This is great, lowers the bar for entry for newcomers!

I am certain it wasn't easy, but nothing worth it ever is. Congratulations, and here's to being you.

Hoping, much like yourself, that the stigma and pain behind coming out vanishes sooner rather than later.

Movement in the right direction

Without a doubt, it's got to be surreal for him. I can't even imagine.

In the grand scheme of history, this is nothing. But it's hard not to feel like I'm living through a huge moment.

The news, connections, answers, laughter, sadness, shock, joy--all of it--that this app delivered to me will be fondly cherished.

Hopefully nothing I want goes on sale. I have to cut back on my spending.

Although, I have $30 set aside for games every month, so you never know.

Outside of looking up some very niche stuff (r/NoContract, etc) on desktop, haven't touched it. Granted, haven't been on bin.social much either.

I deem this opinion absolute fact. Unless you're at Louis' Lunch in New Haven, CT, you have no need for a tomato on burger.

Don't intend disrespect, but that sounds so sad, for multiple reasons.

High five back!

I'm 86, but I feel you. Before he passed, my dad played with his granddaughter in a similar fashion. My theory was, he saw how involved I (and my peers) was and realized it wasn't too late.

Whoo, does this put me in a good mood.

My dad did his best considering he lost his dad at 14, so I don't blame him too much. But if there was something I knew I'd do one day as a dad (currently have a 4-year-old daughter) it'd be spending free time with her.

My generation isn't the best, but I knew this was a statistic we'd slam dunk.

I've been slowly removing Alexa from my life, but it seems very tough for me to nix our Echo Show in the Kitchen. It's been useful.

I went the HomeKit route instead of Google, so a HomePod with a screen is what I wish for (though I know it won't ever come). That being said, this does look pretty slick.
