Just mentioned in a DM that part of my experience of #CoSo has been bittersweet precisely because, after years of thinking I was just a tedious weirdo for wanting to talk about subjects that no one else seemed interested in (i.e., subjects that weren't trending), and in much more *careful* ways, too... it was so easy to find my people here.

*So* easy!

So--it's been bittersweet to realize how much time I'd lost to toxic spaces.

But I'm glad to focus on the "sweet" part of that equation now. 😊
