That's very generous of you. I've been trying to raise the quality of my posts precisely to win over kind folks such as yourself and rebuild my shattered reputation in my home-away-from-home here. It doesn't seem to be working so well though... the Ignore wall is a harsh one, and those who choose to shelter themselves so are certainly beyond the reach of frail hands such as these. But putting them aside I am at a loss. Although aiming for smaller, snippy posts would certainly have a greater response in the divine social media algorithm, those are the kind of posts I could make on another account. When it comes to this being I need to speak with its particular purpose and thus speak at length. A lot of words means I have a lot to say on the matter, but it seems length is consistently rejected... I don't understand accusations of pretention because I don't know what that means. To attempt to affect greater importance than I have is beyond me when I am uncertain of any importance of my own. What am I to do? I am sad and lost, but cannot bring myself to silence the voice dictating what to write. In the end, I may end up having to scream into the void, for ten-odd years, waiting for someone who will listen without hiding awkwardly within the crowd. I've spent enough time talking to plants already, but I can do more. Perhaps a tl;dr will help after all though I don't like them too much myself since numerical scores and summaries tend to draw engagement from those who skip the rest to read the conclusion despite the elaboration being more important than the conclusion, like showing your work on a math problem...I mean we're all reading the same sad story so, i wonder what that might tell about us.
That said, i always try to give everyone the benefit of the doubt. Or to put it in other words, i "try" to not judge people by just a couple of posts, or by just a couple of misfired posts, if you know what i mean. Everyone can have a bad day or two.
He'd be the first on my ingo (igno) here, and i'm a bit undecided.
Some people here seem to read the intirety of his posts, and i wonder why.
tl;dr: Let no bell toll!--lest her sweet soul, amid its hallowed mirth, / Should catch the note, as it doth float up from the damnéd Earth. / To friends above, from fiends below, the indignant ghost is riven-- / From Hell unto a high estate far up within the Heaven-- / From grief and groan, to a golden throne, beside the King of Heaven.
