Coach Gowron// I think I'll be going silent on this account for the foreseeable future. I'm not feeling very inspired lately and some of the responses here are making me defensive about something that is supposed to be positive. I'm going to step back for the time being. Thank you all. I'm grateful for the interactions and time spent with you.
ADHDeanASL@coachgowron I’m sorry people haven’t been their best with you. I’ve enjoyed these posts - thanks for taking the time to do them. 👊
The Gneech! Awww Yeah@coachgowron Thank you for the happiness you've brought. Best of luck to you!

@coachgowron Thank you for all the inspiring words Coach, and we await your return with anticipation.
LRRR 
@coachgowron THIS IS A DAMN SHAME, COACH. I AM SORRY TO HEAR THAT WE ARE LOSING YOU. THOSE WHO WRONGED YOU HAVE NO HONOR.
CAN I HAVE YOUR WHISTLE?
@coachgowron I'M GONNA READ THAT LIKE AS A YES. BOOYAH.

mybarkingdogs@coachgowron I liked your stuff too. Also, I feel like sometimes people on here (and I've been guilty of this myself sometimes) assume everything must be taken apart and hyper-examined...
when that's valuable sometimes, sometimes it really just leads to picking fights
Debbie Wade@coachgowron sorry that's been your experience. I've enjoyed your positive messages
kim d@coachgowron I'm sad to see this, I loved your posts. Take care.
NicTea@coachgowron I'm sorry this account isn't bringing you happiness anymore. Thank you for the time you put into it, it was deeply appreciated.
The ol' ALFer@coachgowron // Everyone needs to recharge, friend. You'll be missed but you certainly owe me no apology for wanting a break. Hope to see you back soon so ALF can continue to be the exasperating fool to Coach's wisdom.
How Much for Just the Podcast?@coachgowron you have posted gloriously and brought great honour to your instance! Qapla!
Magpieblog@coachgowron Your posts have been some of the smartest and most insightful that anyone has posted here on Masto. I'm sorry you need to leave. Take good care, and I hope maybe you'll be able to come back.
Joe Weiss@coachgowron thanks so much for the time you put into this. I don’t ever reply, but I’ve enjoyed all of CG’s insights. Best wishes to you and yours.
Samhain Night@coachgowron I’m so sorry you’re going, you’re one of my favorite accounts!
AutistiCritic@coachgowron A damn shame. The world needs more people like you, Coach - hope you don’t stay away for too long. 🙏🏻
Debbie Goldsmith 🏳️⚧️♾️🇺🇦@coachgowron I'm sorry you've been getting grief from some of the people here. I've always enjoyed your account and hope you will be back soon.
Llokalla@coachgowron A true warrior knows when they should take time to rest and recover from battle so that they can be at their best.

Catsnfats 🇺🇦@coachgowron so many of us will miss you, but you absolutely should take care of yourself! Wishing you a wonderful holiday season!
JunkyardTornado@coachgowron I enjoy your posts. But understandable to need a break or be done. Take care!
Valanha@coachgowron I will surely miss your words of wisdom and positive messages. There have been days where your words were the kindest for the day. Please take care of yourself, and I hope to read more of your posts in the future.
Joshua Doll 🤷♂️@coachgowron like they say in the airplane safety demos before take off, you can't help others put their mask on if you haven't put yours on first. Practice some self care coach we'll be here pondering kahless, and striving to be honorable and ready for your little slices of truths when you're ready. Like Tom Bodett says "we'll leave the light on for you"
Cameopilot@coachgowron It amazes me that there are people who would rip on someone who puts out nothing but positive encouragement. Maybe it shouldn't in this day, but it does.
I believe you are the first person i followed on Mastodon, so sad to lose your counsel, but glad to know that you have the wisdom to step back when you need to.
Take care, Coach!
Ryan Randall@coachgowron Thank you for all your posts and wisdom, Coach. May you feel recharged soon.
You have brought honor to your house, and to the Ty'Gokor Community College Coaching Program.
Many songs will be sung of your victories and encouragement!
Len@coachgowron damn. I'm sorry to hear that you're having a hard time, coach.
Just today I was thinking to myself how insightful and useful your advice has always been. Like, 100% hit rate, zero things I have not found insightful let alone disagreed with.
So, look after yourself and hope to see you back when you feel ready.
And I suspect this might not be correct for Klingon culture, but I truly do hope you live long and prosper 🖖
Mastodon MigrationVery sorry to hear that. Take care, and if you decide to return you will always be very welcome here. You rock Coach!
Powdertoast@coachgowron Be safe and well. Your wisdom has been invaluable.
Joe Vinegar@coachgowron just discovered your stuff. I mostly liked it a lot, I hope you'll feel inspired again soon and continue writing and sharing your encouragement. In the meanwhile enjoy your healthy time "off duty".
Forgot who said this, but it may fit:
"Do the best you can knowing the things you know. Then when you know better, do better."

