anomaly woman

We are undoing the merge and will have two sites again, but we’ll still be working together. How can you do that, you say? OK, you didn’t say that, but I’ll answer the question anyway.

I’ll still be all over the comments here and our moderators have the option of staying on here, too.

When Alan’s away, I’ll fill in for him and unleash my libtardness on his readers. I’ll still be the same gauche blogger I’ve always been.

Tiffany Willis from Liberal America will be helping me out with the move because I’m a tech-dummy. Also, Gene is trying to make the transition easy for me, too.

Geeky ComgenKDT is also helping out and emailing me with lists of stuff to do and not to do.

I’m not sure what day this will take place but it will be soon. I have to call the server people and pay them eleventy thousand dollars in order to get a dedicated server thingy set up, but I’m on it.

I wanted to take a minute to thank all of our readers and that guy Alan, too. I love this site and will continue to auto-tweet posts from here and spread them far and wide — or just put the links on Facebook and tweet them.

To be clear: Alan and I did not get in a drag-out knock-down fight, although that would be a fun rumor to start. We started this venture as friends and we will remain friends. I thought this merge would give us both more time away from the computer. But, with more traffic, came more responsibilities and I still have no life <sad face>.

In addition, I need to make ends meet like grown ups do, so going back to FON might help me (or maybe not) to reach that goal

It’s been a fantastic ride. I love being here, so just because I won’t be here, that doesn’t mean I’m not really here. Yes, that made total sense in my head somehow.

I’ll be around.

I love you guys.

Music time!

Let me add how much Anomaly has contributed to the growth of Liberaland. She is a terrific blogger and has helped this site in ways I can’t even calculate. I hope those who have found us because of Anomaly and FON will stick around and enjoy both sites for the price of one.  Along with Anomaly we’ve found some terrific mods who will, hopefully, continue to interact with us in the comment section. A special thank you to  TiredOfTea, Mea_Mark, Carla and R.J. We’re aiming to relaunch FON any day now. Thanks to all who have helped grow the Liberaland community—Alan

    Can I transfer my LIBERALAND SAVINGS POINTS® when I go back to FON?

    • R.J. Carter December 19th, 2014 at 17:15

      Yes, but be aware that as part of the un-merger, those points are being converted at a 200-to-1 reverse split.

      • Hirightnow December 19th, 2014 at 17:23

        WHAT??!?
        I almost had enough for the full-color poster of Alan in a “HOPE” sweater!
        Now all I can hope to get is…(does the math)… a computer-signed 8X10 of Anomaly and Carla drinking box wine!
        I feel cheated.

        • Suzanne McFly December 19th, 2014 at 17:36

          Give me $5 and I will send you an awesome polaroid of me drinking Boones Farm Strawberry Hill straight out of the bottle lol.

          • Hirightnow December 19th, 2014 at 19:00

            I’ll send $3.00, but you gotta include a pic of that dog in your avatar photo with its favorite squeak toy…

            • Suzanne McFly December 19th, 2014 at 19:34

              That’s a bargain!! Its in the mail.

          • raincheck December 20th, 2014 at 06:42

            “Boones Farm Strawberry Hill” … How about “Annie Greensprings Peach creek?” lol ;)

            • Suzanne McFly December 20th, 2014 at 10:20

              Never had it, but it sounds good

              • raincheck December 20th, 2014 at 12:30

                I’ve had both… they are pretty close to the same ‘quality’
                I remember back in school daze… there was a wine called “Red Mountain” It was a 1.99 per GALLON! omg… the things I did when I was young..

                • Suzanne McFly December 20th, 2014 at 21:40

                  I still can buy the Boones Farm for 3.99, when I go to concerts I pick up a bottle to drink while my other friends grab a 6 pack. I have become so classy as I get older lol.

