How do you do, fellow kids?

Or honestly, probably not kids at this point. Figured I might as well make a pinned post here to update from time to time when relevant, and to give an idea of where I can be found where I might be more talkative and all lol.

Local gay trans masc

Occasionally moonlights as a tired shadar-kai who just wants to go home (ren faire & dnd stuff)

Resident elf and dragon liker

Certified cryptid

Can also mostly be found on bluesky

I'm also active on discord, but I am TERRIBLE at interacting lmao

I don't have a dedicated art blog anymore due to rarely drawing (and even more rarely finishing anything) but I will sometimes post doodles to bsky. I've been thinking about creating a sideblog and side bsky for some FFXIV endeavors as well, because it certainly has taken over my bsky despite me trying to pepper in my other current interests lol. If I do, I may or may not link them here. We shall see.

Being obsessed with your own ocs is so so good for you i seriously can't recommend it enough

The only downside is that you have to do Everything around here

Shout out to trans women who aren’t computer scientists or musicians or avant-garde artists or whatever.

Shout-out to tgirls who work at Taco Bell. Thank u queen, society would collapse without you

Over twenty years ago my big brother got me a job at a Taco Bell in the St. Louis suburbs-West County. He warned me that it was the “gay Taco Bell”, but since I was coming from the “gay Howard Johnson’s” I wasn’t shocked. It turns out it was the black trans women Taco Bell complete with black trans women in management. And they’d worked out an arrangement with the local teen Narcotics Anonymous group so that twice a week we would shut down the drive thru and the dining room and exclusively serve 60+ teens in various stages of recovery. And many of the women I worked with were in various stages of being out or transitioning and they were from all generations from teens to over 50. One woman I worked with had a regular corporate job presenting as a man 9-5 Mon-Fri and then came to Taco Bell and worked 6pm -2am Friday and Saturday night so she could be herself surrounded by other black transwomen in those stolen weekends. And we had customers come from all over the metro area because they knew they could be themselves in the dining room. I only worked there from 1999-2001 but for young me, this was a vital, formative experience. Some of the girls came from north city all the way out to the “gay Taco Bell” on Manchester in west county because they heard it was safe to work there. Like- I know times have changed but they haven’t changed much in 20 years. I’m still convinced that for lgbt youth, finding a job at your city’s version of the “gay Taco Bell” is key to survival.

always funny to remember darth vader is anakin skywalker. the adrenaline junkie chucklefuck who used to dive head first out of speeders and built a pod racer in his yard when he was like six is now upper-middle management for the evil empire. half of his appearances in the original trilogy are Meetings. vader spends like 80% of his time dealing with bureaucratic bullshit. status updates. team meetings. holo-Zooms. budget rundowns. anakin betrayed the jedi and caused the fall of the republic and his punishment is being CC'd on every email forever. and you know what. he would hate that. the punishment fits the criminal

love it when people link wikipedia pages instead of explaining the point. The url alone conveys so much disdain and contempt. Here is the information you desire, i found it with ease.
