Aurelia, skipping a bunch of posts to say, You can start a midwestistas group yourself.
Thanks Java cat. I've just been making things more difficult than they need to be today. Pay no attention.
Whoa. Good myth.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Huh. AFAIK, I'm the only woman on this board who may or may not have been naked in Oxford, Ohio. Weird.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Even weirder, I couldn't find us googling that, but Bubblegum Music Is The Naked Truth came up on page 3.

Jesse, did my snail-mail ever reach you?

Ooh, I think it did, but I lost track of your board name vs. your real name. You live in Chicago?

Shit's all sorts of different now.
What was I thinking? What monster have I loosed into our world?

"I keep to a strict diet of ill-advised enthusiasm and heartfelt regret." Leigh Bardugo
Sorry to xpost, but I can't remember where I read the most recent Jen K left because of X thing....
I know that some people say Jen K left because of X or Y, but in the absence of her coming in to explain, can we not continually bring up the reasons she left? I'm sure Allyson being kinda a bitch was part of it. But I sense, and from David's comment I infer, that it was one of a few reasons. So I am weirded out that we are attributing motives to her without her presence especially since there is no way to confirm the reality of our assumptions about those motives.

Not having has never been the thing I've regretted most in my life. Not trying is.
I think that sounds like a very reasonable suggestion, Kat.

I would also like to "second" Kat's comment.
Can we please not bring up Jen K to support or refute any arguments around here? Pretty much none of the people who have brought her up as an example of anything were directly involved in what happened, and really have no idea what all was involved in her leaving.
Allyson was involved, and has a right to comment, and when she does so, she speaks only for her end of things, but anybody else should only ever speak about it to the extent they were involved, if at all.
And this also serves to illustrate why bringing up nameless lurkers in support of an argument is so frowned upon and reacted to so poorly - any interpretation of someone else's unspoken position is invariably hopelessly polluted by the perspective of the interpreter.
