Over the last few years I've come to learn something about myself. I'm fierce.

I'm fiercely stubborn - I'm fierce in will - I don't give up easy - I'm not afraid to say I'm sorry - and I "play to win" - whatever that means.

I'm glad I got this place here at Substack and that they essentially "offer it up for free" for somebody like myself who needs an outlet to express thoughts.

In goodwill, I'm an active participant here and I am a "paid subscriber" to almost all the places I read.

I don't want any payment for what I present and share here - I appreciate that Substack has created an environment where this is possible.

Now - I'm biased cause we all are cause it is part of what it means to be human, but regardless of that many months ago an offer was presented - "do you want to invest in the idea of Substack" - I thought to myself - hell yeah - why not....so I invested almost up to 90% of my limit being I'm not certified and such (about $2000). I really need to find out where that investment stands and I will, but let me say - I'm fond of Substack and I'm happy I have a place to share ideas and learn ideas from others. Moreover, my investment amount is actually less than what I have willingly contributed to others sharing here on Substack - seriously.

Now you know even more about me and I'm going to "pin" this post to replace the other which has been released.....

ps - I think 89 is the answer to the hexagon puzzle informed by the shapes above - but I still need to double-check....

pss - definition #3 please in interpretation - https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/fierce - just in case they change the numbers it reads as follows: "furiously active or determined"

You know there are some folks out there think they can show up out of nowhere and try to change the ambience of a place....it saddens me when this occurs, but I give them no heed and I'm not sure sometimes what to do next when harm comes out of nowhere unexpected, but at the end of the day what matters is some of us have principle and others evidently do not and some of us feel compelled to push our principle upon others proselytizing and others of us do not. So I'd like to think I'm in the camp of those with principle who do not have any intent to proselytize, but others seem intent on causing harm and at the end of the day the best ideas will prevail - will they not?

It sort of pisses me off somebody has "spoiled" this post in a way by tricking me with supposed intent when it seems all they were trying to do was get me to open up....that sort of thing has a way of curling up and forming into a snake that will strike unexpectedly and I'm just saying I am very upset with j malzone and the games he played with me here on a post "About Me" - does that entity not know that in these times of high flux that spells nothing good for business? I just don't know....I don't know about that, but my heart is heavy with it.
