Hi Kim! Yes, I remember you in your previous incarnation. I remember we chatted agreeably about a few things together, back when you were an honorable vet of MB and I was a newcomer. Big time Congratulations on escaping that repressive JW stuff, becoming your own person and apparently leading your family to a more tolerant position too. That must've been tough.

Great to see you back again, with an eclectic list of favourites too! :wavey:

Hello. I used to post here forever ago. I had a lot of name changes, most some kind of variant of Conan. I think "somebodycompletelyrandom" was my final form before I left. I wanna say I started a new account in like 2016 and posted once but I forgot the login.

Idk who even remembers me but just to update:

Formally left the JW cult and, miraculously, most of my family eventually followed suit.
Things didn't work out with cult girl. Shocking.
I hated myself so much that I took a job as a political reporter during the 2016 election and into those early, chaotic Trump years.
The increased public awareness of and support for transgender/transsexual people allowed me to feel safe enough to come out of the closet at 24.
My name's Kimberly. I've been myself for four years.
I'm a comedian and content creator now. It's ****ing cool.
After a lonnnnggg break I'm really getting into music again.
I love this place. Looking forward to chatting about music as an adult as opposed to an edgy, depressed teen.

Pip pip. :beer: The emojis on here are still dumb.

Welcome back! It's nice to see you around again!

I remember seeing your posts, you Barbarian you.

I wonder if Dirt McGirt might make an appearance on the forum?

Hi Kim. Congrats on your escape, coming out and your return to Hell. ;)
I think I remember you - wasn't your avatar like a hippy guy with really long hair sitting in the lotus position (or cross-legged anyway) and playing or holding an acoustic guitar? Also, didn't you start one of the longest-running threads here? Checks....

Edit: no can't find it but the username someonecompletelyrandom rings a bell.

Welcome back anyway.

I don't even think I was here for most of McGirt's heyday. QWERTY probably wasn't even in middle school yet.

Hey you! It's nice to see you're still here too. Thanks for all your support back in the day, if I've never thanked you.
