You know, I pay attention to, and in return get noticed by, people from a lot of different cliques and tendencies on this site. And I guess I flatter myself with a self-image as some aetherial Watcher, above it all. Until I check people’s notes and see they have likes from people I’d categorized as coming from an entirely different part of my network.

Birds of a feather, I guess. If I managed to find them, and pay attention, and my heuristic for paying attention is “is this a clever poster, who says interesting shit I wouldn’t have encountered otherwise?”, I suppose I shouldn’t be surprised that they’re clever enough to find each other, or similarly inclined to recognize novelty and quality.

Well, whatever. Message being: everyone who’s seeing this, pat yourself on the back. Who’s a good poster? Whooooo’s a good poster? You are! Yes you are.
