It was just a few friends getting together for an hour to chat. There was no conspiracy, and I don't recall talking about RP at all. Just touching base with folks we've come to know here, how's your life going, how's the wife/husband, love your hat, that kind of thing. No need to get our panties in a knot.
Bryan, I pick on you & Rob because I love you guys, and we don't talk nearly often enough. Selfish though it may be, it's a fact. No pressure, of course everyone does what they have to do, and what they are comfortable doing.
I have a full Zoom license & offered to set up the next call if that's appropriate. Being invited isn't pressure to participate, merely an invitation. Just another way to connect in these dire times.
Cheers
John, You know I don't mean to be an ice-machine. Panties are knot free.
I had a little bit of a point but maybe I'm not articulating it very well, which isn't all that new lol.
I'm glad that people are able to get together virtually. Anybody. Everybody. I think it can really turn into something cool. Even if veev is there. AHYUK!
Like I said, over thinking is my thing. Ask my close friends. Like a tripwire lol
I'm your friend & I marvel at the things that show up from your beautiful mind. I know that makes you cringe, it's part of your humility and generosity of spirit. A true poet warrior, as I like to think of you.
Circumstance, fate, and proximity brought us together. Pain, loss, art, and love bonded us. From the bitter ashes a brotherhood was born. Miss you.
Just to be clear I threw out that clique line to pay homage to the way things were back then...This is now and there is no clique.
I know. It's just that there's a lot of pain and isolation and extra alienation out there in the world. Heck a lot of it is mine from my point of view. Some things are by choice and some things have to be. I just don't want to add to any negativity if I can help it, not necessarily referring to a zoom-up. If naive then it's a choice. Conflict can get pretty cruel. I'm not down with it even though carried along with the tide. I'm going to go out swinging for sure. Hence, irony.

Coming together seems the hardest thing, these days.

I actually was working. But I have to be honest, I'm not that comfortable with this type of thing. Also I'm not that comfortable with exclusivity and reading some of the commentary made it seem or sound like that kind of situation. Maybe I'm misreading it but if there are opportunities to meet like that in the future I would hope that it wouldn't be an us and them thing. Maybe a talent show or something...best funny face contest or virtual horseshoes. Something... I'm probably over thinking it. That's my speciality. 'Cause I'm special...lololol ugh
Your logic excludes 'the gang', though. Otherwise, I might have pitched in, as well, just for curiosity. No big deal here... enjoy yourselves, and a happy holiday season to all!
My shadow logic perhaps. There have always been gangs or groups or cliques here. It's not so unusual. Many have met or know each other in the meat world. It's a pretty cool thing. But to say you're invited but you're not gets sticky if ones attitude and desire is to make peace and build and sustain a community and gets tricky when walking a perpetual tightrope as has been proven here in paradise many times over. I can be a public arbiter of my own attitudes and thoughts/words and no one else's. My personal judgements will have to be private. I'm an equal opportunity thorn on the rose...
I just used sticky and tricky in the same admonition. I rest my case. Lol
