We live in a cancelled world. Rights we thought we had are gone. Protections—poof! Even the very concept of equality has been upturned.

Yet I have received numerous messages from people who have stumbled across the site and felt the need to reach out and let me know that it was the first time they saw that someone “got them.” So at the risk of seeming corny or—gulp—woke: you have a place here.

If something led you to click on this site, then we have a common thread between us, friend. Sure, maybe you aren’t gay. Or maybe it’s not exactly shoes, or not exactly boots. But something brought you here. So stay.

Explore.

Contemplate.

Consider that whatever brought you here probably feels like a secret, but doesn’t have to be. At least not among us.
