Nice to meet you!
Name: Cameron
Age: Early 30s
I am: A straight transgender man who thought I was bi for like a decade lol. I'm t4t with my girlfriend. ✌️ I'm a former cohost user. I have an excellent cat.
I mostly post about: Though I'm new to dreamwidth, I expect it will mostly be journaling. I moved to a new state a couple years ago so I expect most of my journaling will be about things like trying to make friends and figuring life out. I will also post the occassional essays about subjects like gender, sexuality, and religion (I'm an atheist ex-Christian). My blog is completely public for now, so you can take a look. I hope to do some divination for people as well.
I'm looking to meet: Queer and trans people (defined broadly), but anyone who is interested in following is welcome to add me. Adults only though please.
My interests are: Writing, pop music, queer stuff, books, Christianity (again... I'm an atheist lol), video games (particularly the Sims and indie games), and manga, though my ADHD prevents me from exploring these interests as broadly as I want to.
My posting schedule tends to be: Weekly
I look forward to getting to know you! 👾

Games: I'm mostly just playing the Sims, but sometimes I'm playing Tactics Ogre: Reborn (so good) and Digimon Survive (has a fair share of enjoyable parts and also flaws).
Books: I'm reading "Less" by Andrew Sean Greer, which is a Pullitzer-prize winning comedic/literary novel (what a combo!) about a gay man who is traveling the world to avoid attending his ex's wedding. Extremely good. I've been working on it for months and this book deserves better than the amount of time it's taken me to finish it.
Manga: I haven't read very much in a long time but being on cohost encouraged me to get back into it. I'm reading Sweet Blue Flowers/Aoi Hana, which is about queer girls pining for other girls at a pair of neighboring girls' schools. It's very funny in places but it's often really subtle and understated in a hard-hitting way.
Pop music: I was lucky enough to attend the Charli xcx and Troye Sivan tour (which I blogged about on dreamwidth) so I'm listening to those two a lot. :) I've become a relatively big Taylor Swift fan as well in the past couple of years.
Thanks for asking! What kinds of things are you interested in these days? :)

I haven't heard of Tactics Ogre: Reborn but I have heard of Digimon Survive. My boyfriend played it and I think overall enjoyed it. My games I have been playing lately have been Dreamlight Valley and Paleo Pines. Also when I get tired of those I fall back on some of my old Pokemon games to complete my pokedex and other afterthought parts of the game. But lately I haven't been playing all that much.
I've been reading a bit of books and manga lately. Which is a nice combination. I haven't heard of that manga series but it might be a nice one to check out. With manga I've been reading Nana and The promised Neverland which are both pretty dark but good. Also I've been reading Lore Olympus which is pretty good, too!
I've actually been hearing her music a-lot more lately and Tayor Swift is good in my books. I like her views on Politics for one. But her music is catchy and well written. I've always felt like she had a bit of sadness in some of her songs which can be hard to express for artists but she does it well.
Mostly I've been working on my comic that I share online. Also my hobby of stamp collecting and a few other projects around my house and yard. But mostly I've been doing a-lot more reading and helping with volunteering at my local library.

My name is Tina & I would like to get to know you - you seem like a nice and interesting person.
I'm a queer (mostly lesbian) demi-girl who loves books and has an excellent cat, as well :D
The contents of your journal sound very intriguing to me, want to give being friends a try?
(ps: lately I've seen a lot of people write that they came here from Cohost...I've actually never heard of that website, is it another blogging site? Sorry for the silly question, I just feel like I'm out of touch somehow lol)
no subject
No worries, cohost was a relatively small social media site that most people haven't heard of. It lived for about two years and it was similar to tumblr but was noteworthy for being really user-health-oriented, like there was no algorithm, no ads, no numbers (the likes weren't counted, there was no follower count, etc.), adult friendly but there were built-in content warning/adult content warning features. It had a really fun and interesting community, but unfortunately due to funding issues (and also one of the big features they had planned for the site couldn't be realized because a third party changed one of their policies overnight) the staff decided to close it down a month or so ago. :(
Edit: I see your Taylor Swift lyrics on your profile and I appreciate it XD

Thanks for the explanation - what a pity the site was shut down, it sounds really awesome :(
Are you a Taylor fan as well? :)
no subject
Yes, I've become a bigger fan in the past couple of years. :)
no subject
Yay! My sister got me into her music last year - I had known and like a couple songs before but hadn't been a fan as such, but now I am :)

I haven't played The Sims in a bit because I never got used to the styles of anything later than The Sims 2, because of how the neighborhoods worked for time flow.
I'm currently an off and on Skyrim addict. I read a lot, try to write fantasy/sf, and cook. A lot.
We be poor. I'd love to share about lives and maybe writing. :)