                  • raincheck December 21st, 2014 at 05:10

                    Reading what you wrote here, takes me back to a more ‘care free’ time in my life… The last Concert I went to was ‘Van Morrison’ and before that was ‘Eric Clapton’ ‘Bob Seger’… and somewhere in all of that, I saw the ‘Monkee’s’ Don’t laugh at the last one…. that was a really fun ‘Live performance Event’ In Lake Tahoe. My ex-wife’s Brother played the drums (Micky Dolenz) so we were treated to the “Stars Suite” and then spent the afternoon on ‘Harrah’s Yacht.
                    Thanks for taking me back to ….”THE GOOD OLD DAYS”

                    • Suzanne McFly December 21st, 2014 at 14:01

                      I have to admit I did laugh at the Monkee’s concert but I used to watch the show all the time when I was a kid lol. I still go to concerts, there are a lot of people there older than me and a lot of younger people as well. I don’t feel uncomfortable I just figure we all have good taste in music :)

    “libtardness” (quoted from article) from a supposed professional? I’m gone.

    • Anomaly 100 December 19th, 2014 at 20:00

      If that word offends your sensibilities, then you’ll really hate my site. Best you don’t drop by. I can be far more offensive than that. Also, this is not an ‘article.’ It’s a note to our readers.

      Have a nice night!

      • thinkingwomanmillstone December 19th, 2014 at 20:08

        People who can’t write without resorting to such terms offend my sensibilities. Obviously they go for a demographic that I don’t belong to. Your loss.

        • Anomaly 100 December 19th, 2014 at 20:11

          Yes, I feel like I’ve lost so much now. I doubt I will ever recover. FON has always used snark and sarcasm, but a person would need to understand those big words first to get it.

          Enjoy your holidays!

          • Abby Normal December 19th, 2014 at 23:08

            A snark is a cross between a snail and a shark and sarcasm has something to do with sex but I’m not sure exactly what.

            • Anomaly 100 December 20th, 2014 at 05:53

            Yep…you are right. I’m not in the 9th grade and don’t live in my parents’ basement.

              why do you insist on being rude and judgemental, try and develop a sense of humor and understand how she is making fun of the goptp

            • Chinese Democracy December 19th, 2014 at 22:38

              well if your parents had a basement you probably would. I bet the garage gets cold in the winter

              If you pay attention in class and study hard you’ll get to 9th grade before you know it. I know 7th grade can be difficult but, trust me, it doesn’t last forever.

              • granpa.usthai December 20th, 2014 at 00:16

                thanks for the tip, but I seem to be stuck in the 6th grade for nigh on purt near 60 years now, so that’d be 66 and if I’m stuck much longer it’ll be 66 and 6 (could explain why I’m starting to feel a bit like a beast?).

            • granpa.usthai December 20th, 2014 at 00:12

          No.
          It’s OUR loss.
          While Anomaly100 and I have not always had identical views, I can’t count the times her comments have caused me to pause and think. Some users’ posts I just scroll on past, but never Anomaly100’s.
          I like her sassiness because it doesn’t go overboard into crassness, but adds a nice dose of spiciness. She’s like a dash of Texas Pete.

          Gawwwwwwd, I’ll bet this means Discus will be taking even more time than usual………..

          • Chinese Democracy December 19th, 2014 at 22:43

              I have no idea. I claim the title of most ignorant tech dummy around here. I’d hate to have to do that, but will give it a try. I have a good connection and have tried clearing my history, but to no avail.
              Thanks for the tip.

      • raincheck December 20th, 2014 at 07:31

        It’s people like “thinkingwomanmillstone” that make me really want the ‘down vote’ to be brought back… any chance of that?

        • Anomaly 100 December 20th, 2014 at 07:32

          I want it back, too. It’s been suggested to Disqus on more than one occasion by quite a few users.

          • raincheck December 20th, 2014 at 07:45

            Why the reluctance from ‘Disqus’?
            I think it gives people an opportunity to express dis-approval of a comment, and show to what degree they dis-approve… I don’t see anything wrong with that…

            • Anomaly 100 December 20th, 2014 at 07:48

              I’m not sure really. I *think& they’re bring it back. Most people seem to want the down votes to show. Mea_Mark keeps up on Disqus more than I do so I’m sure he knows more about this.

              I’d prefer they bring it back because it highlights the trolls.

