Hi Almaember,

I suffer from wicked IBS (IBS can be like drowning in a desert - my longterm partner still doesnt get how helpless the condition can make you) and through systematic and institutional bullying burnout which cast a very long shadow.

As a consequence I know that its possible to be offline/inactive for hours/days/weeks/months/years and then *BOOM* you are back on again and back to yourself.

Infact, Ive been in what could be a 'wilderness years' that was pretty much masked through raising x2 children.At a personal level, the considerate aspects of Gemini encouraged me out of my own hole (anybody trying to build up a fingerprint of me prior to ~April 2021 will have a very hard time) - Gemini even secured me a research grant through NLNet. So personally I will be cutting Solderpunk a lot of slack and I will be eternally greatful for SP's impactfulness.

That's like if the descendant of an old royal family returned to a country that has been a republic for a long time, and trying to get control again.--Sent from my Android device with K-9 Mail.
