Hey everyone! My name is Leslie but I'm usually called Lilith online. Either works. I used to be on LiveJournal for years then fell away once Facebook became a thing. I am venturing back to LJ and I will also be posting here as well. I remember having really great connections on LJ and I am hoping to find that again.

Name:

 

Leslie aka Lilith. Either is fine.

Age:

45. I've always been an old soul and now my body is catching up.

I mostly post about:

I don't know yet. I think it's going to be mostly a diary kind of thing where I talk about my life and thoughts and dreams and goals and the nice stuff and the bad stuff. A little bit of everything that makes me ... me.

My hobbies are:

theater, acting, directing, doing tech, art, singing, writing, photography, anything NASA (I go to the Space Center a lot), thrifting, true crime, documentaries

My fandoms are:

Anything Broadway, Marvel, Wicked, paranormal shows, Star Wars, Harry Potter, Percy Jackson, Taylor Swift, etc

I'm looking to meet people who:

Are chill. Some things should be serious about some things, but also a sense of humor is great. I am very "woke" though. Please be aware I am "woke". I am also disabled and will talk about my illness and disability issues. And I am mom of an nonverbal son who is autistic and those subjects will come up. I am adult too so I'll bring up adult issues as well, like sex.

My posting schedule tends to be: daily/weekly/monthly/sporadic/etc

My goal is to post at least weekly, maybe twice a week. My illness can throw me for a loop and suddenly I can't sit up some days. So, it depends on my spoons.

When I add people, my dealbreakers are:

If you are conservative. We just won't connect or agree on things, and I am at the point in my life that I want peace. It's better to just move along. I'm also not Christian but I do have Christian friends, but I am not into Christian Nationalism. If you are, we won't be a good fit. I identify as pagan/witch. I'm also LGBTQIA+ and have a trans son.

Before adding me, you should know: I am unapologetically myself. I can be a strong personality and I will always say if I disagree with someone, but I won't be rude about it unless I am needing to match energy being thrown at me.

Hi Lilith! Lovely to meet you :)

We might have a few things in common, and would love to add you if its ok. (My son is a teenager, I'm a queer, intuitive/witch and a former theatre geek/classically trained vocalist.)

I look forward to hearing from you!

[cemetaries]

You sound amazing! Adding you!

[yourivy]

Hi Leslie, you sound like such an interesting person and I think I'd love to get to know you better.
I was immediately drawn to your username - cemetaries are some of my favourite places to visit. Might sound weird, but they are so peaceful and quiet, walking there calms me down.

I am also queer, woke and like to think I have a decent sense of humour ;) and although for me it is more related to mental than physical issues, I can more than relate to a lack of spoons.
We share the interests of singing, photography, thrifting and true crime & I am a Taylor Swift fan as well.
My name is Tina, btw, I am 37 years old and live in Germany with my cat. Want to give it a try? If not, no offense will be taken, of course :)

[cemetaries]

Would love to get to know you. I agree about cemeteries as well!

[aien_hime]

I love Taylor Swift, have a chronic illness and one of my kids is most likely autistic/adhd (we're in the process of getting the correct diagnosis). Just add me if you like!

[cemetaries]

We definitely have a lot in common. Adding!

[merrileemakes]

You sound like a lovely chill person. I also joined DW again recently seeking community, and I'm so enjoying the woke, supportive vibes.

I'm a similar age, also queer, also experiencing disability and woke AF. Friends?

[cemetaries]

Adding you!

[krakendelsur]

I'm 36, hella "woke", and have several common interests (art, writing, photography, thrifting, theater, etc). Care to be friends?

[cemetaries]

Adding!

[keplers_angels]

Hey there.
Old school LJer too. 46 yo.
We have some intersecting interests and the whim has overcome me. I'll add you. Hi Friend!

[cemetaries]

Adding you back! I love that all the OG LJ people are trying to back into this format. I get so disenchanted by other soical media sites right now.

[irreversibly]

Oh, hello! A bit late to the party, but I hope you're still going to try this DW thing. It's always great when people come back to it! Journaling sites like this deserve to make a comeback, it fits a niche that 'modern' social media sites really can't.
I'm also an old LJer, in my 40s, queer pagan witch and into things like HP and SW. Nice to meet you!

[cemetaries]

Added you back! I am definitely going to give this a try!

Hi Hi Lilith. I am Ember. ::wave::

You are interesting and your username caught my eye (I grew up around them). I too am quite "woke" and post about good and bad things as well. This is my initial addme post if you want more info about me.

Let me know if you'd like to be friends/subscribe. :)

[cemetaries]

Your username is super cool to me as well. I would love to add you!

[death_beat]

Wooty woot! Adding/subscribing neow. n.n

[mahmfic]

Hi there. We have some fandoms in common like Star Wars, Marvel, Harry Potter. Similar deal breakers. I've been on LJ since 2007 or 2008 😅 Still over there actually.

Here's my post: https://addme.dreamwidth.org/628576.html

Awesome! I would love to add you!