              • raincheck December 20th, 2014 at 07:49

                “I’d prefer they bring it back because it highlights the trolls”
                EXACTLY!!

                • mea_mark December 20th, 2014 at 09:33

                  Downvotes still work they’re just not visible. There will be some changes soon though in voting, so let’s just see what they do and then address what we would like to see modified with that. The best time to make suggestions is when things are changing. Keep your eyes open, it could happen at any moment.

              • raincheck December 20th, 2014 at 07:53

                Perhaps I’m a little slow… but it still isn’t clear to me how the “change” will affect what I see (I have to admit I didn’t read the whole “note to the readers” Is it simply that what I read, will be from FON, instead of LL?

                • Anomaly 100 December 20th, 2014 at 12:38

                  My site merged with Alan’s quite a few months ago, so anyone searching for FreakOutNation ended up here. But now we’ll have two sites again, but we’ll still be working together in other ways.

                  I hope that clears it up. I’m not good at ‘splainin stuff sometimes.

                  • raincheck December 20th, 2014 at 17:04

                    So when FON shows up in my news feed, that’s where I’ll end up rather than LL.
                    I often get sent to other Liberal sites, besides FON or LL… Is that supposed to happen?

                    • Anomaly 100 December 20th, 2014 at 17:33

                      I don’t know anything about the other sites. I’m confused by that. LL and FON are very similar. I just drop more F-bombs at FON:-)

                    • raincheck December 20th, 2014 at 18:59

                      I think one of them is called “Liberals United”? I’ll let you know the next time it happens if you’re interested..

    “libtardness” (quoted from article) from a supposed professional? I’m gone.

    • Anomaly 100 December 19th, 2014 at 21:00

      If that word offends your sensibilities, then you’ll really hate my site. Best you don’t drop by. I can be far more offensive than that. Also, this is not an ‘article.’ It’s a note to our readers.

      Have a nice night!

      • (((thinkingwomanmillstone))) December 19th, 2014 at 21:08

        People who can’t write without resorting to such terms offend my sensibilities. Obviously they go for a demographic that I don’t belong to. Your loss.

        • Anomaly 100 December 19th, 2014 at 21:11

          Yes, I feel like I’ve lost so much now. I doubt I will ever recover. FON has always used snark and sarcasm, but a person would need to understand those big words first to get it.

          Enjoy your holidays!

          • Abby Normal December 20th, 2014 at 00:08

            A snark is a cross between a snail and a shark and sarcasm has something to do with sex but I’m not sure exactly what.

            • Anomaly 100 December 20th, 2014 at 06:53

            • Chinese Democracy December 19th, 2014 at 23:38

              If you pay attention in class and study hard you’ll get to 9th grade before you know it. I know 7th grade can be difficult but, trust me, it doesn’t last forever.

              • granpa.usthai December 20th, 2014 at 01:16

                thanks for the tip, but I seem to be stuck in the 6th grade for nigh on purt near 60 years now, so that’d be 66 and if I’m stuck much longer it’ll be 66 and 6 (could explain why I’m starting to feel a bit like a beast?).

          No.
          It’s OUR loss.
          While Anomaly100 and I have not always had identical views, I can’t count the times her comments have caused me to pause and think. Some users’ posts I just scroll on past, but never Anomaly100’s.
          I like her sassiness because it doesn’t go overboard into crassness, but adds a nice dose of spiciness. She’s like a dash of Texas Pete.

          Gawwwwwwd, I’ll bet this means Discus will be taking even more time than usual………..

          • Chinese Democracy December 19th, 2014 at 23:43

              I have no idea. I claim the title of most ignorant tech dummy around here. I’d hate to have to do that, but will give it a try. I have a good connection and have tried clearing my history, but to no avail.

      • raincheck December 20th, 2014 at 08:31

        It’s people like “thinkingwomanmillstone” that make me really want the ‘down vote’ to be brought back… any chance of that?

        • Anomaly 100 December 20th, 2014 at 08:32

          I want it back, too. It’s been suggested to Disqus on more than one occasion by quite a few users.

