Sticky Post - About Me
Mar. 30th, 2028 09:04 pmSo there should be something here that tells folks who I am. And I’m realizing I have to fix that minimum access default, lol, so this can be seen by folks outside of my access list.
About Me
I’m in my mid-thirties and I’ve lived in Pennsylvania, USA all my life. I originally planned on being a literature teacher or professor but stopped at a BA. I worked odd jobs while in school: pharmacies, cd stores, dvd stores, etc. And with the lit degree, I became a writing tutor. Later in a sort of related job, I was encouraged to develop my tech skills, which were just something of a hobby and interest before. I went back to school for another degree, and now I work in IT. It’s been a long, strange trip. I’d like to do more and be better, but that’s a work in progress.
Fandom
( This will be chunky but not super long... )
Anyway, I think it is clear I like escapism. Always have, always will. But it’s brought a lot of good to my life. People to talk to, people to admire, works to enjoy, etc.
Life
I do not want to be a Debbie Downer. I’m anxious and depressed, so much so I saw a therapist for it. But mostly, I try to work on it and keep moving forward. I will admit COVID has uhh...made it difficult to maintain a nice level of...not fucked-upness (for everyone, not just me, I know). I try not to let my own issues affect how I interact with others, but if it spills over, call me out. I’d appreciate it I and would be unlikely to take it as an act of conflict.
( Discussion of diet & fitness & possible theoretical disorded eating... )
I hope not to talk about this too much, tbh, but I thought it was fair to disclose.
***We’ll see how much of this I keep here. Mostly, I just want to have a nice place to expand on thoughts I can’t on Twitter. Livetweeting a show is all well and good, but getting into the gritty details about character can be hard. I’d also like to expand on friendships with folks by being able to have a window into each other’s thoughts that Twitter doesn’t afford.
Anyway, here’s hoping for all good things for everyone! <333
