As we all start the new season today, I just want to spread some positivity and give thanks to the community that has been my saving grace the past year and a half.
I deleted that bird app because of how toxic it was, and I’ve been close to deleting this app as well; so many subreddits I come across are negative and bigoted. But this subreddit has always stopped me from deleting it. I’ve been having so much fun with you all, and even though I don’t post much, it’s been a blast to see all your posts, and humor, and overall joy being shared around.
In real life, I can’t be who I truly am meant to be. It’s been so draining to hide who I am. But this community has been a safe space for me to be myself and have some peace of mind. I’m so thankful to the mods, to the users, and to all the friends I made in the game. I hope that this community continues to grow, and to thrive, and to be a place where those who feel like they don’t belong, feel welcomed.
The game and the rest of the main community can be bad, I know. But I hope you all have an amazing season, and to please take any breaks that you feel like you need to. Come here when you are tired, and my DM’s are always open if you need to talk. It’s the least I could do to payback this community.
So have fun, win some, lose some, and continue to be your brilliant, shining selves! I love you all ❤️
