One of the advantages of LJ over normal message boards is that you can choose who's posts to see/read. The importance of friending seems to undermine that advantage. If LJ stresses you, do what others do. Lurk. Write your posts but disable replies and don't go where the kerfuffles are. Using custom groups helps too. LJ is incredibly time consuming. And I'm not insulted if you don't read my verbose posts. I swear. You do what keeps you sane and happy. Fandom is supposed to be fun! *smooch*
One thing you could do is find someone who helps you keep track of good fic, someone who helps with AAS. If you like I can rec fic to you if I come across good stories. I'm glad you want to keep the archive.
As for the fandom kerfuffles: it's just human to get agitated. People are bored. It's a long summer. We are all waiting for AtS to start...
