Your contributions to the forum so far have already been valuable.
Your reaction to Tisha’s post seems extreme and it seems you have read things into it that are not there in an objective look. You also were less than polite to Tisha. Is it possible you were feeling irritated for some other reason when you wrote the above, and that impaired your objectivity?
If Jasmin is selling you the putatives I don’t think there is any problem with you buying more. Your motives do indeed seem different than most, and it is improbable that you’re going to get bent out of shape or demand refunds on some putative that doesn’t work in some previously imagined way.
I’ve found the data you’ve provided so far to be valuable. I want you to know that so you can factor it in with all the other factors as you decide whether to continue to participate in this online forum.
On another topic, and just for your consideration. Other important factors that you aren’t reporting (or recording?) in your data are the age of the responders and the setting. Responses seem to vary with age, and also seem highly setting dependent. At a smoky bar at midnight the reactions may be quite different than midday at the supermarket. I just pass this along for your consideration in your explorations, which I am betting will continue regardless of whether or not you continue to participate on the forum.
I think you may have misunderstood what Tisha was trying to convey. This can happen all too easily on the internet when communication is not face to face and vocal tone and body language is not present to help us decode the meaning of others. That’s why I overuse smileys.
I’ve been here a while and I have never known Tisha to be anything but pleasant. She is trustworthy and honest and, as she says, if she has something to say she comes right out and says it very clearly.
I really do think this is an misunderstanding growing out of the difficulties of communicating on the internet. I’ve done it myself - even here - and misread the tone of a post.
Try reading the post again a couple of times with a more positive mindset.
It would be a loss to the site if you should leave over a simple misunderstanding or misinterpretation.
A special warning is now in force concerning the alignment of the Moon and Uranus. This is perhaps one of the most disruptive and emotionally unsettling alignments on the monthly calendar and coming so soon after the Full Moon assumes yet further magnitude.
The alignment will commence around 16:00 GMT, or (11:00 EDT) and will last until around 09:00 GMT (04:00 EDT) on the 2nd of August. Frequent visitors to this site will know that Moon/Uranus alignments, although of relatively short duration, are capable of extremes of mood and circumstance and are often the catalyst for major crimes such as the Virginia Tech shootings in the USA, earlier in the year.
Likely traits to arise from Moon/Uranus alignments include restless and changeable emotions with highly strung, galvanic moods with over excitable feelings that may all to easily turn to extremes of behaviour. As such there may be an emphasis on the very drastic as even minor problems can become the source of major confrontation with the possibility of upheaval within the family setting. In addition Moon/Uranus alignments are capable of producing bizarre, unusual, or out of character moods and behaviour, with the possibility of eccentric or even perverse means of expression.
