@LlamaMountainStudioArts My friends could have walked away from me when I was a hateful little Republican MAGA shit.

They didn't though.

I will be forever grateful they tried and tried until they found a way to reach me. It would have been easier for them to walk away. I was "toxic" and full of poison but that wasn't all of what or who I was. The hate and emotional charge was just a bubble wrapped around me.

I was still in there, just lost and angry and confused.
