    Sorry, but experiencing loss is a necessary part of loving and being loved. It may be that I’m getting older, or it may be that I’ve lost a LOT of loved ones, but I look at it this way:

    Picture everyone you know- as a light in your life. Some of them will be brighter, and some, dimmer. Some will start dim and then brighten with time, some remain constant, and some, sadly will fade away with time.

    And when the lights of these loved ones slowly begin to flicker and then fade out one by one as you age- rather than scream out at the darkness, instead, remember how lucky you were then, and are now- to have had their light in your life at all.

    Love can’t exist without loss. Never deny yourself one just to spite the existence of the other. Doing so flies in the face of one of life’s most precious gifts…







  • Political Memes mod here. You had a post removed because it broke the rules of the community, which is not really a big deal at all… However, you chose to then get angry and report a bunch of other people’s posts that did not break the rules and therefore you were banned for report abuse- which IS a big deal.

    If you had simply just messaged one of us and pointed out where you thought you were wronged, I or any of the other mods would have had no problem hearing you out.

    Here is your modlog in the event that you have forgotten how things went down.

    Hope this helps!

    EDIT: okay, so we’re doing edits now? Okay. Let’s make an edit!

    So this is what they messaged me after their spam was removed:

    … and before I could even respond, they had already submitted multiple reports on posts that were all well within the rules- and relevant to the community. So they were slapped with a temporarily ban for report abuse, which- if you take a look around, is usually a permanent ban in many communities. We banned for one month.

    Yet now, cruising the comments of a post in a well known and popular community and coming across this nonsense accusation randomly- three months later after zero interaction with this person in the same amount of time- is apparently considered “stalking” and….

    “powertripping?”

    I’m sure it’s pretty clear to see what we were dealing with, as well as the reason for our actions.
