As far as I am concerned, the issue re: the sexual harassment of @Sir Lüc is now closed, in that Breneir has actually paid a penalty that means something. The "official boycott" has run its course and I will no longer oppose Breneir being considered for Government jobs.

On the other hand, if Breneir keeps saying things like this:

it will show he hasn't learned anything on the broader question, meaning that he will not rebuild bridges among Talossans who aren't married to him.

Let's run through this bit by bit:

Quoteshame and name-calling can cause the person you are asking to reflect and change to become defensive especially if they have suffered bullying in the past

This is true. Other Talossans have suffered crippling bullying in our lives - even crippling homophobic bullying - and some of us may have coped for a long while by becoming self-righteous verpas unable to admit error, believing ourselves entitled to "dish out" what we received in our own lives. But we got better, or at least tried to.

The initial offense could have been purged with a quick withdrawal/apology to Lüc. Refusing to acknowledge and repair the initial offense meant that others had the choice of (a) impunity; (b) escalation. The path of escalation imposed costs on everyone; yet, it was the correct choice.

Quite often, when we lack insight, we attribute our own motivations to others.

This is a newer WikiMedia feature, and we'll work on making this possible throughout the wiki.  Once we update, we'll also need to update the CSS styling, but I have read that this is not too hard in the MediaWiki documentation and already have ideas about how to fix it.

Cool, I'll get to read the wiki at night (though I prefer dark mode in general but only on my laptop).

Tomorrow is the submission deadline for Volume 5 of the Book of Cuisine. Hoping to publish next month. Please send in your delicious recipes.

The Chancery acknowledges the same, effective after the closure of Clark business for this month.
