Xennial out here looking for friends
Name:
Jesse
Age:

I mostly post about:
What's going on in my life. A lot of this is in a struggle-y narrative. Big topic categories include frustrations with tech work, relationships, housing situation, (I've had a weird series of housing events the past few years) and projects and special interests. Sometimes I try to post dreams when I remember them. Sometimes I post "memoirs" - things I remember from my past. Occasionally there is some personal introspection. I like to be handy, and I like to be creative, but life has taken me away from those and I post a lot about trying to get back to it.
My hobbies are:
Music - listening and making it. (I play drums, guitar and bass. interested in songwriting. currently playing in a cover band and taking lessons again. have been a recordist, still dabble) Cycling - former bike mechanic and ride road and mountain.. big nerd for equipment and tools. I guess also sci-fi in general.. I like books, especially William Gibson, movies and tv in this genre. I guess self improvement too, now, though I'm really bad at it, but I've become pretty deep into reading stuff to try to figure out all my weirdness.
My fandoms are:
I don't really do this. I get into things, but not the way people who use the word fandom do. I know a lot about, and am happy to talk about star trek / wars, stargate, other sci-fi stuff, fringe, uh.. IDK.
I'm looking to meet people who:
Are interested in short but meaningful async conversations. I also enjoy reading from people who do interesting things. projects, special interests. Also cool with other tech workers / design folks.
My posting schedule tends to be:
I try to roll things into a weekly update, but in times where I'm dysregulated, I may post daily.. Thinking about filtering those dailies, but I haven't yet looked into if dreamwidth can do that the same as LJ.
When I add people, my dealbreakers are:
Meanness. And I mean, I may make you frustrated, and it's ok to be short with me in those cases. No racism or hatefulness please. I don't want to even get into politics, but I'm probably not going to get along with you if you're into trump. I guess I also am really looking for folks who are around the 30-50 age range. No offense to anyone younger, but it's just a different headspace and it can kind of frustrate me.
Before adding me, you should know:
I'm non neuro typical.
Sometimes my journal can come across as a complaint-log. I recognize that some people are very sensitive to this. It's just how I communicate.
Also, I generally don't take unsolicited advice well.. and it's not that I don't appreciate it. Happy to talk more about this in specificity if you'd like to be mututals.

Congrats on the novel, and condolences on your loss.
Just added you.
