Yes.

Except James? He's been making games, drawing comics and writing stories that are entirely ageless in their silliness since the rest of us were in internet-diapers starting flame wars.

Ugh my God you're right. The only really thing I can think of is the approval to get out of the 4 map editor.

I mean, you can say hamsters, spam and all that is cringry, but you'd come off like a huge slimehole given that's just his uniquely kid friendly, charming sense of humor.

How dare he be so likeable.

*laugh* no I have things I look back on and cringe about. Maybe I just left less evidence of them on public forums where I can easily re-live the shame.

If I had a time machine and I could go back and talk to my 20 year old self would have some sharp words for my younger self. Relevant to the topic of this thread, I remember that 20 years ago, a friend of mine came out as trans to me, and I was not accepting at all. I lost that friend, and I regret that very much every single time I think about her.

Reading this thread makes me smile, hearing about people finding greater happyness with their own self identity. That is so important, and so special.

I am glad that this community has become a welcoming and supportive place, and thank you all for making it that! :)

Umm, I'll pass it on. She's in the Discord server but rarely seen here.
