That was still a very heartfelt reply and I appreciated it. I don't think you came off any way at all other than passionate

Please don't talk down to yourself. Learning new things is inspiring!

Your comment made me realize ~~I had an id10t whoosh moment here. I didn’t realize~~ wombats actually pooped cubes. ~~What a dummy.~~ Thanks!

♥️♥️ Your comment just struck a chord with me so I wanted to ask you to not be so hard on yourself

Aw shucks…thank you! When I replied I had an inkling that I might be missing an inside joke or a meme or something, but I got spun up on how cool the Borg cubes were in Sins. I had no idea wombats created cubes irl so yes I did learn something and appreciated that. My self-inflicted aspersions were more in a good natured way, but I appreciate your comment. This is all light stuff in the scheme of things and I have made far more severe mistakes in life with decidedly more significant consequences. Some of those were very tough to rise above. They still humble me.

Thanks again, I do appreciate you and your reaching out!
