It's really nice not to have to litigate basic concepts or to have to gear up for some big ol' slapfight because I'm expecting the other people in the comments to be any kaleidoscopic arrangement of chauvinism.
There's so much I hold back on in more open spaces on the internet because I just don't want to deal with the bullshit so I shut up as a strategy to mitigate this.
I think it says a lot about this community and its culture, as well as the mods, that the space draws out more from me and higher quality contributions than most other spaces online.
Ye.
