Welcome!!! I’d like to think of myself as a writer but truth is I just dabble (then decide everything I wrote is crap, drop it, wait a bit, start a new project, repeat) and I would love to discuss introducing dev bits in non-dev prose. I do that pretty much all the time and at different levels of sneaky. Also I happen to be a childminder too and can attest floor cheerios are absolutely a fundamental part of any healthy diet! Ok another childminder will get this... today my kiddos were eating snack and one kid kept being like "Miss [Cilantro], look" and as soon as I would turn around she would try to balance a cracker on her nose and fail EVERY TIME. I have never been so annoyed at somebody for pursuing a dream in my life.

Wow, one week on PD and I've had so many interesting conversations and have learned so much about myself. I didn't realize how lucky I was to have found this little corner of the internet, but this week I've been so obsessed with checking out people's book/movie recs, refreshing this tab, and being open with myself and others. Guess I just wanted to leave this brief yelp review and say I give PD five stars. Thanks everyone for creating and maintaining such an awesome and vital forum. I'm excited to continue to exist on here. Here's me, out for drinks with my renewed sense of self. Wonder if any of my friends noticed the increase in enlightenment!

You’re welcome! It’s what we’re here for. I hope you’ve found some good new books/comics/movies. Feel free to start up a discussion about any of them.
Also as the mother of 4 year old twins I am living what you describe every day. The number and variety of things they will stick in their mouths is truly astounding, even though they are old enough to know better.

That feeling of increase in enlightenment – I know exactly how you feel, cilantro ! It was the same with me after I had discovered PD 7 month ago (only 7 months? That’s crazy! It feels like a lifetime...) But I have to add that discovering PD was shortly after realizing myself at all that I am a dev. How I have changed since then! I felt that only realizing and accepting the devness to myself was like a revelation. It was like a healing, a feeling of growth and becoming whole, of finding my true identity. Only after I gained that feeling of wholeness, I realized how much I‘d been missing my entire life before. I was walking on clouds, brimming with a powerful energy and could barely eat and sleep for 2-3 months. It was absolutely crazy. And all that only because of the realization about my identity with the help of PD. I‘m not talking about my first personal encounter in real life with a PWD (which was also through PD not too long after I had found here) or being so lucky to live my devness now with my wheeler boyfriend. It is really amazing what PD does to us!

Yesterday was my birthday, and just thinking about what a little bean I was going into 24 in comparison with going into 25 is crazy. A year can make such a difference. I hope I grow as much this year!

cilantro , hope it was a great birthday and am so glad you share yourself with all of us here. Love your perspective and bravery that you bring to being a dev Thanks so much! It's funny, I had a little zoom birthday party and it felt crazy that I had come "out" to everyone just in the past year. Even one of my PD friends joined!
