get to know me post i can pin to my profile?
i suppose i may as well.

i play music. i’ve been in bands for years.
some very active ones.
but never as a career, despite attempts.
been transitioning a long time.

basically i’m a middle aged artist brained lesbian.
i was going to read tonight.

but it’s almost 1:30am & i just decided to call it a night on work and… try & get everything else done tomorrow.

sewing, packaging, packing…

tomorrow… more packing. and loading. and shoveling. because my loading area is all packed with snow.

going to be a long day.

today’s just been … rancid vibes all day.
February 10, 2026 at 3:13 AM
with the ever tightening noose of social media …

and online communities being the only real community i have these days, despite (years of) efforts to the contrary,

maybe this is the year i drop off the internet and everybody forgets i exist.
maybe this is the year i essentially leave the internet.

of course it’s not like i have anything to fall back on.

what queer community i have (tenuous) exists online.

so as things shrink…
there goes more of my connections to people.

and honestly … i’m already more isolated than is normal or mentally healthy for a person.
this is just putting up more layers of separation.
well.
on top of the discord news. which likely will be shrinking even more online community access,

the state i live in is officially no longer doing gender marker changes on licenses as of today.
mine is done. but my personal worry is that they’ll follow texas’ lead and revert on renewals.

i would like for the winter to be over now.

the cold & all this snow just kinda…
it’s doing a number on me from multiple directions. complicating work a bunch. i have to bundle up like a potato & feel awful about my appearance. nobody’s out doing things, so i spend my time alone…

can it get warm?
February 8, 2026 at 8:40 PM
but for real:
who the fuck is this?
February 8, 2026 at 2:51 AM
there's so much trans media that centers on trauma or body horror....

but what about some of us who just want a good regular drama or romcom or something?

why's it all got to be so... dark? (ok. i know why. but it's a lot sometimes. and a happy escape would be nice for variety.)
February 7, 2026 at 2:29 AM
because music, my life has been more heavily documented than some.
years and years of band shots. and videos. from regional shows. tours. etc.

everyone now and then i find something i’d forgotten and it’s so strange. like “who the fuck is that? is THAT what i looked like?”
February 7, 2026 at 1:58 AM
damn. new MØL album released last week and i totally missed it.

this whole blackgaze thing is… very much my jam. in its various forms. (including Holy Fawn and Som. bands like that. though møl tends to have more black metal vocals. which i’m here for)
February 6, 2026 at 10:03 PM
apparently it’s bandcamp friday,

SO

go preorder the Ameokama record. (on vinyl. that’s a new thing as of today, i think)

OR you could get stuff from one of my bands.

incidentally, this is what i wore TO the show last night. (masked, as alway. but… still put on a full face because why not?)
February 6, 2026 at 2:17 AM
ok. today was productive.

shot like…42 products and edited them. updated images on the website. listed 8 new products.

i think it’s time to call it. otherwise i’m liable to just keep working
February 6, 2026 at 2:13 AM
ok. so modular heads:

former roommate bought a modular unit without realizing that’s what it was. (a noise generator)

what’s the simplest way to… make that into something useable?
i told him to hang on to it. but i know nothing of modular.

is this 2X Knoll hoodie readable? debatable.
it IS comfy, though.

not leaving the house today. i don’t think.
February 5, 2026 at 7:54 PM
picked up the Knoll record As Spoken last night.
(no. i didn’t buy agriculture. because i’ve already got them all on vinyl)

and then @eversonpoe.bsky.social ‘s Enough Is A Myth showed up in the mail today.

this collection is getting out of hand.
February 5, 2026 at 7:26 PM
what do you do when you’re a middle aged former scene kid metal head who still goes to shows?

… buy oversized illegible hoodies to wear with leggings when you’re working from home.

ps. Knoll and Agriculture both ripped last night. even if it meant getting home around 4:15 am.
February 5, 2026 at 6:53 PM
gdi.

driving home and had a deer encounter. car is … damaged but ok. only seems to be cosmetic damage. but still.
February 5, 2026 at 7:56 AM
hey chicago?

if your venue is surrounded by permit only neighborhood parking? maybe don’t fucking book nationally touring bands that will require people coming from out of town

i’ve been driving around for half an hour with nowhere to fucking park. i’m half tempted to go the fuck home. i’m pissed

so this year…

i switched to enthanate.
i was originally trained by my former doctors office with only one needle (23) for everything.

with the enthanate, also swapped to draw and injection needles separate (different sizes). and suddenly shots are super easy again.

today i went exploring.
found a hobby store that sold gundams.

also… woman running it gendered me correctly the entire time, which

i’ll be honest, i’ve been feeling like a clocky potato for a while. so being reminded that most people just see a weird alt woman is a good reminder.
February 3, 2026 at 11:21 PM
ok. i’ve found a hobby. other than the nearly all consuming one that is music.

gunpla.

hey… it’s a start, right?
so…
i’ve asked this before, but…

i’m not sure i really understand hobbies? or how to have them?

like. i have music. but that’s an obsession past what i consider hobby territory.
and i collect things. but thats not really a … hobby, prepay?

i dont feel like i really have any hobbies.
February 3, 2026 at 7:40 PM
nope.

nobody seems to have a solution for this one.

no surprises there.
actually, it would have been a surprise if someone DID have a suggestion.
if anybody knows how to DIY a BA…
