Hello! This is my second post here, with a freshly-reactivated account. Life went a bit sideways when I tried getting back into journaling last year, but I'd like to try again. I can't help but want to connect with people the way I used to on livejournal, ages and ages ago.
Most of the answers are the same as my initial post, with a wee bit of tweaking. If you were around for that one and want to give me another chance, I'd be glad to reconnect. :D
Name:
Emile
Age:
Mid-30s
I mostly post about:
My hobbies and interests, daily life, and creative projects. I might also share playlists from time to time. (Nostalgia has me longing for the days of mix CDs with custom album covers...) With the exception of my short-lived dreamwidth stint last year, I haven't journaled like this in more than 15 years. I expect I'm still a bit clumsy with my words.
My hobbies are:
Art & crafts, reading (I'm open to most genres), creative writing, playing video games, learning and studying (locate niche topic, hyperfixate, repeat), divination, dancing, collecting fashion dolls, listening to music, watching films, spending time in nature, spending time with my cat & snake, making up silly songs, dreaming and designing (mainly whimsical but conventionally useless things). I'm naturally curious and like to do a little bit of everything.
My fandoms are:
I'm a fan of various franchises, but I don't actively engage with other fans or seek fanfiction/fanart. Past experience tells me fandom goes hard, while I prefer to go softly. Franchises I might write about casually include Kamen Rider, Lodge 49, Studio Ghibli, and various cartoons & video games from childhood.
I'm looking to meet people who:
I can connect with on some level. Honestly, all I ask of others is empathy. Even if we share more differences than similarities, as long as you have empathy, I'm sure we can find a common thread between us and enjoy learning from each other's perspective.
My posting schedule tends to be:
*nervous laughter* ... I'd like to write regularly, but I have spent so long stifling my own voice, I can't be sure what 'regular' looks like right now. I'd like to be less comfortable as a ghost. I'll be around each week, even if it's just leaving comments on my read page.
When I add people, my dealbreakers are:
Bigotry, right wing extremism, animal cruelty, rampant disregard for the environment & more-than-human world. I try to be fair-minded, but I cannot be your friend if I am constantly angry about your journal content. Also, I generally won't subscribe to fandom-only journals simply because I prefer to connect with people beyond the scope of a franchise.
Before adding me, you should know:
I experience chronic illness and mental health issues. While they will likely not be topics of focus, I may mention them in passing, and my anxiety-fueled awkwardness can be glaring. If you're susceptible to secondhand embarrassment, feel free to keep scrolling. :') Also, if you have a snake phobia, be aware I will write about/share photos of my lil guy.
