Yeah, I have something I need to get off my chest.

This site was a whole lot better when I joined 2 years ago in July 2018. Unfortunately though, things have changed and not for the better. Lots of the good members have left, and many of the good ones still here have turned into nothing more than political trolls. Not all, but many. If you all want to keep posting dumb crap just to stir the pot and not have an actual adult discussion, then that is fine. I'm not a mod, an admin, or anyone's mom on here. My life was no different before I joined SW, and I doubt that my life would be any different without it.
I really wish there was a way to block posts by subject. That would make me so happy.
@bijouxbroussard I wish it so much, 🖤🤗 I love you.
@bijouxbroussard I’m so tired. Life is long... too long.

You are here though. Thank you! You make SW a far nicer place.
@Fauxmyope2 Thank you. I do try, even when I am not in the best of moods 🤗.

@latinbutterfly Yes, and you are tremendously appreciated. 🤗
I think for those of us here since the beginning, the current dynamics just flat wear us out. We know how good it can be but weeding out the whackadoos is exhausting.

I find myself taking more and more SW breaks but still try to peek in for friends and to share encouragement...it’s the best I can do right now.
@Pinkstarburst I thought being on here less would help but I guess what I need is an actual vacation...lol 🤷🏻‍♀️.
@latinbutterfly Many of us have done that. Nothing wrong with unplugging for a while. Just remember you have friends here and will be missed while you’re away.

Might I suggest.... the block button?
@SW-User Yeah, but at some point a person can only take so much 🤷🏻‍♀️.

@latinbutterfly This site was best two years ago. I've got maybe five people left I actually care about.

I stick to the circle/friends feed but it is getting dry.

You forgot to end the post with “fuck Trump” lol😂😂
JK. It’s getting very uncivil on here and I think it’s only gunna get worse.
@AthrillatheHunt Lol 😂. And yeah, unfortunately you are probably right.

You’re absolutely correct; this place has changed a lot since it’s inception. I wish there were another site that functioned similarly, yet void of the BS.
the long-form writing has been gone for some time from here. I'm not sure if it's become the sorta thing that just doesn't happen; if it's now the sorta thing done all in PMs, but the connection doesn't really seem to be a thing here anymore. and I'd love to say that I could be part of the fix, but the times they have a changed and I just don't have it in me to try to steer towards the shore, I suppose.

Political trolls indeed. Most of them don't know what the hell they're talking about. Many of them are so juvenile and asinine that it's impossible to carry on a civil conversation.
@AlienZipper Look who’s talking...🤦🏽‍♀️

@bijouxbroussard

No one asked for your opinion. You don't like what I have to say, ignore it and it'll be just fine.
@AlienZipper Pfft...

That’s why I have contemplated leaving myself.
@SW-User The first time I left a year and half ago, it took me three tries before I finally deleted 😅.
