Oh wow.
I forgot that I wrote this.

This parable really takes some of the sting out of just having the bus station shut down. I kind of wish I’d wandered over here years ago. I won’t say I don’t miss my pedant pendant but the tone set by the parable is real nice. Thanks for having me!

Is that the one who keeps muttering something about a locked safe in his closet?

Well, hello everyone! Didn’t know this place existed until today, so will head over to the Arrivals Lounge next!

Hi, OWYAC here; I’ve just landed. Is anybody monitoring this? My avatar is always a version of Marquesa Luisa Casati; this one is linked to my email, and it’s different than the one I used on bbs.

I remember your BB avatar.
I could never tell if you were looking over the top of your glasses or if there was a split-screen horizontal eye thing going on.
It was a very good avatar.
Anyway, wotcha!

Thank you! The original photo had been altered so that the Marquesa had some “split screen thing going on”. She was a bit of a rebel in her time. I’ll see if I can change it back to that; less confusion for people if the avatar matches the name that they know.

I’d never heard of her.
Crikey, what a life!
from wiki:
She astonished society by parading with a pair of leashed cheetahs and wearing live snakes as jewellery.
You go, girl!

I restrict myself to rescued house cats, rather than cheetahs.

Hey! I’ve been quite a while on the road.
The closing of the other place happened at not a great time for me personally or online and I wasn’t in a great place to have the rug pulled from years of constant chats online. So I wasn’t sure if I’d ever sign up for anything again like that. I had already torched my social media accounts and it hadn’t bothered me.
Anyway, I had a different Tove Jansson character as an avatar (they were only there as I’d used it in work that week for a joke about something and next thing you know it’s been years and that little one is who you are to lots of people!) and a longer version of my name.
I’ve wanted to tell you about all the great movies I’ve watched that you might have missed and be in solidarity in these dark times. Look forward to reconnecting and connecting.
See you round!
