        To be perfectly frank, I can relate… Not gonna give up trying, just that I’ve never had much use for optimism given how things have been going overall.

            Nope… zero. It’s just what I feel is the right thing to do, regardless of results. And, on a more self-serving note, I will at least die with a clear conscience knowing that I did all I could do to follow and respect my principles, to be at least a quasi-decent human being.

              What did they say? They deleted their account, so we all feel like assholes trying to figure out what you are replying to.

              Don’t feel obligated to respond, you aren’t the “c u next Tuesday” in this situation

              Edit: go figure, they didn’t delete their account, just whatever they said. This is an incredibly META thing for someone with an ‘umbrella emoji as a username’ to do.

                Oh, they said just that there has to be a hint of hope somewhere in the back of my mind, otherwise why act as such.

                Edit: to clarify, nothing malicious or unbecoming.

                  Why delete it then? Umbrella only supposed to protect us from wet.

                  Not say anything, not delete. Shield.

                    No idea! If I were to guess, I’d say privacy reasons, leave no trace, but that’s speculation on my part.

                    A pity, though, that we live in times where conversations get downright deleted due to privacy concerns…

                    Edit: not blaming the deletion, blaming the times, to be clear.
