I'm not going to link to it

Because I think doing so could have the undesirable effect of facilitating hostile attention on a community I like but I will say Artcomm is making me consider adding "everything is worse with doctrinaire polyamorists" to my list of tags. oh, except it's too long to be a tag. Bother. And so is " if you were more evolved you'd agree with me."

I have some clue of what I'm doing, but what I'm doing is specifically what works for me and a specific few other people. And what's generalizable is both very general, and hardly poly-specific: get involved with people you respect, treat them in ways that show that respect, and do your best to communicate with them about things that matter.

My motto has become "I have a hard enough time running my own life, I'm not about to start running anyone else's".

Nicely put. I will offer specific people advice if they ask. (I'll offer more people advice on minor, factual things, like "what's a good train to take to Chinatown?")

Yeah, I'd pretty much totally agree with that. But it didn't scan as well. :-)
