Back Where You Began

In 2010, I was a melancholic basement child with no future and no aspirations.

In 2020, I'm a melancholic basement child with no future and no aspirations, but 6,000+ marsupials know that I exist.

So that's something.

Cheers, m8.

Thanks for all the reasons to keep going.

[FanOfMostEverything]

I, for one, am glad to know that you exist.

[Jake The Army Guy]

You've also written stories that have affected people, helped them process their own inner demons, brought together a whole community of diverse people over an epic saga of loss, determination, action, and hope, inspired countless works of art, music, and fiction, have met some of your best friends, and generally left a positive impact on 6,000+ marsupials.

So, yeah, you got that going for you. Which is nice.

[kazamacat]

I want you to know that I found your writing at exactly the time in my life when I needed it most, and I am very grateful for that. That is, indeed, something. Thank you.

No future!

No aspirations!

Basement child crew. :D

[NorrisThePony]

Isn't this where we came in?

[Jarvy Jared]

Quite some curious tags you've got under there

[JDPrime22]

Same, minus the 6,000. ;_;

Literally who

[Sir Mediocre]

I'm proud to be a marsupial. Howzabout the rest of you?

[Dafaddah]

How do you measure success? What makes life worth living? What brings you happiness?
6000 marsupials followers, close to 8 million words (that I could find) of fiction written on this site, that are beloved and admired by said marsupials.
Not bad, kemosabe, not bad!

(um... who wants to tell them humans aren't marsupials)

We don’t just know you exist, we enjoy that you do.

That’s a common mistake. Humus Marsupialis, aka, the basement-dwelling human, is in fact a marsupial.

Don't make me get a spray bottle.

Nobody, because the fact that we're all lemurs rather than humans has been a Skirts running gag since who-knows-when.

[SnowOriole]

I'm glad that you exist Thank you for being epic

[bronyheat]

Just remember the basement being partially underground gives you protection from all those explosions.

You left out the part where you changed my life and my entire perspective on the world, so that's gotta be worth like 20 points at least

I can't believe I had forgotten about the era of Moonbase Alpha/ "Pony Thread Simulator" videos!
