hi hello!!!

[veryroundbird]

Name: Carly

Age: 34

I mostly post about: Life updates, gardening, what I'm watching/reading, crafts, writing projects—I haven't posted much in a while but I'm angling to do more of it and I think having people to talk to will help!

My hobbies are:

• Music (playing/singing/listening—I collect vinyl and play ukulele)
• Anime (I like a lot of stuff across the board—magical girls, showbiz dramas, mecha, supernatural; this season we're watching Hirogaru Sky Precure, Gundam: the Witch from Mercury, and Oshi no Ko)
• Mobile games (Arknights/Honkai Star Rail/Limbus Co/Mahjong Soul)
• FFXIV (I'm casual; BRD/MCH)
• Twitch streaming
• Collecting Squishmallows
• Reading (SFF, essay, nonfiction, poetry)
• Cooking
• Programming (php/ruby/javascript/html/css/perl; i'm a DW codebase volunteer)
• Gardening
• Writing (fanfic/original/poetry)
• VTuber fandom

My fandoms are: Arknights, The Locked Tomb, Limbus Company, Honkai Star Rail, Tabletop RPGs (world of darkness, exalted, nobilis/chuubo's/glitch, various indie games), a bunch of stuff that lives rent-free in my head in the background like Warcraft and Discworld

I'm looking to meet people who: Are friendly, like to chat, maybe share some interests

My posting schedule tends to be: sporadic but angling for at least weekly

When I add people, my dealbreakers are: the bigotries are not welcome; also if you're going to be weird about religion i'd prefer you not do it on my dw

Before adding me, you should know: I'll often drop a subscription back if you've got stuff on your journal! I'm a married lesbian in my 30s; I am maybe converting to Judaism; I'm Chinese-American; I sometimes use a lot of exclamation points

Hiya, also into gardening, writing, games :)

[veryroundbird]

Nice! Great to meet you.

[randomdrops]

Hello! I'm also into gardening, gaming, writing, and reading. I went ahead and added you, feel free to poke around and add back if you want!

[cassie_faith]

I'm a writer :) I have an outdated intro here: https://cassie-faith.dreamwidth.org/276.html

Hi! My DW is life updates, what I'm reading/watching, my craft projects, and I'm into gardening as well! Would you like to be friends?

[spiderswelcome]

We seem to have some common interests, I'll add you and you can add back if you like!

PS - since you are a programmer I'd like to ask: how do I embed a YouTube video on DW??

[veryroundbird]

o/ nice to meet you!

—also, as far as I know the normal embed code youtube will give you under the share menu should work, and youtube's a whitelisted embed domain. If it's displaying funny, it might be a custom layout problem.

HI o/ I've also been a fan of Exalted since its inception, more or less, and though I don't do nearly as much TT as I used to (who does) I have played a couple interesting indies recently, so I guess I'm kinda getting back into it.

Sadly I am a Squishables loyalist, though.

[veryroundbird]

Nice! There really are a lot of cool indies out there, so I'd love to hear about some of what you're playing.

And listen, All Stuffed Animals Are Valid. I've got a Squisables cthulhu; we've got a bunch of fluffnest buddies, I love them all.

Hello! I'm also a married lesbian ;-) and I think we have a lot of interests in common. I'll add you, feel free to add back.

[einhornmaedchen]

First off, I want to say that your username is adorable! :) I love birds ♥

My name is Tina, I am pansexual (with a huge preference for women), 35 years old and live in Germany.
We share interests in music, cooking and reading and I occasionally write stuff as well. Life updates is my favourite kind of DW entries and what I do most of as well - right now I am working on a travel log of my recent vacation to Ireland.

Would you like to give it a try?

[veryroundbird]

Sure! It's nice to meet you!

[liveonthesun]

a locked tomb fan! hello! i'm adding you.

[veryroundbird]

lovely to meet you!

[saucebox]

Adding you to motivate myself to practice more ukulele!

[indarkdirected]

Nice to meet you! Looks like we have similar taste in reading and crafting. Mind if I add you?

[veryroundbird]

Go for it! I'll add you back.
