Twitter Exodus Friending Meme

[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.

Your username on DW: lucymonster
Your username on other social media: lucymonster
Pronouns: She/her
Age bracket: 30s
Geographical area: Australia
Interests: Fandom in general. Multifandom exchanges. Extreme metal. Food, cooking, gardening and general domesticity. Goth music, fashion and culture. Figure skating.
Fandoms: Star Wars (especially ST, Mando and recent comics). Bleach. Harry Potter (mostly Marauders era). I occasionally dabble in Tolkien, and even more occasionally I dip back into MCU. I casually read fic all over the place.
What type of posts can we expect in your journal? I post about whatever I happen to be reading or watching, which ranges from dry nonfiction to tropey YA. I like to scream into the void about obscure death metal I've been listening to and share links to recipes I've been cooking. Sometimes I post fic recs, miscellaneous fandom thoughts and exchange news. Friendslocked posts are mostly idle chatter about RL.
Anything else you'd like us to know? I'm hopeless about consuming new media, but I like hearing other people's thoughts about their fandoms even if I'm unfamiliar. Ditto hobbies I don't share! Basically, if you're enthusiastic about something, I'll enjoy experiencing it vicariously.

Just nudging you towards campreylo (twitter expats trying it out) and swbookclub (long-running, also does comics) as places you might want to check out :)

[lucymonster]

Thanks very much! I’ll check out both. :)

Hello there, we have some fandoms in common and I would like to vicariously enjoy posts about Death Metal because it's not a genre I know a lot about so I hope it's okay that I've added you!

[lucymonster]

Lovely to meet you! I’ve added you back. If you ever have any questions about death metal…well, I shouldn’t say I’m your girl, because I have no particular expertise or depth of knowledge, but I’m a girl and I’m pretty much always itching to talk about it. :D

*waves* I'm always down for obscure death metal! (Not the variety too technical, I'm more like the Bolth Thrower and Dismember kind of person, haha.) Reading others' enthusiasm about things I don't know (YET) is my jam, as I tend to do the same. :D

My entry is here and I'd love to join circles. :)

[lucymonster]

Yessss, Bolt Thrower! :DDD To be honest, I don’t really “get” tech-death - I’ve tried so many times, but it just never lands. I’m into anything melodic or blackened and I can’t resist a good, strong, classic death metal riff.

Looks like we have some other interest overlap as well (keen cook, love history, love OFMD). Adding you and subscribing - look forward to seeing you around! :)

I don’t really “get” tech-death - I’ve tried so many times, but it just never lands. - Saaame, honestly. :D How very nice to meet you!!

I'd love to have another Bleach and Mando fan in my circle if you're interested. Also tropey YA...

[lucymonster]

I sure am! Adding you back :)

It’s not always good, but man, when it’s good, it’s good.
