Closing down hexbear for a scheduled downtime isn't okay

I totally realize most people are going to agree with me here but I feel compelled to say that closing the website for a scheduled maintenance wasn't a very kind thing to do. We have seen TONS of posts from vulnerable populations talking about how this website is a source of support and humor in a dark time. Irony and dirtbagism aside, taking away that support with warning is not okay.

You can say I'm being silly, or humorless or reactionary. Whatever. I love pop girlies and I love this community. But sometimes I come home after dealing with ableism and our nightmare reality all day, and this website is one of many things that make me feel better. It wasn't a good feeling to find this website closed for the sake of upgrades. Maybe that's laughable or pathetic. But for me, it's true.
