Welcome to our fourth annual Reverse Festivus!
Here’s what I wrote in our inaugural Reverse Festivus in 2021.
It’s been quite the year. Quite the few years, in fact. So much loss, so much stress, so much anxiety, worry, stress, fear, anger, pain and rage. (Yeah, I added stress twice, I think it deserves double-billing.) But some really good things, too.
And in 2023 (after The Apocalypse)
So to get us started with Reverse Festivus, I want to say how grateful I am that we kept our community together, how grateful I am that we got our site back, how grateful I am that we got our history back, and how grateful I am that we did it with all our relationships intact.
“So much loss, so much stress, so much anxiety, worry, stress, fear, anger, pain and rage.” 4 years later – Is this Groundhog Day?
I am still immensely grateful that we don’t have ads on Balloon Juice. That was a classy move and a leap of faith for Cole, and I’m so grateful for that decision.
Anybody else up for joining in on reverse Festivus? The holidays are mostly behind us, maybe you can pop in and tell us what you’re thankful for.
Or not.
