hey~
It's kinda crazy coming back here. Writing something on Blogspot.
I'm sure there won't be that many people reading this post but never mind. Could be interesting for some.
So I created this blog 8 years ago (oof). And then created and worked on Open TG Captions for a few years after that. But it wasn't very stable, and I didn't have the headspace to maintain it, so it kind of disappeared around 2017/2018 (I can't really remember, but that was around the end of my Uni time).
It always made me sad. Because this was clearly one of my best projects. It was great seeing so many people creating captions, reading them, commenting them, etc.
I tried to re-develop the website, but I felt like I'd had lost the momentum. The passion wasn't really there anymore, and I was in a bad place, mentally.
I just wanted to keep you all updated. I'm still alive, I'm not writing captions anymore though ^^

The other big new I wanted to share here is that I came out as transgender :)
My egg cracked (meaning, I realised I was trans) something like 2 years ago.
Since then, I feel like my mental health has improved (wasn't obvious at first, I'll be honest)
And I don't know. Learn what you want from it. For me, I feel like the captions I was writing were just the tip of the iceberg. I still enjoy them, playing around with gender roles/transformation/etc is still arousing to me but I think I learned something about myself from it (if that makes sense?)
And obviously, this isn't a hint ; like I'm not saying you liking tg captions means you're trans too.
But obviously it's a question worth asking yourself.
Cheers <3
PS. If this post unearths the blog for some reason, I'd be happy to reply to any comment, etc.
Would be fun to know if some tg-captions writers had the same experience, or simply what your relationship with gender is.
