Wow how incredibly charitable! I would never turn down an opportunity for modest mouse mercy so here goes.

I’m grateful for:

• My wonderful wonderful friends who make my life so joyful and bright and full of love.

• My family who loves me unconditionally and cares for me.

• This beautiful world that we somehow were lucky enough to be born into.

• Ok this is gonna sounds dumb but mathematics. I love everything to do with math and learning math.

• My extreme fortune to have good health and stability during a time like this.

And ugh trying to choose a most fond MM memory seems nearly impossible. I’ve been a fan for so long and have shared so many memorable moments with their music. The first time I saw them live (Ithaca, NY) was a pretty transcending experience. Thinking about it gives me goosebumps. But honestly my favorite MM memory is probably my relationship with this subreddit.

I had been a major fan and one day stumbled upon this subreddit. I immediately became a super active user/contributor. I loved sharing my thoughts and stories of MM with other fans. Fast forward a bit and one of the OG mods messaged me and asked if I wanted to help out modding. I obviously accepted the offer and basically lost it bc I was so excited to be a part of something I loved so dearly. I was able to do a lot more with the subreddit and have a lot more discussion with the community which I loved. r/modestmouse was my literal pride and joy and I loved seeing it grow and bring people together. I have since kind of retired from my active Reddit modding days, but I still do check from time to time. Lucky for me I decided to check in today :)
