But look, the main thing I’m grateful for is that we collectively managed to build a community on an obscure platform despite all odds and the naysayers from the walled gardens sipping their trademarked cocktails.
Obviously the egotist in me is happy for every upvote on my fuzzy lines, but more than that I’m happy to know that the endless struggle against the Behemoth of progressive-backwardism is a struggle that many of us share. While I may draw the lines, I believe that some of the work represents something we all feel, one way or another. I like to think the Mage belongs to us all.
And when the bots come, if they haven’t already, it’s not a fight worth fighting. And there will be a fair share of irony in them stealing the symbol that wages a war against them.
You’re too kind…