          • raincheck December 20th, 2014 at 08:45

            Why the reluctance from ‘Disqus’?
            I think it gives people an opportunity to express dis-approval of a comment, and show to what degree they dis-approve… I don’t see anything wrong with that…

            • Anomaly 100 December 20th, 2014 at 08:48

              I’m not sure really. I *think& they’re bring it back. Most people seem to want the down votes to show. Mea_Mark keeps up on Disqus more than I do so I’m sure he knows more about this.

              I’d prefer they bring it back because it highlights the trolls.

              • raincheck December 20th, 2014 at 08:49

                “I’d prefer they bring it back because it highlights the trolls”
                EXACTLY!!

                • mea_mark December 20th, 2014 at 10:33

                  Downvotes still work they’re just not visible. There will be some changes soon though in voting, so let’s just see what they do and then address what we would like to see modified with that. The best time to make suggestions is when things are changing. Keep your eyes open, it could happen at any moment.

              • raincheck December 20th, 2014 at 08:53

                Perhaps I’m a little slow… but it still isn’t clear to me how the “change” will affect what I see (I have to admit I didn’t read the whole “note to the readers” Is it simply that what I read, will be from FON, instead of LL?

                • Anomaly 100 December 20th, 2014 at 13:38

                  My site merged with Alan’s quite a few months ago, so anyone searching for FreakOutNation ended up here. But now we’ll have two sites again, but we’ll still be working together in other ways.

                  I hope that clears it up. I’m not good at ‘splainin stuff sometimes.

                  • raincheck December 20th, 2014 at 18:04

                    So when FON shows up in my news feed, that’s where I’ll end up rather than LL.
                    I often get sent to other Liberal sites, besides FON or LL… Is that supposed to happen?

                    • Anomaly 100 December 20th, 2014 at 18:33

                      I don’t know anything about the other sites. I’m confused by that. LL and FON are very similar. I just drop more F-bombs at FON:-)

                    • raincheck December 20th, 2014 at 19:59

                      I think one of them is called “Liberals United”? I’ll let you know the next time it happens if you’re interested..

    I just hope this doesn’t mean the math problems I gotta solve when logging on will not get more difficult. I can work addition, subtraction, multiplication and division on my pocket calculator, but not stuff like fractions, sine, cosine and tangent. I done forgot all that stuff anyways.

    Somewhat off-topic, but starting yesterday, frequently when I come to the site, I get nothing but a blank page in Google Chrome. I have refreshed the page in the browser and just did a full power-off reboot. The problem persists.. I even tried accessing the site from google search results and no luck.

    FireFox works fine.

    Was there a system change that makes the site incompatible with chrome?

    I really don’t like using FireFox.

    • mea_mark December 20th, 2014 at 09:37

      Try clearing your cache if you haven’t done it recently. LL had some problems with old cookies showing up but seems to be working now. You just may still have some of the old cookies causing problems.

      • arc99 December 20th, 2014 at 11:30

        . Clearing the browser cookies did the trick. Chrome lets you select browsing history, download history, passwords and bunch of other stuff to clear. I selected only the cookies and looks to have resolved the problem.

        Thank you.

        • mea_mark December 20th, 2014 at 12:30

          You can even refine it further by just erasing the cookies for alan.com and http://www.alan.com, in case you have further problems. Just pull up all cookies and look for those two. That is what I do so I don’t mess with other stuff I have going on.

    I am just curious, never having been to this FON site (I’ll check it later) would it also be considered “liberal” (whatever-that-memes)?
    If so, what sets FON and LL apart from each other? Is there a notion they will compliment each other in specific ways? If so, how?
    I really enjoy reading LL and certainly appreciate the opprotunity to engage in serious, often passionate and ususally polite discussion from time to time. I hope that never changes and continues to promote good-old fashion values, like Democracy.

    • Republicans_are_Evil December 19th, 2014 at 21:40

      FON is definitely liberal. It’s more or less the same deal as LL, just a different set of writers. I enjoyed FON before it merged with LL, and I will probably enjoy both sites now that they are splitting up.

    • mea_mark December 20th, 2014 at 09:44
