    my old lefty gun group fell apart due to drama (people started dating each other, toxic guy energy, etc) and the squeeze. trying to get a trans/queer focused group started when this chills out and the weather changes.

        I fell into it entirely by accident. I started volunteering at an infoshop, met a friend, their roommates and friends would come to the apartment and hang out, i started to go to the bar together with those other friends, and then before we knew it we had our own little "gun education" affinity group.

            me too, although the first step is to find more friends since the old goofballs sabotaged their own group. I think I'm going to make a "dating" profile and casually vet new friends that way, primarily looking for other women.

                certainly. i also feel older and, having gone thru some life changes this year, i hope that while im still struggling with mental health stuff, ill be in a better place to be more of a guiding and helpful figure to others who want to get started. That wouldn't have been possible without the other group, so I'm grateful for the past even if I'm not inclined to repeat it, you know?

                Sometimes life like that
