Pondering...
I've been around here ever since 2011, I think. My Pro will expire in September, and I'm unsure I'll be staying around afterwards. The last couple of months I've been in an on-and-off relationship with Tumblr, both still admiring being around here for the things that float by and feeling that more and more of my old contacts have disconnected or moved elsewhere and it's getting increasingly overwhelming to handle all the channels in a sane and fair way, not just being a writer but also a reader, commenter, interactor. (The fact that Tumblr apparently doesn't like sending out e-mail notifications for any kind of interaction also adds to this, but that's another topic.) If that mood doesn't change the coming months, I might just be withdrawing from here altogether. I'm mostly at https://social.lol/@z428 (preferred) or https://bsky.app/profile/z428.eu these days which is where I generally do respond faster too. And I'm feeling both profoundly guilty and split up in all this, noticing my resources for being everywhere just wearing rather thin.
Sorry for the intermission, now back to the flow.
