As we're trying to do more #fandom#introductions on #Mastodon lately, I'm going to bring up a new one like @broximar did yesterday with video games, but lining up with one I had started on #Twitter before.
Fan of #yuri and #GL, also read a lot of #BL (current main fandom is #TGCF). If you have a #danmei novel or comic you consider a hidden gem, feel free to talk about it to me.
Big fan of #YuzuruHanyu also. If there are any #fanyu around here, let me in on the party too!
Now that I’m settling into the server, I should do a proper #introduction post!
I’m Selenay on pretty much every platform I’m on (except tumblr where I’m selenay936, grr). I’m a #fanfic reader and writer and have been for long enough that my #AO3 account turned 13 yesterday 😮
I’ve traveled through many fandoms over the last two decades and am currently deep in #mdzs#wangxian. My forever fandom is #DoctorWho.
I post about fan stuff, #cats, #embroidery and life in general. Hello!
Hello!
I'm a data engineer from #Maine, where I live with my partner and two cats.
I've been lurking in #fandom since 2006, the year I learned to read and got internet access. I am here because I'd like to interact more around fandom topics, which have been a lifelong source of joy for me.
I especially enjoy #StarTrek, #HarryPotter, #ATLA, #LOTR, #Silmarillion
Hi! I'm a lifelong programmer with a passion for #Scala and good engineering, which has led me in the direction of #FP. As of relatively recently, I'm on the #Typelevel Steering Committee.
#Introduction (tree)Frogie, she/her. queer american. I write fanfic. and stare far too hard at (fictional) beer signs in (fictional) bars and contemplate the societal implications of an entire generation of landed gentry being gay.
i knit, and sew, and sometimes cook better than others. Right now, I'm NaNo'ing, so this is prime distraction.
Pro-ship, pro-kinktomato, pro-lifelong fandom.
Jumped into this and never did an #introductions / #introduction post.
I'm Gareth, I'm in Victoria, Australia.
Twitter was one of my main social outlets, and with that going down the plughole I'm hoping to have some connections here. I'm a little bit socially anxious and not good at being outgoing or interacting with people in the physical world.
I enjoy a #roadtrip, I've been to all the states / territories by road except the Northern Territory (it's on my to do list).
I like #writing, and try to #write. But if I'm honest these past few years have been hard on the creativity. I did find for a time listening to #synthwave did help my creativity process a bit.
Writing wise it's mostly blogs from road trips, other experiences, the occasional long form research and #fanfiction which is the bulk of my long form fiction-based writing. Do have one or two other original fiction pieces which I've been working on for years and not getting anywhere.
Supporter of CC BY 4.0 and free culture. I like to help categorise stuff on Wikicommons, and upload photos there. Also try to upload other random content on the Internet Archive.
Okay, giving this a try. Apparently I should make an #introduction post? I’m mostly a lurker/reader, currently into #kinnporsche and #loveintheair, continuing my descent into Thai BL madness. Fandom Old, also starting to feel like RL Old as I try to learn and navigate yet another site 😅
So let’s do this pinned #Introduction thing.
I'm Alex/Ridicully, veterinarian and general misanthrope.
In some kind of #fandom for the last quarter century. Long time #otw volunteer. Very prone to volunteer for all other kinds of stuff too.
I work nights. I’m your resident grump in most situations. I do #reading, #knitting, #hiking, #exercise, #photography. I am full of useless facts. I am terrible at writing introductions and even worse at finding an end for them.
Trying for a consolidated #introduction post: hi, I’m Caroline, my handle is usually avawatson/avawtsn in #fandom spaces but I’m experimenting here. Been on #ThreePatchPodcast since around 2013, when my fandom life began properly with Sherlock in the s2 hiatus. I didn’t find another long term fandom until #TheUntamed#mdzs and cast (esp #WangYibo) in 2020. I adore fanworks, especially #fanfic, and dabble in art/shitposts (attached), #podfic, #vidding, writing, some translation, etc. More 👇
Also also I am zero COVID promoter, the COVID policies of most western countries are nothing short of genocidal. Vaccines and masks are necessary but not sufficient.
But also was thinking I didn't want to define myself by political rants here lol I just don't know what else is in me. Very tired. Late stage PhD student.
Time for our #introduction !
We are a group of researchers in #archaeology at #CambridgeUniversity (something called #CDAL ). We are challenging scientists from every fields & every level to infer what happened in an artificial world where a group of #Farmers replaced a group of #HunterGatherers . Its a game, open to anyone, using any #inference method as long as we can re-run the analysis ourself ( #OpenSource tools only, we won't pay a matlab licence to re-run your code 🙃 )
#OTW volunteer, #fanlore gardener and at this stage I'm probably a #FandomOld. Too many #fandoms to mention but I'm a #sff fan who loves books, audiobooks, #fanfic and I'm starting to get into #podfics. I'm auntaggie on #ao3 and #tumblr, but hoping to find some new folks to follow here
I'm also #irish, so there will likely be lots of retoots bout the state of the weather. Agus retoots as #gaeilge. Táim ag iarraidh mo scileanna teanga a cleachtadh 😊