stephen ryner jr. 🦉@coachgowron don’t let the turkeys get you down… but also don’t feel obligated to give endlessly until you burn out. Thank you! Be well.
Garrry@coachgowron youre great thank you for your posts! if its not too much trouble you could get a bot to repost stuff on a schedule, its always a little spark of joy to see you in my feed
Phangurl Di 🖖@coachgowron I can't imagine how anyone can take issue with your lovely posts. I consistently find them so inspiring and encouraging. I would really miss hearing your voice on the platform. Sending a virtual hug.
👩🦯The Blind Fraggle@Phangurl I second that.

BrisWombat@coachgowron hey Coach. I just want to say: thank you. You have made a difference.
Even if you re-used earlier toots I certainly wouldn’t mind. Take care of yourself.

Dr. Anna Latour@coachgowron I'm so sorry to hear that! When I need a motivational boost, your account is legit the first one I seek out. Will definitely browse through your archive in your (hopefully temporary) absence! Thank you so much for everything!
yomimono, still on land@coachgowron we’ll miss you, Coach. Thanks for helping us be the most honorable beings we can be.

How fucking sad is it that people are bringing their politics and personal hang ups to a discussion with a fictional Klingon holy man?
Like what is wrong with people?
Sometimes I'm amazed at how some people confuse compassion and inclusion with just wanting everyone to think exactly like you do about everything or you're literally the worst.

Thirteenth Worrier"Klingon Death Ritual." *Memory Alpha*, Fandom, 12/25/2023, https://memory-alpha.fandom.com/wiki/Klingon_death_ritual
Klingon death ritual
The Klingon death ritual was a Klingon rite performed during, or directly following, the death of a warrior. The Ritual involved opening and staring into the eyes of the dying individual, then bellowing loudly at the sky. The former served to observe and confirm the lack of recognition by the dying/dead Klingon's eyes. The latter served as a warning to the dead (presumably in Sto-vo-kor): "Beware, a Klingon warrior is about to arrive". Once the Ritual was completed, the body was unceremoniously
lunatic@coachgowron Enjoy your break - will miss your posts!
Nightshades 🌘& θΔ@coachgowron awww, I'm sorry, but I completely understand. I'll be sad to see you go, this was a fun account
Alexis@coachgowron Sometimes the bravest choice is to step back and reassess. Thanks for the help I never expected. 💙
Angela@coachgowron this is disappointing, I love this account
NullNoMore@coachgowron - please rest and restore yourself, and thank you for all the advice. It has helped me in a way that lasts.
Jessica Canady@coachgowron Take the time you need. If you ever want to return, we'll be here. Thanks for the inspiration, Coach. Qapla'.
sofakante@coachgowron sad to hear this. I always loved your posts. All the best for you.
エラン履恵 • Elán Rie 💉x9@coachgowron Thank you so much for the joy you shared, and I'm so sorry that the reason for your absence is such a painful one. I wish you lots of rest and success in your future endeavors!
bondolo@coachgowron Even the most righteous have detractors. The weak try to silence criticism, the cowards ignore insults. The strong welcome the test of their convictions, the brave confront adversity.

@coachgowron You have brought honor to the timeline and those that oppose you cannot take it away.
Mark Norman Francis@coachgowron As the great enemy James T Kirk once said, “First order of business: survival.” Glory to you, and your house.
David Matthewman@coachgowron It is important to know when to step back for your own mental health, and important to be able to. I hope you get the break you need. Like many others, I enjoy your posts and had just five minutes ago read your latest post and thought how glad I was that I had followed you.
BatHeart@coachgowron I'm very sorry to hear this, Coach. You are really inspirying and have brought me a lot of joy and power. May the many suns of all the planets ever shine on you and may you not be crushed by the Great Old One, when awakes.
AllSignalMustPass@coachgowron bummer, you’re ok by me! Thanks for putting forth the effort.
Nmyownworld@coachgowron I"m sorry to see you go silent, and really hope to see you return. First, you do need to take care of you. Just know that you have provided positive sparks of Klingon spiciness.
I don't know what you've had to deal with. Jackasses and fools can wear a person down. Be well. And, perhaps one day you'll also be back.
Crystale@coachgowron thank you for all your kind and positive messages 
Loch Nix@coachgowron self care is important. Hope you’ll find your way back.
