I need your feedback.

*exhales*

Well, ‘need’ is too strong a word. I don’t actually ‘need’ anything.

*looks around, realizes nobody has made snarly bite-y sounds [yet]*

*continues*

Anyway… ‘Needs’ aside: I’m not typically accustomed to asking for feedback in a broadview/whole-audience kind of way, but I have a feeling there will be a variety of thoughts/feelings/ideas/responses depending on what kind of reader you are (i.e., Every post is a must-read versus I only read when we’re participating in the same meme versus Oh, I check in once every few months to see what you’ve been up to) and what your motivation is for visiting this site, so I’m going to pose a few questions.
