In the early part of 2015, a group of geeky pilgrims departed the home they had created in another place after being hounded and persecuted for who they were and what they believed in.
@Leigh had prepared the way, having scouted out a new land where a peaceful people, themselves refugees from similar places had deigned to create a small community on the distant shores of the interwebz.
Soon, myself, @Stickgrappler @MRobinson @El_Varaco @None So Blind @RedDragonUK @BWS and others began our treacherous voyage through the digital byways and landed here. Rather than be met with scorn and derision, we were greeted with open arms and set about recovering from all we had endured and helping to build the community alongside its founders.
Today we give thanks for that welcome and for giving us a shelter to elude persecution. We celebrate the first official Thanksgiving together in site history in memory of our journey and welcome other travelers who may find their way to our beloved community.
