(no subject)

Name: Solstice

Age: 30s

I mostly post about: Anything that catches my attention long enough, be it various media (music, shows, games, books), hobbies, crafts, current events, or personal life. Also round ups of things I found interesting, and miscellaneous kitchen experiments.

My hobbies are: Reading, journaling, bookbinding, stationery (+fountain pens), tea, art

My fandoms are: They tend to come and go like an ever-turning wheel, but at the moment they are Bleach, The Apothecary Diaries, and Witch Hat Atelier. Although, note that I am the kind of fan who tends to just go heart eyes and throws heart confetti at fics/art/meta instead of posting my own stuff.

I'm looking to meet people who: Are not overly judgmental, appreciate text-heavy posts, and have similar or adjacent interests. I'm open to meeting people who have no shared interests, though! The overlap just makes it easier to talk.

My posting schedule tends to be: Based on how I post on other sites, sporadic. Multiple times a week when something's going down, such as now, when I'm moving from Pillowfort. But more likely long posts around twice or thrice a month, with some micro posts in between.

When I add people, my dealbreakers are:

Bigotry, hate speech, and dehumanizing language.
Undisclosed AI use.
Unlabeled graphic content, be it sexual, violent, or just plain gross. Nothing personal against them, but for these things I'd rather find them intentionally instead of incidentally.
Proselytizing, and religious supremism.

Before adding me, you should know:

There might be times I'm too tired to English and may post journals in Filipino instead.
I am a chronic lurker, and new to Dreamwidth, so I'm figuring out how to do low-energy interactions (such as simply hitting a 'like' or 'heart' to show I appreciate the post/comment, or to show emotional support) without being a bit spammy.
I like darker aesthetics and themes in my media, and I might post something like a song with a scary-looking album cover, or look closely at a character who is morally ambiguous or has definitely done something terrible.

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

Welcome to Dreamwidth! The people here are really nice and supportive. And being a lurker is great. I think lurking is underrated. (I myself am mainly a lurker, posting comments only when I have time and I think I might be adding value. Otherwise, it's generally better if I just shut up. But I like reading what other people are up to, even if I'm not actively responding to their posts.)

You sound very much my kind of people. Pretty much all our hobbies overlap, although I am a coffee person more than a tea person. Maybe we can be friends!
