Don’t worry, this is not another long rant, I promise. And the image and music have nothing to do with the actual content of what I’m gonna say here, I just put them there for fun xD (Song is Knee Deep by the Zac Brown Band, one I love ❤️) I just wanna say that now that I’ve been back on scratch for a time, I kinda of regret leaving/deleting all my old studios and unsharing my projects when I left for what I thought would be permanent in March. I know why I did it. I was embarrassed of myself and my old content. But I now regret erasing so much of my history. And yeah, there are some parts of I can bring back, but others that I can’t and it kinda sucks. But I guess I came back to make a new history, and reach new scratchers for at least a little while. As time goes on, I might leave again or find a new life on new account, but I hope to leave the best parts this account behind for myself and other Scratchers to see. Also, not a regret, but I gotta confess that I sometimes still feel a little sting when I think about the scratchers I used to follow and talk to that have since left. Those who used to know who I’m about to mention here might understand. I sometimes get a little teary when I hear the song Dandelions by Ruth B or Lush Life by Zara Larsson, because @PeanutBug511, a user I used to talk to for several great months, loved those songs. She deleted her account and went offline permanently around April of 2025. Or I also recall when @LG0807, another great user who disappeared around 2 years ago now, would reach out and say, “Hey, I see you’re online! Wanna chat?” And other users as well. To them I say, are you reading this right now? Do you still think about me? Because I still think about you. You still have a way of popping into my head and shaping what I think and create. I hope I never forget you. I guess I’ve just been feeling a little weepy and wistful lately, in a sad way. It’s kinda tiring sometimes, but it’s better to let those sad feelings move through you so they don’t stay trapped inside of you, and then you can feel better again. ❤️ —@GrapePickle22
