       It's hard for me (and I guess in general) to assess the bonds we form online. We're forming a network of care and support, which however genuine those are, however freely those are given, they but leave me (us?) to wonder which part we have in that...How permanent that part is once it's given up for a while, or for good.My truth is that I do wonder how y'all are doing, whether you kept all of this going while I was away, fearing it had fallen apart.It meant a lot to see familiar faces/display names/icons.It meant a lot to interact with you again, even if it was just a fave - whether it was given or received.It meant a lot to be recognised while trying to get back in touch.This, however, includes people I merely see boosted by others, too. The same goes for those I followed just recently.And however much or little you know and/or accept all of this about me, I'll see all of you as friends. However much or little we agree about different topics, however much or little we have in common.There's value in all of that.And just for the record: I'm neither drunk nor high while writing this. (This doesn't seem alltoo self explanatory, so including it can't hurt, right?)That said:You rock. All of you.Please keep those care networks stable in any way you can. Please continue to pursue inclusion and diversity. Please keep learning new things, sharing (old) stories, and making new friends to empower them, yourself and others you might not even be aware of.Amd thanks for the journey so far.

       @root @guerrillarain I once had one that said:If you stand between a dog and its tree,you're about to get pissed.
