ALRIGHTY FOLKS!!!
I& #39;ve got a cool announcement to make about a neat opportunity I had recently. I& #39;ve applied for Twitch Partnership!
And while this isn& #39;t my first time (I& #39;ve applied before and have had the numbers before) it certainly feels like the right time.

Now why does it feel like the right time? Well I wanted to talk about that.

I did to really hone what I did.
But the main player in this feeling like it& #39;s right time, comes from a more intrinsic place. Over the past three years a lot has happened. I started getting help and therapy in regards to my dysphoria and trauma, started HRT, found true love.

Found and made friendships that I wouldn& #39;t trade away for the world. I found peace in myself, self-love, self-care, I found who I am as a person, behind the screen. Found my voice.
I feel like a happy and stable human being who isn& #39;t being influenced --

or manipulated by another individual for their gross benefit.
Now. It& #39;s an opportunity I feel like I& #39;ve earned with my own two hands alongside my community. As well as all the other cool things that are in the pipeline.

And to my incredibly loving and supportive boyfriend, to my amazing friends, mentors and community, you& #39;re stars the light up the sky when everything seems dark and bleak.

Also, I feel like I need to tag @avalonstar in this thread. Because he& #39;s been nothing short of family to me. More than just avocado star-senpai to me. He& #39;s a dear friend who I& #39;m so glad I started to talking to again.
