Meet me: Mattie :D

[terresdebrume]

NAME: Matt

AGE: Will be 29 in May.

INTERESTS & HOBBIES: My list is like, super long, but I like reading and learning about social justice, with particular focus on queer rights (it being of personal interest and all), although I try to be a decent and better person overall, not just in that area. I like pretty much all things fannish, but reading and writing are big favorites, even if I don't have all that much time to devote to either of them these days. Other things I like are long walks in peaceful places (surprisingly hard to do in Cambodia) pirates, cats and dogs, languages, and education things (professional interest as a language teacher)
ETA: OH MY GOD YOU KNOW WHAT ELSE I LIKE THAT I COMPLETELY FORGOT TO MENTION HERE? FANFICTION. FANFICTION IS A THING I LIKE A LOT. /slaps forehead/

LOOKING FOR: Mostly people who are interested in hanging out! Friendship would be a great bonus, but I'm also pretty casual about subscribing/unsubscribing so don't feel guilty if it turns out we're not a match :3
My access policy is a little more touch and go, but 99% of the blog is public anyways, so there's that x)

ANYTHING ELSE?: I'm a queer trans guy, so if that's a bother better not subscribe. I think nonbinary people are trans, that aces and aros are part of the queer community, that we all need to work on our own prejudice (racism, antisemitism, ableism, you name them, you probably have them), and also that the internet is not where we are meant to grind our teeth and hope assholes will just get tired.
If that sounds like a reasonnable outlook on life to you, we should get along fine :)

ALSO KNOWN AS: terresdebrume terresdebrume and terresdebrume among other websites :)

I agree with you about nonbinary people being trans, as well as aces and aros-- I believe that people really need to realize that the rainbow is a spectrum, and colours bleed into each other and there are so many shades and varieties--

You look like I a pretty legit and chill guy so I'm definitely subscribing! <3

[terresdebrume]

Haha, thanks! :D
You seem pretty interesting too so I'm subscribing back ^^

Hi you seem cool af. I'm cis & queer & agree with your takes. I wanna read about Cambodia 👀 Friends??

[terresdebrume]

Sure! Fair warning though: I don't think I have that many posts talking about Cambodia specifically so far-I'm very open to questions, I'd just feel weird about launching into a discussion about it while having comparatively little formal knowledge of it you know? :P

[athenasleepsin]

You seem real interesting in general! 💖

[terresdebrume]

Thanks ^^

Love your "anything else" paragraph! I am a poly pansexual pagan. We might get along fine! :) Friends?

[terresdebrume]

Sure :)

[aeonwren]

I have a feeling we'd get along great, so I'm also subscribing! :)

[terresdebrume]

Thanks, I'm flattered :D

Hello! You are super interesting, so I'm adding you. No pressure to add me back. Although I say stupid things sometimes from a place of privilege, it's never intended to hurt anyone, and I think I've gotten a lot better over the years. I'm not on here super frequently, but when I am, I will be super interested to see you on my reading page.

[terresdebrume]

Hi, thanks for your interest! I'm slowing down a little with the 'adding people to my list thing' because I don't want to get overwhelmed with my reading page and just give up on it like what happened to me on tumblr, but I'll be happy to chat whenever you feel like it :)

Also eh, if you're willing to learn that's the most important part :)

[jesse_dylan]

No worries! Yeah, I have like 2 friends and I'm already overwhelmed, so I get it!

[terresdebrume]

Haha, thank you for your understanding ^^
