  • I believe in the Fort.

    And I liked Jessica's optimism on Zoom. Can't remember her precise words, but it was to the extent that this place is really something special.

    I wouldn't be here if I didn't believe the same.

    We know better than "site-which-shall-not-be-named," collectively, having been the very example of free THINKERS on that site and having been unjustly (or perhaps, justly, in my case) banned.

    I was so astonished when I was finally allowed back in and found you all had been banned.

    Any group that is tolerant of me is something incredibly special, in my opinion.

    When I've been at my most alienated, strange (?) but true, I've had you guys as a buoy to keep me from sinking. There's always been someone who wouldn't just ignore me, even if it's to put me in my place, spanning from hip to now, and its worth I cannot calculate, but it's made me the semi-functional person I am today.

    And I mean this with all my heart, thank you guys.. I can be a bit over-the-top, I know. And you guys must be pretty incredible, from my point of view.

    But yeah, complain all you like...there's one guy at least who thinks this place and the people in it are EXCEPTIONAL individuals.

    And I know this place is special, whether it flourishes in a big way, or it's our own private Idaho.

    You help make it exceptional, Andy.

      I know I disturb people, though... I'm a lot, Sun, Moon, and Neptune aligned in Sag.

      Hopefully you can mostly be Polar Bears that jump in my icy lake, though.

      We don't even know what we've got here. And it's for the best. This is some kind of astronomical power house.

              That's deep
              You will no doubt think I'm being sarcastic, but meh, I might actually use that one later in another context

                It's not deep, just an observation I can't avoid, being me. "I see people turn their heads and quickly look away. Like a newborn baby, it just happens every day."

                  So maybe I scared some bullies away, so be it. Doing things their way is never gonna work. I'm reticent to label some people here that, but it's so. I'd rather seven peacemakers were here than seven peacemakers and a thousand people who won't mind their manners. But that's just me.

                            I know how it goes, though. I'm slighted behind my back here, I'm pretty sure, by pretty much everyone who is anyone.

                            That's fair, though, and to be expected for one who has been so bold as I have. So, just so you no, no, I don't think, "Gee, these people really like me."
