For the Beautiful People Who Read My Blog

I've been meaning to write this post for a while, but was worried about being perceived as egotistical. In spite of that, I've still wanted to write it because I'm regularly surprised by the sweet emails I get from the people who read my posts. When I first started this blog, I had really no idea what would become of it. I mostly just wrote for catharsis or fun. The blog eventually grew, I changed how the site looks several times, I made quite a number of friends on here who are all lovely people, and I began to see that people actually liked what I said enough to personally reach out. I got into some beef with some rightoid weirdo a year ago and someone who came to that person's defense called me out for "picking on the little guy". Like what? It's Bear, dude, not Youtube. We're all little guys here. I realized recently that I actually have people on my email list. Which to those of you who are subscribed to me via email, I really apologize. I had no clue anyone had subscribed there…
