I've actually been thinking a lot about that post of yours where you talked about this. I was floored (in a good way) at how much of yourself you put out there. (Thank you for the song, BTW. It-- Hurt so good, is the best I can come up with.)
I've really liked reading about your personal stuff (and that of the others on my small-but-growing flist). I find myself thinking of it randomly during the day ("Hm, I wonder what logovo had for lunch today? Did Sheera get to that music store, and what were those wands?")
I'm finding that I also like reading the squee about fandoms I'm not in. Even if I can't share the excitement about that story, I know what it feels like to find something fannishly exciting, and I'm vicariously pleased.
I'm just not feeling particularly jazzed about anything fannish myself at the moment. I know that something sparkly will come along, and I will be again. In the meantime, RL is on overload. *shrugs*
(Oh, how I wish the bandslash did it for me; I'm having so much fun watching y'all and I want to come play, but it just doesn't push the right buttons. I don't want to eroticize those boys, I want to mother them--wrong energy for the slash.)
So, I'm thinking, like you, that cut-tags are the way to go. Then I don't have to worry that I'm spamming those who just need a little fun and escapism, but I can stay connected to the ones who like that, too.
