Hard to figure where to start. Been on just about every platform here and there with little special use for any of them. I have very bittersweet feelings about the Internet overall, relating mostly to what happens with information available to us. I'm not too filled in on the scope of the reddit drama, but I do really like the fediverse and always support efforts to have more autonomous means of social networking. Anyways, more about me: I'm almost four years into HRT and trying to keep a footing in writing. (I have four short poetry books and a sporadic blog under my belt so far.) So much is going on over the existence of people like me that it puts me in depressive stupors disabling me from finding the words for the feels. But I'm carrying on as best as a girl can. I'm almost always making notes for projects, so that's something. Primary interests of mine are history, literature, free/open source technology, anarchist theory, pagan spirituality and pantheons, cannabis as a medicinal treatment (and politics relating to its complete legalization), horticulture, hiking, ecology and armed self-defense. I play a few PC games like the Half-Life series, The Elder Scrolls series, different shooters and RPGs, but I'm not as much of a massive gamer as my partner is. I mostly listen to crust punk / d-beat / grindcore / mincecore, very much identifying with that section of punk culture, but like most people I also listen to just about everything. Joy Division, Interpol, Killing Joke, Fields Of Nephilim, Sisters Of Mercy, She Past Away, In This Moment, Pixies, REM, Gillian Welch and Kossoy Sisters just to name some from my spotify. All that said, I hope this finds everyone well and that you all have an outstanding day :)

Hey all, I heard about Lemmy from Mastodon and thought I’d give it a shot. I was never much of a reddit user besides occasional lurking, mostly because the quality of discussions seemed pretty hit or miss. BeeHaw seems a lot nicer though, so I thought I’d give it a shot.

I use he/him/his pronouns. If privilege was a game of bingo, my particular demographics would likely be the free space. I try to acknowledge that and use it for good.

By day I’m a staff software engineer at a relatively large tech company (which means I write more docs than code most of the time), and by night I’m a cooking enthusiast, musician, sci fi novel fan, and exhausted parent of a toddler.

Hi, I'm Nora! I'm a queer jeweler and I make funny bots sometimes. I am into tabletop games, leftism, colors, dragons, etc.

Hey y'all! I'm a giant Korean (half Korean, really). I am a long time web app developer turned IT director. I love food/cooking, gardening, and playing or running D&D. I've been running a 5e game for 4 years now, and playing in a 1e Osric game for a year.
