@Rasp keep connecting. please. in the measure of the possible reach out. meet others. i spent 27 years in a hole. plus minus a few. others were luckier faster. no one says you can't take a few more.
if we were closer, i would not doubt a single fucking second and just go and give you the biggest hug ever. and be irl friends! you're hella interesting! i really wanna see owl house and amphibia because of you! and would be delighted to watch them with you irl, again, if we weren't half a globe away.
you can ask me to give up on you, or call me naive or shortsighted. but i will not give up on you.
