I've already made a thread here to gauge how welcoming everyone is, so here's my actual introduction.

I'm Vriska, and I'm trans, 8ut not in the way you expect. Rather than transgender, I am transcharacter. I've always felt nonhuman in some form, have wanted my left eye removed since early childhood (possi8ly 8IID 8ut I'm not currently pursuing a diagnosis) and eventually came to have dysphoria over not 8eing a troll specifically.

A year l8er and I'm well on my way to 8ecoming one for real. My we8site goes over this plan in more detail, and I'm not hesitant to claim the process as equivalent to a sex change. I'm not faking or trying to mock any8ody, and there are real photos of myself on that carrd to prove that I'm genuine.

Furthermore, here's my coming out video and the thread I started a couple days ago discussing nongender trans identities if you wish to refer to that. I hope this can 8e a safe space for me.

I have no clue what .world is 8ut if you give me a link I guess we can try and revive it? I'm not all that invested in fandom stuff considering how I've 8een treated 8y HS fans in the past 8ut it would 8e nice to have a safe space to engage with that sort of thing.

No problem. This should work https://lemmy.world/c/homestuck

At least if your instance hasn't de federated it or something. I don't know. I can't really keep up on all the inter instance dramas.

I mod it, and I'm totally disconnected from the fandom as I am too old. All fans are welcome and I'd hope to keep it a judgment free zone/ safe space. So far that's been easy as practically no one uses it.

Idea: what if we just had a Homestuck community run out of here? I looked through the list and saw a lot of misc. fandom communities. If no one uses the .world one that's kinda pointless, no? I'd just 8e shouting into the void. I can just do that from 8luesky.

I'd be cool with shutting down the .world one and migrating my logs over. I'm beginning to see that this instance may be a better fit anyway. Not sure how to do that exactly but if you want to start and run the community here I'll research the other parts.

Oh I couldn't run it, I'm too new to Lemmy. I literally just got here.

No problem I'll continue to run it and mod later if. This whole thing will take a few days as I'm working multiple jobs but I'll DM you any updates.
