open request to talk, not a subtoot
Also, I’m opening up to talk if folks want to, especially ahead of a major convention.
I’ve lost touch with a bunch of folks due to lack of time and emotional energy over the past couple years. If you’d like to assess where things are, to ping me for a status update, or to conspire on convention plans, feel free to DM me.
