<div>"Tony knows I didn't have a knife."</div>

<div>Bullshit. How would I know you didn't have a knife? Your attitude in the space has continuously been extremely hostile. You bring scuzzy disruptive people into the space. I told two people last night about the incident & they both replied, "I'm not surprised [that you pulled a knife], he's brutal." That's just about verbatim.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>I'm not trying to make myself the center of attention, I'm trying to make shitty behavior on the part of yourself & others the center of attention, so it will hopefully be dealt with, since I alone obviously lack the power to resolve it.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>As of today, I officially don't care. I've reconnected with the big beautiful world outside Noisebridge. I will be in the space sporadically for the next week or so, then going North for a break. From that point on my relationship to Noisebridge is going to change, from a drug addiction to a healthier, less intimate, more sustainable relationship.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>So, since no one else seems to care about this issue, I don't either. Maybe knife fights are just the thing we need to mix it up a bit. I've got several knives myself for prepping food in the wilderness & self-defense (if need be). Have fun, everyone. I still think NB is a great place. I'm coming in later today to see if I can laser cut a couple things in time for a meeting I have tonight.</div>
