It seems that a.s.d. is dead. It is shocking to see how rapidly internet culture can change. Just a few years ago this group was still at the level of several hundred posts per month. But now -- just a couple of dozen posts in the last 3 months with none in the last 2 weeks.
I probably won't post anymore - so I want to take the opportunity to thank anybody who is still reading for all of the help that they have provided over the years.
This truly was a special place for over a decade -- which is an eternity in the online world.

Yes, it is very sad to see that asd is probably gone. :(
I don't plan on leaving though. I check every day and try to post
regularly. Asd is such an important part of my life, I can't imagine
being without it.
That said, thanks for saying 'goodbye'. I wish more people would do
this and not just leave. Well, really I wish people wouldn't leave,
but if they are going to. It's nice to know it.

Perhaps they're in the same boat with us: too busy to check in every
week or simply without much to say.
Ah, well. If there's anywhere on the internet like asdis we haven't
found it.

Hi scattered,
hi RC (whose replies we saw on the other server where we cant post
anything ...)
hi all whoever all might be
yes it is sad. :-(
Even fo us who have for quite a while been no more than an occasional

Yet we will keep an eye on asdis and maybe one day people will come back?

be more regular, as even when I don't post I check in frequently. Also,
ASDiss has been a haven for me in extremely difficult times of my life.
I will continue to check in, and hope that I can somehow be somewhat

Dearest friends,
I've not forgotten you all. I never will. I'm "missing" only because I can't read newsgroups with any kind of reliable
consistency anymore. All I can use is groups.google.com. (I'll never forgive them for wrecking dejanews :( ) But I think
of you all often.
I've spent a lot of time since I've posted on asd living in a nice Steampunk community on SecondLife. Almost no one
knows there that I am multiple. It's very nice being me without having to explain anything to people. And it's wonderful
being someplace without the others (Luthe and the Leutenant don't ever go there.)
But I do miss you all awfully much.

hi there
it seems writing regular here on asdis is something many people would
like to be able but cannot - the usses definitely included. so ... we
are thinking: maybe regular is overrated? as often as possible or even
whenever one (or many ;-) feel(s) like it would do?
We sure hope asdis is not yet dead as it has been a seafe and helpful
place for many and a place to find real friends for us, too

Re: ASP - RIP?.....with various replies :)
Hi, Jill! Luthe directs me to immediately tell you he sends his warmest regards. Actually I reworded his greeting a
bit - he doesn't talk like that :) How are you and your family?
Hi punk! How are you? And how is everybody with you? You'd love the steamlands, especially New Babbage. Have you ever
read GirlGenius? It's an online comic. There's a bunch of jaegers there that are the coolest craziest nonpeople you'd
ever want to meet :) And you get to fly. You'd like it. I miss you guys too.
And hi again, jp. I talked your ear off in another post so I won't go on here. I hope you can find it if you look for it.

Yes. I used to have a very different life/career before having kids.

I haven't been in SL as much lately, although I recently did have to
relocate from Caledon Dundee to Caledon Stormholm when Desmond Shang
(Caledon's Governor) decided he needed to close down Caledon Dundee.
That relocation meant I had hours of fun setting up my new space. I
don't do breedables anymore, but I do have a turkey who wanders my
garden and an owl who perches on the corner of my roof.
Apologies to non-Second Lifers for that bit of in-talk!

lots of times, we go blank if we try to talk about "important" or
"deep" stuff. think it drives our t nutz, tho she does her best to
remember it's the dissociation and tries not to get frustrated.

relate and don't know what it's like I could explain for you.
(scratches head) Makes even less sense now I think upon it.
I don't know if I know how you feel or not. I do know how to not talk

I don't know if I know how you feel or not. I do know how to not talk
about me.

I like your attitude! :) Much more productive than hyperventilating.
Now I'm reminded I need to go buy superglue. Yes, that kind of
expensive week.
I'd hoped our week would improve after the low point mid-week. It
really did. Drastically. We still have the expensive breakage to deal
with but even that seems more manageable and less scream-inducing and
frustrating.
Maybe the improvement's partly due to being so convinced it'd occur
that I selectively pointed out any positive events for proof. Maybe
not.

it has lots
discovered that when we're really really careful in who we pick to try
to connect with, then getting hurt isn't guaranteed. and connecting can
happen at a whole variety of different levels or intensities with
different people.
that's actually been a pretty amazing discovery.

We can do surface-level connecting with some people. Eventually it
gets harder and harder finding stuff to discuss because we're boring
and/or my mind goes totally blank.

can understand this
maybe eventually you'll start to judge yourself using new rules instead
of the old ones?

However.
It's been so so so long and when I close my eyes often I'm still right
back there.
Everything I do I still evaluate whether it's dangerous due to their
reasons. So many funny stories (and some "funny" ones). I don't even
know how I'd try stopping.

Haven't posted here in over a year, I think. I do pop in once in a while but it has gotten so difficult for me to do much between my "stroke brain" that makes it hard to remember what I had for lunch, my failing eyesight and inability to sit at the desk for very long due to circulation problems in my legs. This place has truly been a life saver for me for over a dozen years and I would hate to see it fold! I hope all is as well as can be for everyone! I will try to stop in and post a "ping" or more at least once a week when I am able. The idea that someone might have heard about this place or may have been here long ago and now find a need to be here again and find it not in existence makes me feel very sad!

I feel bad, now! I just sort of... vaguely wandered out, because my interest patterns are like that with most everything, and I lose interest and wander off to somewhere else. (I do often eventually wander back, though! ...But it's been a rather long time, hasn't it.)
I've mostly been on Tumblr, since. I'm friends with a handful of lovely systems, a couple of whom plans are in the works to live with! But other multiplicity communities are... different. Not better, not worse, but very different.
But it's nice to be understood and not have to explain about things.
