Just a friend. (I’d give him hugs.)

Right now, it’s scarlet and violet. Before that, it was legends Arceus. Before that, is was Sword and Shield. Before that, it was Sun/Moon. Before that it was X/Y. Before that…

The Pokemon TV app, lol JK

I was so excited the first night I couldn’t sleep.

Espurr~!

Hah, I got that reference. “I’m not crazy. You’re the one that’s crazy.”

But did Meta interview John Mastodon? /s

I once was at a party with nothing but gay Republicans. 🙄

I feel * checks wheel * Ashamed and Isolated today.

I stayed home from high school one day in the 90s and told my mom I was gay and suicidal. My parents then proceeded to forget about the suicidal bit and freak out about me being gay. They took me to a shrink to give me meds to make me not gay. I went back into the closet but slowly came out gradually. Things slowly, eventually, got better. Especially for me after I went to college and actually met other gay people. I think seeing gays in mainstream media really helped my parents come around. Twenty years later, I took my mom to pride.

OMG, I forgot about calling to get the time of day.

That’s amazing.

That’s true.

Is there a Bear Community yet?

I am still alive despite the depression, suicidal thoughts, and psychotic episodes. Don’t take just existing for granted.

Good for you!

Not everyone had the benefit of being around in the IRC/XMPP/Icecast/BBS/Usenet/etc. days.

Dies and turns into a pile of greymuzzle dust.

I wasn’t born early enough to grow up with the rise of internet forums.

It was…interesting, LOL. A wild west frontier.
