[xancredible]

Maybe no-one besides my handful of DW mutuals will fill this out but let's try having a friending meme like in the good old days.

Comment with this form filled out, read other people's comments, chat, and friend each other :D

Your username on DW: flameandsong
Your username on other social media: verhalen - I'm not on other social media, I don't use Discord, etc. [I'm here via a friend and thought I would come say hi to the people leaving Space Karen's $44 billion trashfire.]
Pronouns: He/him only, please.
Age bracket: Forties. My birthday's next week.
Geographical area: Indiana, United States
Interests: Writing, making art, food, cottagecore, music of all different genres. I used to be crafty before my hypermobility got worse and I still love reading about other people's crafting projects.
Fandoms: Tolkien, Game Of Thrones, Vikings, Andromeda, La Femme Nikita, LOST, Sailor Moon, Star Trek [TOS/TNG/DS9; will be starting Picard soon-ish, yes I'm behind], Breaking Bad, Better Call Saul, uhhh too many to name.
What type of posts can we expect in your journal? I talk about writing projects, stuff I watch, and my very boring, hobbity life. You will hear about cats a lot, because my life revolves around cats. I have PTSD and occasionally when I vent I use cuts and trigger warnings. I sometimes natter about LGBT stuff. I make less political commentary than I used to because the news has been stressing me out too much this year, but sometimes I'm good for a political rant. Most of my journal is behind access lock for reasons and I only allow comments on my journal from my access list [again, for reasons]. I do post at least a few times a week.
Anything else you'd like us to know? I'm a trans man, queer [I like dudes and enbies], ace-spec, multiply-disabled and chronically ill, neurodivergent [ADHD and autism]. I'm shy and socially awkward, but I like making new friends. As a general heads-up, while I don't post my fic on my journal, I do write dirtybadwrong smut and would prefer antis steer clear. Please be over 18. No TERFs, no racists, no Republicans, etc etc ad nauseam.

Hello, I would like to be your friend!! We share some fandoms (Trek, Sailor Moon), and we're both trans boys :)

[ex_flameandsong751]

I just added you! Welcome aboard!

[xancredible]

Whoop whoop!

LOL @ "Space Karen."

Enby here (she/they), I also love music and crafty things--crocheting and baking for me. Fandom-wise we have Tolkien in common, but I have lots of other fandoms. Also--is your username a pun on Van Halen? Because if you're a fan of metal, we probably have even more in common!

Hi! I am also queer, crafty and into Star Trek! Hello!

[ex_flameandsong751]

Hi! I added you!

[reidemosthenes]

I am also an adhd autistic trans person (she/they) who likes crafting and cats!

[ex_flameandsong751]

Yay, I added you!

[tellshannon815]

Always down for cats! Want to give it a go?

[ex_flameandsong751]

Sure, I added you!

Hello! I am very fond of writing, cottagecore and crafts, also Tolkien. I am ace-spec and enby and also have fibromyalgia, so I feel like we have stuff in common and would like to friend you if its okay?

[ex_flameandsong751]

I have added you! Welcome aboard!

[galadhir]

Thank you!

[ex_flameandsong751]

You're welcome! Oh, obviously it's OK to add me back. I should have said that.

[ex_flameandsong751]

Not to be a pain in the butt, but I don't know if you forgot to add me after you asked, or if you decided against adding me?

[galadhir]

No, I'm just often away from the computer, so there can be long gaps before I get round to doing things. Sorry to alarm you :)
