I made this account in 2022 but abandoned it for a while. I feel very new to this! It took me five minutes just to work out how to join and post here 🙃


Name: June, they/them

Age: 30s!

I mostly post about: My knitting and other craft pursuits, my health (it’s kind of bad, guys) in terms of life updates usually, and my solo rpg games, so far. If I talk about food I’ll make it filterable when I work out… how.

I hope I’ll expand as I get a wider social circle. It’s weird to blog at myself.

My hobbies are: Knitting, writing, solo RPG games, cross-stitch, birdwatching (sort of, I most sit by a window while chilling and watch the birds fight over the bird feeder) paper flowers. I’m currently largely housebound, my hobbies are Indoors Things at the moment. When I AM outside in The Beast (my powerchair) I’ll probably spam pictures of the sky and urban pigeons.

My fandoms are: Star Trek (though I’m SO behind on everything new. I watched half of discovery and nothing else since), Dragon Age, Mass Effect. Flight Rising! Terry Pratchett, The Foreigner Series. I don’t spend a huge amount of time posting about those, these days, though.

I’m looking to meet people who are: Kind, open-minded.

When I add people, my dealbreakers are: Racism, LGBTQ+phobia, Islamophobia, ableism, fatphobia—you get the gist, I hope. If you consider yourself to be ‘a Conservative’ we will probably not get along, let’s save ourselves the bother.

No under 18s, please!

Name: Eddie

Age: 35

I mostly post about: My life, my cat, Fred Hechinger, Joseph Quinn and different movies/TV. I also write fic/poetry.

My hobbies are: writing, drawing, witchcraft/magick, listening to music, watching TV, and watching movies. Travel, if I had that money.

My fandoms are: Fred Hechinger, Joseph Quinn, Stranger Things, and whatever things are on the back burner. I'm very multifandom.

I'm looking to meet people who: are super cool and chill. Somebody who I can talk to and laugh with, and exchange journal comments with.

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

When I add people, my dealbreakers are: Close-mindedness. Rudeness.

Before adding me, you should know: I ship "problematic" things. I'm of a time where it was 'ship and let ship' and all was for fun. If you've got an issue with it, please don't add me.

No minors, please. I'm in my thirties, and I post about adult things.

1) A day at the office. It's nice to see colleagues again after some weeks of working from home ^^

2) Going for a walk during lunchbreak. There is a shop near the office where they sell the most delicious granola 

3) Meeting up with Lhune this evening after dinner :-)

1) Breakfast on my sunny balcony before the clouds came in.

2) Early sunshine inspired me to do a couple of pilates stretches (I’m usually not an early bird ^^)

3) Dinner at my parents’s place

1) We had fun at the late Easter celebration with my godchild yesterday ^_^ Extra good since we had sunshine opposed to the rain today

2) Time to read an old Agatha Christie again

3) I managed to solve a problem with the documents I had been putting off way too long ^^

OK So. Li and I booked a tennis court for an hour at our local sports centre yesterday evening. We almost didn't go because the weather was crappy - it was drizzling, I didn't sleep well last night, was a little work stressed.

But in the end, we did go. I was so excited that there was like no anxiety. Although it helped that we went and saw the place on Sunday and knew it was going to be quiet (yay safety behaviours, or something?) It flared a couple of times when I realised people on treadmills in the gym could see us, and there was a couple of times some kids on the skate park were watching us. I get super paranoid about being a fat person trying to exercise :/

Slight tangent. Anyway. So we borrowed a couple of rackets and balls from the place. We were both completely convinced we were never going to be able to hit the ball, that we were only going to manage like 5, maybe 10 minutes, because we're both very unfit, and I had no idea how my joints were going to behave.

Y'all, we were out there for the entire hour and by the end of it, we were both moving pretty well. I was even almost jogging for balls at one point - I wasn't thinking about how I was moving, I wasn't scared I was going to fall or throw something out, I was just reacting to and reaching for the ball. I hurt like fuck two hours later, doped up nicely on naproxen and cocodamol and cbd and I'm very glad I took my crutches for the walk home.

We were basically doing drop feeds from the service box, initially just trying to connect ball to racket and over the net. Then go retrieve it from the back of the court cos neither of us could return it and there were no ball kids 😂 But as time went on, we were starting to hit returns, I tried out a few backhands. My aim is terrible but I'm starting to figure out power and reach. Li's the other way around - their aim is good but they haven't figured out the power. By the end of the hour, we managed like a 3 or 4 shot rally. Like, the ball was still bouncing two or three times but we were reaching it, hitting it back.

We were maybe 30 minutes in and we were both like 'yeah no i want my own racket' so tomorrow (maybe Sunday depending on my legs) we're going to go to the wee sports shop in town, try out some of their rackets, pick up some low-compression balls. If we don't find anything, we're heading into Exeter next weekend and there's a Sports Direct there. Li also wants some new trainers. I do not need new trainers but I am eyeing a pair of Nike Air Monarch IV.

One thing's for sure. We are absolutely going back to that tennis court next week!

1) After 4 days of inactivity, my old watch suddenly decided to start working again \o/ Almost a miracle ^_~ I’ll still turn it in with a watchmaker to give it a full check-up but i’m happy I can use it until then. EDIT it’s going on and off again ^^’ The good thing is that I can now borrow a watch while I wait for it to be fixed

Name: Rhi, rhymes with sea, she/her

Age: early 30s

I mostly post about: Probably mostly books I read, music, fandom, and for the foreseeable future my much-planned writing project of noir biofuturistic middle-aged vampire lesbian erotica

My hobbies are: Writing, reading, music, being in nature (not "hiking" because I'm disabled but ykwim), watching video game letsplays

My fandoms are: Arthuriana, Skyrim, Baldur's Gate 3, Dragon Age (the first two), Homer, Dracula, Nero Wolfe, TTRPGs in general, a lot of random books

I'm looking to meet people who: I might gravitate toward accounts that also post about books, or post fandom meta...post about music...but I like hearing from people who have interests different from mine, too, as long as everyone's on a similar page on humans respecting each other as covered in the dealbreakers question :p

My posting schedule tends to be: Probably less than once a day and more than once a week

When I add people, my dealbreakers are:
My journal is 18+ only.
Bigotry including but not limited to racism, transphobia, ablism, sexism, or religious intolerance (including weirdos who hate atheists).
Strongly believing there is such a thing as "good art" and "bad art." Using "sees nuance" to mean "agrees with me."
