Was gonna reply on the Olis post but see it closed. So this’l do.
That smell, I think that sheep u r carrying’s butt is too close to u’r nose. Terry opinions are like nether orifices’, every got one and it can often get close enough to waft. “Illegetimi non carborundum” Trad Admin folk, known as the burden of responsibility, it was never going to be easy. U will not please all the people all the time but make such decisions in good conscience for the collective good, as u must and do.
Now the numbers r growing I imagine the collective time u’all put in service toward the benefit of us who make up this little gang is significant and at time intrusive personally, that will not change and the buck has to stop somewhere TG. Batter up!
The reality is as arbiters u make a difference for the better. I think u’ll find the percentage of those who appreciate good governance and what u all do is way far and above those who perceive otherwise, tho difference of opinion is a healthy concept in reality, for us all. Please don’t take this to heart as the freedom we enjoy here is well tempered by the policy and procedure u have put in place, collective experience n oft welcome wisdom and bye the healthy respect one for the other that has developed along the way. Never mind a few ****heads.
Perhaps there’s good reason for the 35,ooo odd members & growing. There’s a certain adhesiveness in common values. I tend to think this indicates more people are finding that here. More so than the actual disservice of governance, corporate avarice and roughshod ride we find ourselves subject to, that is often our lot, in the outside world.
