Yes yes yes! Even before you’re out or just dipping your toes, the amount of comfort this provides is amazing and does a lot to make you feel normal/like a human.

Aw it’s mutual. 🤗 I was recently wondering, “where has my intellectual compadre reluctant_commenter gone?“

Aw, I've missed you too :) :)

I've been gone partly out of disillusionment with s/lesbians, and partly out of just real-life stuff. I'm super stressed over finances right now and I'm in an area that was heavily impacted by the wildfires. The past couple weeks have been a nightmare honestly.

Yea s/lesbians got especially weird and hostile for a bit and it’s still a little off. So many people coming in with an agenda and an axe to grind.

Real life is more important. I hope your finances get worked out, and I cannot imagine what it’s like living by the wildfires. How is this real life?

Yeah, I might check back in on it in a few months or something. But it is still nice to see people like you and others over here :)
