Looking for friends

NAME: Michael
AGE:45
INTERESTS & HOBBIES: Collecting Vinyl, Playing music, photography, DIY art & crafts
ANYTHING ELSE?:
I've officially changed over to DW from LJ, so I'm looking for people to add and get to know a bit.

About Me: I'm 45 and live a very DIY lifestyle. I grew up in the 80s post-punk scene and I've held those ideals and the subculture close to my heart for over 30 years. I enjoy listening to punk rock & post-punk (goth) on vinyl while drinking my morning coffee and I tend to avoid government-controlled media. I am a practicing Buddhist with very left politics. I have no desire to fight or argue with people from behind a screen, I only mention it because it's relevant to people getting along these days.

I have always used my journal as a place to vent or rant, often about work or just about life in general. I am not all about sunshine and butterflies, and sometimes my rants do focus of the bad shit instead of a balance of good and bad. With that said, I hope to be far more positive as I interact with others who bring about positivity. I am a single parent and often post about my kid.

Hey there!

NAME: Allison
AGE: 36
INTERESTS & HOBBIES: I was on LJ and DW a while ago and have returned for 2019. I made a list of 19 goals and want to talk about my progress with them. So, common topics on my DW will be reading (I'm big on diversity, own-voices, romance: m/f (historical) and f/f (contemporary), and historical fiction), vocal music, meditation, running, sustainability (of the save the planet type), vegetarianism, cooking, and data science. I am also a big crafter -- largely knitting and sewing -- so I am sure that will feature too.
LOOKING FOR: What type of journals are you looking for?
I love to connect with some other people who are not only (or primarily) in the fandom space. I have been into various fandoms in the past, and may return in the future, but right now that is not where my interests lie.
