I'm sorry to hear that, it is a truly awful thing to be embroiled in a conflict like that, especially when it's in a community you care about.

Yeah, I'm sorry your community turned out like that.  :'(
I'm mostly against resignation letters, myself.  Its just more fuel to be used against your absent self, and not likely to change anything.
But if it gives you closure, its fine no problems.

Bought a bunch of foam storage sheets for my minis the other day, turned out none of the boxes* I have are the right size to fit them into, so I've got the sheets lying around my room while I wait on bigger boxes to arrive. Left my door open for about a quarter of an hour while I had a conversation with my mother, in that time the dog went into my room and ruined two of the sheets. I have decided to buy a door spring to close the door automatically behind me. This will not be great for the cat or tortoise's ability to wander the house freely, but at this point the dog has made it clear he can't be trusted with access to my room or any of my hobby materials and I just can't be bothered with my stuff being wrecked anymore.

*Mostly under the bed storage boxes, not really designed with foam trays in mind.

It does give me some, and it shows to myself and to them that I'm not like the owner who just dips without saying anything... I felt like I owed people an explanation for why I was going, as there would've been a lot read into my wordlessly leaving anyways.

I won't say that the message in itself changed this, but I did manage to keep in touch with one of the admins that I quite liked afterwards, despite us technically being on "opposing sides" in the conflict. So there's that.

I have three canker sores at the very end of the soft palate in my mouth, and it is painful to swallow, and will likely be so for however many days it takes to go away.

cinnamyl alcohol, citral, citronellol, eugenol, geraniol, isoeugenol, limonene and linalool.

This is the most fake sounding ingredient list I have ever seen. Who comes up with these names? Cinnamyl? Citronellol? Eugene-ol? Limonene and linalool? Somewhere I feel i crossed over into a Dr Seuss poem

Probably better than trying to apply a topical anaesthetic via finger or cotton bud.

Evetything that is an alcohol derivative (additional OH group) of a chemical that has a conventional short name (xxx) will be named liked (xxx)yl alcohol or (xxx)ol.    This is because the name of the chemical group (component) corresponding to (xxx) is often called (xxx)yl, and it's followed by what's attached to it (an alcohol group). For example, the alcohol derivative of ethane is ethyl alcohol or ethanol. The name of the compound that gives most of the vanilla flavor is vanillin, with group name vanillyl. The alcohol derivative of vanillin would then be called vanillyl alcohol or vanillol.

Apparently a component of cinnamon has the name cinnamaldehyde, so called because it is an aldehyde, and cinnamyl alcohol is the alcohol derivative of that aldehyde (via reduction). Eugenol is apparently another component of cinnamon.

From what I remember limonene is a very nice organic solvent you can extract from citrus rinds!

Scriveeehhr, you wouldn't reverse-engineer a cinnamon from booze! That's a clear violation of intellectual property rights!
