Hit my first 1,000 followers on X

Honestly, I didn’t expect to enjoy it this much or for the platform to feel this much like my place. I’ve met a lot of great people from all over the world there, and some have already become friends.

There are fewer of you here for now, but I haven’t forgotten about you. I can post 50 times a day on Twitter, and dumping all of that here makes no sense. I’m still figuring out what’s actually worth sharing here, but there’ll be more.
