@judgedread I think a lot of it is folks just building their favorite WN abstractions or blasting impotent anger into the internet and it has little/nothing to do with reality most of the time. Misery addicts' tears taste the same as the shitlibs'. Lots to look forward to, though, if I'm seeing things right.
@DMA I'll get some food moolah to you in any way I can. Are money orders easy? I think I can go to a 7-11 and you can too and they use Western Union or something and it keeps our IDs safe. Hmm maybe not, I can't remember how they work. But I think we can get a bigger roar of support for you going because you are very familiar and sweet and we're getting close to Christmas and a lot of us are just not going to let you Ramirez without a legit xenomorph on your 6. No no no no no. Hang in there.
New skin for the old ceremony.
