I miss that @blanchy fella. Whatever happened to them? I heard they got stuck up a tree and are perhaps still entrapped there, to this day. Lucky they have a really long extension cable and starlink, or we'd all be royally fucked.
In really super depressing news, @lauralemons actually died - sure - this was before the time that HIVE forked away from STEEM, but I often wonder what they would make of the world today. This is a platform that gives so many people the ability to express themselves in ways that get more exposure (which is saying something) than other places.
I also, of course wrote about some of the names in my handsomely rewarded 9 years of loss post back in August, almost a month ago now.
I take it as a personal wake up call to ask myself - who are the hive faithful that I would be crushed if they were to no long regularly be a part of my following feed, or they grew dormant?
For me, that would be a small selection of users. Your cutting wit would certainly be one of those, but I just hope there are people out there that feel the same way about me, or that there are users that I somehow haven't discovered yet that i might feel the same way about in the future.
Until then, I wake up hoping that someone I care about hasn't given up on HIVE, their life, or writing.
😂. No getting rid of me. Sorry to hear about Laura. I did not know her. Thanks for the compliment. When are we having a few pints?? It is a good job I am immortal.
I do plan on coming to the UK at some point in the future to make a nuisance of myself on the Tube and at Immigration.
The last time I was at customs in the UK, I was asked "anything to declare, cash, prescription drugs, etc?"
I was on something for irritable bowel disease at the time - so I explained the medication and why.
"carry on mate"
So I did. I went into more and more detial.
The customs office insisted. "Carry on mate"
I kept going. I didn't realise he meant, GET THE FUCK ON WITH YOUR WALK, SONNY BOI.
But yeah, any trip to the UK will be a few more years away, will have to hit up @raymondspeaks and a few other of your sun-malnourished types to have a meal, an embrace, and a gentle "Get fucked?! - you're a real person? Not just a disembodied agent of the DHF hunting shadows?"
