I Appreciate You

Yes, you. Not "you" abstractly. I'm referring to you, the human being reading these words displayed on your screen, read to you with a screenreader, transcribed to you in braille, or transmitted via a brain-computer interface. You.

If you are one of my friends reading, I appreciate your fellowship and kindness over the years. Even when you don't think I care, I'd like to.

If you are one of my family members, congratulations for finding my Gemini capsule! Please let me know next time we see each other. I'm passionate about the smolnet and would love to hear what you think.

If you are a fellow Geminaut, finding this post via Antenna or during one of your walks through Geminispace, I appreciate you spending your time reading some of my ignorant ramblings (even if it's just this one). Even more, I appreciate what you have shared elsewhere on Gemini: your gemlogs, your poetry, your politics, your passions, and your thoughts. They are invaluable. If you haven't yet, start a capsule and share its address with me. I'll link to you on my caproll.

My caproll

If you randomly stumbled upon this file in an old flash drive in a basement in 2100, I appreciate that you decided to take some time out of your day to read a 78-year-old text file. I'm probably not around anymore, so be sure to enjoy the last remnants of my existence on this planet. Make copies, if you wish. If copyright's still around, consider it in the public domain. If the public domain is no longer around, you have my permission to stamp all of my posts onto stone tablets and drop them on the president's desk.

If you are a bot who found this while crawling the Web or Gemini, don't feel bad. I know you're just doing your job. Try not to be evil with what you learn here.

If I didn't mention who you are in particular, I definitely still appreciate your visit. You're here, after all.

Whoever you are, you are a person, and you are reading this. That's enough. ❤

Have an amazing day, and share some kindness of your own.
