"Did someone say "croissant"?!

Just popped in to remind you all that love is > than either. Love you all." -Terry

May you all find water and shade and never forget what a special community this is. I have been blessed to be a tiny part of it as long as I have.

...That other honor was, of course, also being your Tweeter of Chaos these past few years. Through Puzzles of Time, Trolloc Valentines, clues dropped (some found, some...not), secret trips to Jordancon and much else, you have been and will always be the best fandom, statistically or otherwise.

So today this little gai'shain must say goodbye and stumble off into the Three-fold Land. Thank you to everyone who has been so kind and welcoming (and patient) to me over the years. It has been one of the two greatest honors of my life to be your gai'shain...

I say "had" because every gai'shain must some day discard their robes and rejoin society. I worry that I now have kept them too long and risk being da'tsang for doing so. I know that I have already brought toh to those around me and will only bring more should I keep these robes.

I apologize that my toh vortex consumed you, too. I have toh for your toh.

A self-fee (I am told it is called) with me and the digital poster on the way in.

I got in! I was only allowed to sit on the floor in the background but I am in!!!

I was in there less than 30 seconds when I caused a massive popcorn explosion. I have toh, @sulingoshien.bsky.social.

Can you see the gai'shain line in the background?

The security guard's response when I asked if I could queue with everyone else. I guess my reputation proceeds me.

I was told that the gai'shain line would be marked by a puddle of urine and I think I found it.

As close as I was allowed to the real line.

Oh, no. Have I NOT been humble to someone somewhere? I have toh to them. Can I ask who and I will rush to meet my toh, even if it means leaving London.

I really deserve so much worse, I got off quite lucky, really.

Got thrown out. Again.

Oh, Sarah Sedai doesn't want to run into me. Nobody does, but especially not her.
