Read on Twitter
So, a little reflection segment here:
The end of this month will be my 4 year anniversary on Twitter. It's surreal to think about the time I've put into this stuff and how different I am from first starting, but I wanted to celebrate a few things.

1st: holy shit I'm almost at 17K followers. When I first started doing these jokes, I didn't expect anything to come out of it.
When I broke triple digits I was thrilled, and then when bigger accounts started RTing...
Thank you, thank you all.

2nd: I haven't kept the best track of this, but by my estimate, I've put about $1.5K back into the TTRPG community by hiring artists for projects and backing Kickstarters.
It's always been a mission of mine to try to give back and this is one piece I feel really awesome about.

3rd: Speaking of giving back, I'm also proud to say that I've helped with multiple charity projects between drives, streams, and personal donations. Roughly $5K generated over the four years.
Honestly, I wish it was 10x that, but I'm still learning how to effectively do things

4th: Personal life (outside of all the 2020 fuckery) is doing well.

5th: Amazed that people were willing to listen to the shows I put out and read some of the things I wrote.
Was able to start a small business with friends who shared a passion for content creation. Haven't broken even yet, but we'll keep trying!

I think it's important to look at things like this every now and then as even small victories matter.
2014 was the hardest year of my life, and I was certain that I was checking out for good, but seeing what I've accomplished since and the people I met, I'm glad I stuck it out.

As someone who's gone through dark times, it can get better.
Make sure you give love to those around you and always remember to maintain your mental health. Especially nowadays.
You matter. If you're having trouble with it, there are people to help you realize it.
Thank you.
