I am wanting to familiarize myself with your site. As I indicated, what I wanted most when I started posting to Substack was a conversation. I didn't want to be the only voice. I want to know what other people are observing, speculating about, thinking, feeling, whatever. I am curious and eager and full of faulty or weak thinking. I get caught in language a lot.

Right now I'm trying to sort out what the site is about. It seems like there are several voices who post? and then conversations ensue as interest develops? Again, I am not not as familiar with Substack as I suppose i should be - I just write for fun and put it out there and always respond to any comments. But I have to figure out still what the tabs are about and what the organization is about and IDK - other stuff that I see but haven't investigated. Glad to have encountered you.

I hear you, and I call it the synergy of dialog. I just write for the fun of it too. I am also glad to have encountered you. Here you can ask questions on any post, and you will get an answer that spins a point of view on that question. Maybe it is not a point of view as a belief, but as a possibility. Ultimately it is you that has to sort the possibilities for yourself. I say you can't sort without trying. So experimentation is the method here.

I never care to know all technical features. I just get use out of what I do know, and then other things unfold also. In their time. Thanks for being here.

That's been my approach so far with Substack - use the functions that I know and let others fall in place. I look forward to being part of the conversation although I will say that I am a bit intimidated by the writing that I have encountered. I fear my comments will be unsophisticated but they will be genuine.
