In recent years, I've gone through a semi-retirement, full retirement, back to semi-retirement, and most recently, I've more active than I've been in months. I've pretty much accepted that my knowledge of this site and ability to fix things that are objectively wrong and/or outdated will never allow me to retire permanently, and at this point I'll be going in and out in terms of my levels of involvement. I'm still here and will respond to messages as soon as I can, just don't expect my level of contribution to be as consistent as it once was.

TL;DR: In the words of James Dennis Hamlin, "Hell, I don't even know anymore." --Bcschneider53 (talk) 04:54, 8 September 2024 (UTC)
