We don't really share any fandoms, but I'm interested in fan experiences other than my own and I'm all about pets. And I worry that I smell of cat wee sometimes made me FEEL SEEN! :D Adding.

Hi, I'm in the Midwest, I'm a trans guy, I like X-Files, I am very much not a conservative. My post on the friending meme is here. May I add you?

[ex_flameandsong751]

Hi! I keep seeing you around and you had me at "I worry that I smell of cat wee". May I add you? My thread is here but to sum up, I am a fortysomething trans guy owned by cats and I love Sailor Moon.

[yarnofariadne]

Sure!

Sure! I've added you back.

YESSS MORE OF US

[summerstorm]

I’m drive-by interested in a lot of those things! And I absolutely LOVE Hades (and love Stranger Things, but no capitals there). Will probably play Mass Effect if the legendary edition ever goes down in price by like, a lot. Friends?

[summerstorm]

you had me at “no terfs, no tories”, which may be the last thing in your post but is the first thing I read. Stranger Things, used to love TVD, and we share video games, travel and D&D as specific interests. Friends?

[summerstorm]

You added me on tumblr recently (pollychurchill, just added you back) so now I see you here I figure, wanna add each other?

[summerstorm]

I love Ghosts (both versions) and Critical Role, and a quick look at your journal tells me you might help me understand Mastodon by osmosis, which would be quite helpful. Friends?

[senmut]

hee, I was being sneaky (my tumblr dash badly needed new things) but YES!

[leanwellback]

Excellent! Added :D

[summerstorm]

Hi! I’ve been looking for more D20 & CR & D&D (how many ampersands can you use in under 20 characters challenge) and I adore Leverage — friends?

[leanwellback]

*thumbs up* subscribed back!

[summerstorm]

Haha, I mostly noticed because your username sounded familiar, I think I must have read some of your fic way back in the day. Plus I came back to tumblr like two years ago and have been a lurker the whole time, so any time someone who is not a porn bot adds me I’m like, well, we gotta have SOMETHING in common, surely, even if it’s just running or previously having run in similar fandom circles. :)

[wembley]

For sure! I'm still a Mastodon newbie but I'm happy to help any way I can!

OMG GHOSTS. Which are your favorite characters in the US version?

[sonofgodzilla]

Moments before this reply I was trying to clean her with a damp cloth, exciting much protest - we're now fully in the cat wee meta, ahha.

Adding right back! It's lovely to meet you! Like you, I'm excited to see what others are excited about and experience that joy through osmosis.

[summerstorm]

It just sounds so incredibly complicated, with different words for everything. I will go if and when people I love move to it exclusively and no sooner, I suspect, lmao, but it would be good to get a grasp on it before I need to use it.

Much like with the BBC version the main couple is excellent, though unlike the BBC version I have to admit I like Sam a little more than I like Jay, haha. I think Alberta, Thorfinn and Trevor are probably my favorite ghosts, but I love them all. I want Isaac to be happy! I also love that they adapted characters to US history, which seems like a given but you never know with these things, so I love that they have Sass and that Susan’s backstory has Patty Hearst vibes. I kinda wish they’d gone more off piste with some of the BBC counterpart ghosts but it’s still just real fun.

[sonofgodzilla]

OH! Of course, please do! I'm adding you right now and I'm going to use you as my canary in the mine as to whether I should invest in watching Picard also.

*reads your list, narrows eyes, makes a note in a little black book* Hmm, no mention of Enterprise. I see.

hahaha, I'm teasing! :p

[verdande_mi]

Hello :D I have added you back. Nice to meet you!

[verdande_mi]

Tumblr made me look into Ted/Trent fanfiction and that was it :D

[lil_1337]

Hi! We have a lot in common including D&D and Tales games.

May I friend you?
