Vector, you're great and you stay in touch. I'd insert the rest of the heartfelt goodbye but I'm secretly hoping you'll be back but sad cause that might imply I'm wishing bad things, but then also confused that "the forum" could be a bad thing, especially since I'm here a lot. Self reflection, I avoid it. Anyhow I like you and you're great. Once more, you rock.

As for happy, the fact that they printed this:

I never worked for legal aid, but yes. I have had the crazies say the admiralty flag thingy. It did not go well for them.

Well. I seem to be leaving again, in a sense.

I'm not going to be around as much anymore outside of the Flight of the Twelve Behemoths and Book Club threads (and occasional posts about creative projects), because I'm trying to build a happier life for myself offline and spend more time creating and learning, less time consuming, and all that jazz. I really just can't maintain the intensity of my involvement here and do the things I want to do with my time, and I've come to see that the frequency of my posting is destroying my ability to write well. At some point, I stopped cultivating deliberation. Frankly, even writing this very carefully, I feel like my message is being distorted through stylistic exigencies. I've spent most of the evening going through my tumblr and twitter, deleting stuff, unfollowing people. The aesthetic of transience is wonderful, but I don't think its practice through the internet is very good for me.

Still: Y'all have been great. Thanks for the years, and years, and years of happy memories.

(As a footnote, I don't seem to have PTSD anymore. For those of you who have been considering going into therapy, I had an extremely poor experience in the first place that resulted in a. A highly unethical asperger's diagnosis by an unlicensed practitioner and b. Nearly being medicated for depression before anyone bothered to try figuring out why I was depressed. If your therapist isn't working for you, go and get a new one--but if you've been thinking about therapy, there's probably a reason for that. Find someone who understands you. Stick to it. When it works, it's worth it.)

Good on ya. Don't be a complete stranger. *Internet hug*

Truean:
I actually just finished reading this and was going to post it so you could see. Glad you found it.

[Bauglir]

I half-expected that you wrote it, Truean. >_______>

It's sad to see you go, since you're one of those people whose been part of this forum for as long as I remember. over the years, your posts have taught me a lot about feminism and what it's like to be a woman in the modern world, you've exposed this forum to French classics (which we then proceeded to MST3K the shit out of), and it's just generally been good to know such an awesome person as you exists. I'm sure you'll go on to do bigger and better things. Or, maybe smaller and humbler things; don't let anyone tell you what sort of life you should live, including me, in this sentence.

And I'll second you on the value of a good therapist. Mine helped me get through a lot of problems I had growing up, and I probably would be farther along if I had listened to more of her advice sooner. But the progress I did make was because she understood me so well.

Wait....who's going to be my Sims nemesis now?? 

[Arx]

I haven't interacted with you much Vector, but heartfelt good wishes from the other side of the oceans. May things always improve for you!


Concert this evening. Messed up the first show, but absolutely nailed the second.

Plus, taped glow sticks onto some friends so they could dance in the dark. It was absolutely incredible.

Goodbye and good luck, Vector. Live long, happily, with lots of love and laughter. Adios! c:

G'bye, Vector.

Alas, poor Vector! I knew her, Horatio...
