We didn't do too badly this week, though, did we, CoSo?
We hurt, we spiralled, we snapped, we went down obsessive research holes, we blocked and muted...
But mostly we held true to our humanity, no?
We held space for as long as we could in hard cases, & gave grace for stumbles along the way.
This is one hell of a fine crew.
However it comes, I'd be honoured to split a table at the Restaurant at the End of the Universe with all of you.
(I just hope they have waffles! Er. Pancakes! Or both!)
Now that's the kind of get-along thinking I'm talking about! ๐
@MLClark I for one would be most honored to be seated among the many that hold space at this table shared. We all have our stumbles along the way, but we grow and learn from each other.
That's the rare gift, isn't it?
Not to be loved for what we can do for others at the best of times, but to be welcomed into a genuine circle of fellow-striving.
Thank you for holding space for others' humanity here, and for bringing your own rich self to the table, too. ๐ Your journey enriches the world.
@MLClark If my journey and trips along the way help others span the bridges they need to reach in their own, I'd say it's a worthwhile venture by miles. <3
Eesh. No waffles for Alfred!
Sorry about the block, though. I haven't blocked anyone here (except one spam account?), but I respect people putting up the mental distance they feel they need sometimes. Better than seething passive aggressively in our presence, eh?
@MLClark All in all, it's been astounding so far. If this is coso in a bad week, imagine what we're capable of in a good one!
Agreed.๐
LOOK OUT UNIVERSE!
We're going to humanize the heck out of you, whether you're ready or not!
As far as I'm concerned, you deserve the honour of sitting closest to the syrup at our table. You've helped me a great deal as I struggled through this week. ๐ค
And you, me, Lise. โค๏ธ Thank you for your steady, gentle counsel, and your presence with so much. It really helped me remember to breathe out.
So... maybe we'll share proximity to the best syrup seat, yes? You're bringing a proper tin with you, I presume? ๐
Is there any other kind? ๐ โค๏ธ
Are you Hotblack Desiato in this scenario, or one of the other members of Disaster Area? ๐
The misfit roadie, maybe.
But most likely stage tech and/or joint roller. I couldn't take that fame. Definitely wouldn't hang onto the wealth, kopeng.
*makes it typhoon*
Good call, Bosmang! ๐ Wealth at the end of the universe, much like Hotblack Desiato's ride, are such wild but also perfectly on-point additions to the series.
I swear, at this point, some of the people in this world seem like they'd hop from a lifeboat back to the Titanic just to get insider trading tips from the one rich guy accidentally still stuck on deck.
Yep. The marriage of greed and delusion.
@MLClark .. or cosmic pizza..
Definitely! And heaped to the brim with cosmic pineapple! ๐
@MLClark I was gifted the Hitchhikers guide to the galaxy box for my birthday, I'm not sure how I would cope the live specials board experience at the Restaurant at the End of the Universe.
@MLClark Waffles! But pancakes will do in a pinch.
