For that, I would like to thank the people who reached out to me in kind messages after I left: Tiberius, KevinM1, Whateverist, Abaris, Emjay, Robvalue, Parkers Tan, Nestor, and Tartarus Sauce.
And also Minimalist and Rexbeccarox, who messaged me with some words of encouragement on that day.
Thank you!

Minimalist sent a theist encouraging words? That's news.

This might be a better fit on the #2 thread? (Also, I hope you realize she is married and not all that frisky.)

I was pleasantly surprised when I exchanged a few PMs with him and got to know him better. Believe it or not, he's actually a good guy.
