    I've been looking for a place that's heavily moderated to keep out the idiots/jerks/homophobes/small furry creatures from alpha centauri. (They can't even type.)

    From what I've seen this is a civil place. Except for the dancing banana. Why is there always a dancing banana?

    Anywho, I am a man, married, two kids. I'm also bisexual and in the closet to everyone until recently. The only person who knows is a queer woman who I've known for a long time, but have become better friends with in the last few years. I enlisted her help for getting started on coming out. (In a fun twist the first person she came out to - other than the girl she was dating - was my wife.)

    I needed to expand my support network though, as I fear I've been rather mentally unstable lately and burdened her with too much of my own emotional baggage (and yeah, she has enough of her own). In fact I have deep anxiety that I damaged our friendship, but this isn't the post for that.

    So hi! And yes, once I start typing I sometimes have a hard time stopping. Yay ADHD on top of depression/anxiety and dammit I'm doing it again.

    So hi!

    Freaking bananas.

    Welcome Brill Bruiser!

    :dead: <--- I think it's odd this is an option, but I figure this banana panicked when he realized he forgot his massively useful towel.
