Maybe a message in the migration message to contact a temporary email account could work - if he’s still looking there. It would be visible to all still on that message, so a generic request for a reply from him might be best.

Okay, I still had the migration message open in a tab and it’s still possible to edit one’s profile somewhat. So I put one of my burner e-mail addresses in the “about me” section.

Euansmith and BakaNeko had posted in the migration message, so I replied to both of them and said they could e-mail me if they want to. If this works they should receive a notification - assuming they still log into the BBS.

Anybody else who isn’t here already?

Under a new name? I didn’t find them when I looked?

@Obakebakaneko….we’ll have to ask them why that addition to the name!

Well, as the grain wholesale dealer with a sideline in poetry said,
‘a poster by any other name would post as sweet’.

Which raises the question, are we still “happy mutants”, or are we an amused assemblage of tearoom fanciers, or what?

Ah. tophat-biggrin I only managed to catch a few episodes of that one. I think our local public TV station had just a handful of eps.

A similar situation involved The Prisoner. Every time it was on BBC Yankistan, they only showed the ones I’d already seen. They only had like the first four or something. tophat-shrug

I think I finally nicked 'em from somewhere, or my BF borrowed the set, and we spent our evenings together watching all of them. What a brilliant, weird show!

I found the remade series of The Prisoner on a now long-kaputt obscure film/telly site, and despite having Sir Ian McKellen in the cast, and another odd & cool little community as its setting, it was pretty mediocre. An aspect of it I strangely found particularly irritating was the fast food places’ having only sandwich wraps, b/c that was the “founder’s” wife’s favorite. I guess it’s the

Yeah, I bought the box set of the remake, watched the first episode and left it at that.
Gandalf and Jesus, and they still couldn’t make it work.
Lots of cool old cars, though.

I’m in a Kafkaesque spiral. I went to Sus, and Euan is there but I can’t seem to find a way to direct message them. I don’t want to post a publicly visible message but I’m chasing my tail trying to find a private way to post. We’ve followed each other, so contact is made!

If you have a PM at the old place (and have not anonymized) you can reach out there…

That seems to only exist on the app, which I had not downloaded. It wasn’t visible on my phone previously but I am working through the app now and it seems promising.
