I've been thinking about this for a while. Like, 'several years' quite a while. I know I've been "dead" since 2016 or something, but I still anonymously poked my head around every now and then just to see what was going on. I just... chose not to engage, and I think I finally realize why. I made CSR when I was at my worst. I'd been trapped in a bad home situation with no job and no way out. I was seriously contemplating suicide at the time, and ultimately I finally admitted to myself that I needed to come out to my family and transition or I wasn't going to keep my sanity for much longer. Doing this in suburban east tennessee was not easy, but I'm in a much better place now - happily married, even.
I know some of y'all had issues with me, and I apologize. Thinking back, it was never personal, even if I seemed like it was. I always knew CSR was flawed, I just think I didn't want to admit it at the time. I mean hell, I walked away from it, and from here. Despite doing that, every now and then I can't help but to think back to this place and wonder how y'all are doing.
I mean, it's been 10 years. Is everyone still alive?
