Time for an #introductions post!
I'm an old #GenerationX #trans woman and even though there is definitely some queerness going on my identity I go by she/her pronouns. I transitioned well over a decade ago. In fact, it's been so long it is at times easy to forget I'm trans at all.
Some of current hobbies include #painting (you can follow my work on the #tlgart tag), playing #guitar (though I play much less than I used to), and #gaming. I play both on consoles and PC. I have a #retropie setup and a #WiiU.
I tend to stick to singleplayer games; usually (action) RPGs, sandboxes, turn-based strategy (mostly #Civ6) , and all types of puzzle games. I don't exactly have the reflexes anymore to play most platformers or shooters and the likes. Quick-Time Events are my enemy.
My body is broken and living with chronic pain hampers my physical ability throughout the day. I have to carefully plan my chores and appointments throughout the day/week as too much activity can leave me exhausted for days.
I am passionate about #linux and #RaspberryPi and almost always have some crazy new project in my head which I may or may not be actually smart enough to accomplish. I try to adopt #foss applications when able and am somewhat of a #privacy and security advocate.
Media has shaped and continues to shape much of my life. I love #cartoons , #horror movies, #StarTrek , #Buffy, popcorn action flicks, #Transformers , #Marvel , and the other usual geeky stuff. Especially fond of old #80s and #90s shows and movies.
I am #neurodivergent and may not always 'get' the proper context or tone but it mostly manifests in hyperfocus and making obscure pop culture references.
I was lucky enough to grow up with access to all kinds of technology and computers during the rise of computing - and later, the internet - which made me naturally tech-literate and able to 'speak' computer though that doesn't mean I can program at all. We just have a mutual understanding.
