Shun the 2020, shun, I say.
A year and a half ago, I could have eviscerated him with my thoughts. Now I can barely hurt his feelings. Things used to be so much simpler.

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.

Ann, that's a ferret.
I'm torn between "shun 2020" and "how do we know 2021 is going to be any better?"

I have to believe 2021 will be better. Of course I confess to being a determined optimist at my core. But, we will have a new president, and we will get a vaccine for Covid. That has to be better.

What is even happening?
so are we just shunning 2020? cause I don't mind
In the larger sense? LET'S.
In terms of this thread, it doesn't change every year (although it usually gets closed and reopened). Goodbye and Good Riddance gets a new thread each year. I think we were waiting for the stank of the election to subside before we did that one.

Welcome back lurkers! Come and play! You are missed!
I think Goodbye and Goodriddance opens December 1st.

I could well be wrong, and won't search for the real answer, but I think Delurking is a yearly October event in this same thread. But I am good with people delurking whenever they want to through the year. Delurk already!

Yes it was usually opened once a year.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Anyway, lots of people are just nattering and that seems fine!

I feel like I've delurked a couple times and I may no longer be eligible. Is there an amount of lurking time that qualifies you for delurking, do people think? Not a rule, obviously, but a guideline to keep me from popping up every day with "Here again! Did you miss me?... Not yet?"

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Hi, Emily! I delurked twice, I can't say anything. Welcome back again!
