i've always had a very hard time ""finding my tribe""" both in online spaces and irl (or at least since, like, puberty) and i just want to say how genuinely happy being here makes me. i know i/we joke about validation from strangers a lot but i actually think theres something much closer to real community and real support and real care here and i just think that's really beautiful and i'm just so grateful that we 're all here tryna make a better internet home for ourselves :blobkissblush:
