I miss some people on here from years past

@dirge we can do better if we choose to do so

@pituitarypendulum sure, but the default isn't a good place. active work put in to be better. which is good to know. maybe a little not great to be the case.

@dirge Many don't want to work to be better

@deathfairy I see plenty of positive movement 🤭

@deathfairy ok

@deathfairy It's not hard for me it's just my own perception.

I come and go a lot here most of the time I just leave quietly

@pituitarypendulum When I take breaks I find it so hard to want to be back. There’s like this “ew” factor that’s hard to get through and the comfortableness that was once there feels nonexistent. It takes a bit to let go of what was and open yourself up to creating a new spot for yourself amongst the misfit toys.

And this time of year the difficulty out there is palpable. This season is hard for many and it shows. You can even feel it in the air.

@PerfectionOfTheHeart You articulated this perfectly

@pituitarypendulum Yeah, there’s not much reason to. Almost everyone I knew has long since left.

@Reject I left for a long time snd I'm reminded why

@pituitarypendulum They made a lot of bad decisions with the site and that I think that is the biggest reason people didn’t stay. Now there’s so few of us left there’s like nothing to make it worthwhile.

@SwampFlower It doesn't matter

@Ambroseguy80 yup

@Darksideinthenight2 I'm a different person now than I was back then
