>>14478729Jokes and personal attacks blur everywhere on this site, and sometimes we retcon things done on impulse backed by emotions we're ashamed of in hindsight as the former. No-one can keep it straight. No-one's entitled to kindness, but we notice it when it's gone.

I won't get over the loss I don't think. I'll move on at some point, or I won't because I can't. I post The Thin Red Line sometimes. This taught me the meaning of the line "If I never meet you in this life, let me feel the lack." Think I'll go back to sleep now. I feel very unwell.
