An open-ended community for asking and answering various questions! Permissive of asks, AMAs, and OOTLs (out-of-the-loop) alike.
In the absence of flairs, questions requesting more thought-out answers can be marked by putting [SERIOUS] in the title.

I got into an argument with my ex, and I came out of it feeling totally defeated and completely worthless; like nothing I ever said mattered to anyone. I deleted my first Reddit account and all my internet forum accounts the same night, since I had nothing to add to any discussion anywhere.
When I finally climbed my way out of that despair pit (and that relationship), I made a new, half-ironic username on that theme. "ad acta" is Latin, and it literally translates to "from the archives", but in common use it was a phrase meaning "irrelevant". So Vox ad Acta is "Voice of the Irrelevant".
