back in 2020 you covered everything that this year's substack crowd is just discovering. when i would go to the park with my laptop in the hellish summer of that year, maybe when i was the only person not wearing a muzzle in a 10 block radius, you gave me hope. suspect i am not the only one.
either there are 20K DOD trollbots out there, or maybe we're reaching critical mass. guardedly optimistic.
I subbed because I thought you were somebody else I used to chat with on Twitter, but haven't regretted doing so for a single second! Congrats on this huge milestone!!!!
Wow. Good for you Tessa! It's hard to stick with a theme and not be tempted to change just to get subscribers. Stay true to yourself and your convictions and keep writing from the heart. I have a feeling that nothing is quite "over" yet and in my gut I believe we'll be needing your beautiful perspective just like we did during the "pandemic". Tho, to be honest, I hope my gut is wrong. Will people finally say enough is enough next time or will they simply comply themselves into complete bondage and sentence generations of people to bondage as well? I think we're going to find out. And, gratefully, regardless of where the future takes us, it's good to know you'll be here shedding light, truth, and love.
Thank you, Rob!! Your words make me very joyous :) I, too, think that it is not quite over yet, 2020 was probably just prep for the "reform." Time will tell, and I always hope for the kindest trajectory for all of us!
The odometer in my old Volvo is stuck at 198,712 miles. The best part is never having to change the oil! (badda bing badda boom). I wonder how much numbers here at Stubstack are being massaged, so 20,000 may be right or may be much fewer than actual mileage.

Thank you!!! Your words make me so happy. And I remember that 2020 :))
I think there is only a very small percentage of DOD trollbots on this page (and I want to keep it this way :)
agreed! huge hugs and love!
Ditto. Beacon of insight, sanity, laughs and tears, not mention great writing and conversations!

That is funny, and thank you for subbing, I love our conversations!!

You’re awesome Tessa! You were one of my first subscriptions. Is that YouTube posted supposed to be a video? It didn’t play.
Thank you, Boflys!! I am grateful.
Yes, it's a video of a song. Hmmm strange, it plays for me and I think it played for a bunch of people as well. What happens when you click on it?
It’s a beautiful song, but no video.
A, sorry, yes, it's a photo all through, not a music video. I misunderstood your question!
And thank you!!
Lovely, lovely - haunting - singing!
Thank you, John!!!
Congrats, Tessa! Well-deserved milestone! I appreciate you and your writing very much! Cheers!
Thank you Deb!! I appreciate you back! xoxo
I am so happy for you for your subscriptions!
I am a bit sorry that you are fighting your battles, i would rather hope that you were learning from your challenges.
I am so interested in what you have to say!
Thank you, Flynn, I am most certainly learning, a lot of what I am writing is a result of learning from the battles :)
Congrats! 🎆🎇🎆🎇
