Things are getting better, Marie - thank you so much. And yes, MB is always a welcome distraction - especially with people like you here. Thanks again.

I also hope that Lucem is OK; and looks like Dianne has not been active for a while. I hope she's all right.

Oh wow, mixed emotions here. Glad to see you're okay ribbons, but sorry about your troubles. Also sorry I haven't got around to sending you my stories yet, but it's a problem linked to my religion: I'm a member of the Church of Lazy Bastards, I'm sure you understand.

If you still want me to send, let me know, but if you're up to your eyes I more than understand. It'll wait. Meanwhile, you can always PM me if you need to talk.

Hey, you! Of course I understand; and please, send them whenever you can and whenever you're ready. No rush and I'll always be looking forward to reading them.

Thanks for being a friend and always making me laugh (just yesterday I thought of something funny you once posted here - something about the unlikelihood of a publisher falling out of a plane and crashing into your bedroom - and I broke into hysterics.

Ok I need to ask this.

You all remember Dayna right? I heard that she died. I was wondering if anyone can confirm this.

adidasss · 02-01-2022, 10:59 PM

I didn't know her but I think that's Sansa/Hermione/Paloma. If yes, then the answer is yes, sadly. :/

Oh and I see Yac still comes around sometimes, congrats!

That's really sad to hear.

She didn't like me at all even though I tried to befriend her and considering this was during my "anti-SJW" edgelord phase I can now see that she had a good reason not to like me. She blocked me on Facebook a long time ago and that was the last time I've heard from her. I really wanted to patch things up with her, it's a shame.

I'll always be grateful to her for one reason, she had pretty cool taste in music and got me into some great post-punk, she even made me a compilation of punk/post-punk bands with female vocalists that I still have on my iTunes to this day, it's got stuff like The Slits, LiLiPUT, Delta 5, Ludus, Family Fodder and Essential Logic all of which I've delved deeper into since then. I still think of her when I listen to any of those bands.

That actually happened last week!!!

Oh, wait. Was that a dream? Maybe. I get so confused. Who are you again? Where am I? A pound of best rib steak please and four lamb ch - what do you mean, this isn't a butcher's shop?

Hermione legally changed her name before she died. Her legal name was "Hermione" and I believe "Dayna" was a real reminder of a life she was trying to get away from. I know this because I was young and didn't really understand gender Identity issues and refused to call her "Hermione". She stopped talking to me because of it.

I think the least I can do now that she's passed on is to remind people that she is to be remembered as "Hermione".

adidasss · 02-02-2022, 09:30 AM

I don't understand, both Dayna and Hermione sound like female names, how does gender identity play into it?

This is just a post about agreeing, really, because these comments have essentially been made by others already:-

Very good to have you back again, ribbons. I'm sorry that your family has once again been going through difficult times, and i hope your niece and others will be ok.

Yep, Dianne has left without a word afaik. I also hope she's ok and comes back soon. She's my South London compatriot and co-contributer to the Architecture thread.

Great choice of name, Queen Boo! congrats.

That's terrible that Hermione has died. TBH, on MB we seemed to dislike each other on sight, but it's shocking that her life should have been so short.That is such a terrible waste for anyone. She used to be in touch with DJChameleon, and I think they met a couple of times irl, but of course DJ has become another Missing Poster.
