I'm so grateful for the friends I have in this fandom, and the few pleasant conversations I've had with passing furs on here. You guys make this worth sticking around for. I've had to let some toxic people go and face the reality of my own behavior over the years, which hasnt always been stellar.yet I feel like I can at least own up to those things now. Where before I couldn't have. I havent always been nice or easy to be around. I've done shitty things.

I started to not enjoy cons and events as much recently, so having a few good friends around to still feel a part of the community here is nice.

There's been a lot of stupidly hard stuff happen in the past few years for me personally and feeling alienated by the fandom at times has sort of...cut off that escapism thing that I came here for in the first place.

Maybe I'm finally reaching the stage of being too old for some of this in a way. A lot of things are irritating about the fandom.but for now, I still have a small chunk of home in it with the people I can actually talk to. And who feel they can come talk to me. Thanks for sticking around and making the fandom a friendly place. Thank you for being a positive force in some of the shittiest times I've ever had. Thank you for commenting, faving, supporting, trading and buying from me over the years. I appreciate you ♡
