Hello everyone.
As many of us here, I am an ATS refugee. I used to be a more or less frequent poster back there, right until 2017 when the first Trump administration started. The site then became too political and partisan for my taste. The whole "Q" debacle, the increasing posts becoming decidedly and stridently anti-immigrant (borderlining on racist) and the utter "you're with us or against us" tone is where I tuned out. The site just became too politically toxic, to the detriment of the conspirational and scientific undertone that first attracted me back in 2009.
I then became a more or less frequent lurker, checking now and then the Language of Vampyr thread, the UFO, Predictions and Metaphysical forums mostly, with a pepper of Covid and anti-covid vaccines threads occasionally.
Anyway, I was lost for words when ATS shut down and witness so much excelent material lost. I have been lurking this new site for a year or so, and I find it closer to what brought me originally to ATS, so I decided to give it a go once again and create a new profile.
It is great to reconnect with many of you and I wholeheartedly hope that this new site stays as far from toxic politics as possible, since that is such a huge turn off (at least for me).
See you around!

There is one rule that I know of, babies. God damn it, you've got to be kind.
