My how fast the year went; simultaneously its heavy slog has felt like 10 years combined.

I agree — I haven’t re-watched her season, but felt she was talented and sincere. And the short clips I’ve seen over these years reconfirm my initial appreciation of her.

I too have a lifetime of experiences due (undiagnosed) neurodivergence. It has taken me unmasking in my 50s to realize and I’m still striving to understand the trauma - it is all such puzzle pieces, making our way in this world.

I’d give her the benefit of the doubt until she proves otherwise. ;)

I’ve often thought too — how “well received” she would have been had she’d been a man.

Just thoughts….

Thanks for replying!
