I've been out of the abbey two days, I've beaten a lawman senseless, I've fallen in with criminals. I watched the captain shoot the man I swore to protect. And I'm not even sure if I think he was wrong.

Punishingly Intricate

Did your dad not know or didn't want you to know? (Also, there's a new genealogy website??)

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

Hi, Maggie! I am so glad you introduced yourself.

Toddson, it is always excellent to see you around.

Yeah, new genealogy website?

I can't even.

It was one of those "we don't talk about it" family secrets. So you have no idea who else actually knows (everyone?). Ugh.

It was new to dad and to me, I'm sure all y'all are up on it. MyHeritage?

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Hi! I'm never really lurking, but I'm never here as much as I'd like to be either, so the last day of delurking month seems like as good a time as any to catch up?

I'm still in NC, with cat and spouse and too many computery things. I still have a uterus, although it does fuckall for me and I wish it would shut the fuck up. I don't currently have a German Shepherd, although they're my heart-dogs of all time. The aforementioned cat would be less than thrilled if I brought in a giant pupper.

I'm a year and a half into the current job, and it's finally restoring confidence that I know what the fuck I'm doing there. Also, have a team (for a while there, I was "lead" with nobody else but me in my particular skillset. so, yeah.) Current job also sends me home with ridiculous fabric reserves. Don't all tech startups do that?

The unfortunate events of the last little while have made me think long and hard, a lot of which doesn't really belong in this particular post, but the tl;dr is: you are my people, and this place remains an important part of my world, and I love you.

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love

Back archaeology*, amych. I feel the same way.

(This was supposed to read "Back atcha," but I'm sure we can all agree the autocorrected version is much clearer.)

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Archaeology all y'all.

I adore all you motherfuckers so much -- PMM.

the tl;dr is: you are my people, and this place remains an important part of my world, and I love you.

What she said.

What is even happening?

Cindy! Holy doodle, nice to see your electrons here (after all, it was you and Cash and Allyson who kinda pointed the way for me here from the Bronze alladem yeers agu.)

Oh John Sweeden! Say it soft and it's almost like praying! Josh Wheedon!

How you doin'?

Glad I lured you to our den of iniquity. I hope you and yours are well.

I guess it's time to close the thread. Don't be strangers, delurkers!
