Nope. Look down and find a key labeled "Delete".

Do what you gotta do. The subject line was well-marked indicating that
it was a musician thread. Yes, it wasn't tech writing, but I believe
there's more to a resource like this than talking about mundane work
stuff all the time. This is the stuff that builds communities,
connections, and friendships. and THOSE are worth your weight in tech
writing topics.

Agreed. And last time you said something, I did not agree. We can be a
refreshingly rambunctious bunch.
