I for one hope you don't go, Ben. I look forward to your inputs, whether I agree with them or not.
As for P/R, I get it's not for everyone, but one man's meat is another man's poison. I find it helpful and, in a way, therapeutic, to put my thoughts down on "paper". No one HAS to read what I write (though it's always a benefit to READ it if you're going to comment or critique on it). I rarely talk about this stuff at work or at social events, mostly because there are other things to talk about. I do talk about them occasionally at home, particularly with my daughter, but less and less now that my dad has passed. It is what it is; I don't quite get the "block" (or "ignore") feature myself; seems kind of arrogant and narrow-minded to me, but it's also not my call how people live their life. But I also make time away (primarily weekends; there are times I wake up and think "I have to post this" and figure, if it's still in my brain on Monday, then we'll see what happens).
