I saw that, and I like that a lot. I know I’m further to the left now than I was when I arrived, and the BBS had a lot to do with that.
The older I get, the more inclined I am toward revolution against the thieving upper class.
”I was there, at the dawn of the third age; it began with the Humans, you know.”
I’ll be alright, thanks for asking. My work at BB (which is a 20-year labour of love, not my day job) continues, just my volunteer work (yes, moderating the BBS was not a paid gig) is over.
The BB community measures time in decades, and it was really important to me that I got as many of you as possible lifetime subscriptions to BB, given that we don’t know what the world is going to look like in 5 days, let alone 5 years. I wanted y’all to have options. That’s the most I could do.
It’s the end of an age, we’ll see if the new one can surpass the one that came before. I owe it to history to try and make that happen, but I wanted you to know I’m also lurking here, and to thank you for the hospitality.
As far as I’m concerned, you’re more than welcome to stop by when you can.
Like tekno said over there, if anybody can make the new place work, you will. I can’t say how much I appreciate what you did for us all, and me personally.
Not all the memes I make use fluorescent green lettering, just most of them.
Found this 'un on tumblr:
Oh, do I have memes to share, but they might be better off in the Kinda Commie Memes thread. I’ll get to posting when the dust clears some.
You are ALWAYS welcome here…
No, that’s scheduled for Wednesday.
I’m out and about in public right now. And the time to reply is now. And I hate crying in public so I’ll keep it brief.
You made a wonderful place that for me a whole lot of other people outshone the main attraction. I didn’t know it was possible to have a community like that online.
Thank you.
We’re all emotional, but I suspect none of us as much as you are.
We’re all weeping at the loss of a long-beloved companion, but you’re the one who’s been forced to deliver the final kindness.
I can’t speak for everyone, but I see you, and I empathise with you, and insofar as it means anything: I’m here for you.
Thank you for all you did. You did a great thing with the bbs.
It’s looking like it’s done. No reply buttons on the articles I checked at random.
HA!
Sekhmet always does as Sekhmet pleases, ahem barring Ra’s getting her shitfaced, that is.
