I am firmly in camp "self-nomination is a brave and fantastic thing to do and is something I will roundly congratulate you for because well done having that much faith in yourself". So - props for that.

Props also for your excellent demonstration of establishing expectations around commenting culture, which I attempt to emulate; and for your fantastically-curated linkspams, as ever, which I always appreciate; and your willingness to do hardcore introspection out in public. ♥
