Finally making a pinned post, so here we go:

Ancient Elder Millennial Cryptid • Polyamorous Lesbian • Nonbinary Trans Femme • Awkward & Weird

I'm a gamer of all kinds, from video to tabletop. I have a particular fondness for classic L5R, FFXIV, and Eternal Darkness. Yes, I know how to play MtG.
I'm going to start telling people who ask me why questions about myself (like why my name is what it is or why I'm nonbinary) I'm just going to start matter-of-factly telling them, "You know, because of the wizard," like it's the most obvious thing in the world.

It occurs to me that while it sucks that almost no one at my job has bothered to find out my name still after over a year of working here, if they don't know my name, they can't deadname me.

I am genuinely starting to wonder how many small, incremental changes in appearance and presentation I can make before people at work start questioning whether I'm 100% cis and straight...

Am...am I entering into some kind of supportive, encouraging big sister phase? Is that what is happening?

The sheer length of time I was sublimating my femme desire to wear dresses and skirts as "I have Scottish ancestry, so maybe I should look into appropriate kilts to wear sometimes" is still staggering to me.

How many times will I frustratedly question the design decisions that went into Shadow Labyrinth before either dropping it entirely or finally beating it (and then deleting it forever)?

Gen II with the Odyssey 2. I remember playing KC Munchkin, Pickaxe Pete, and the like.

The console belonged to my mom, though. The first console that was 'mine' was the NES.
I started all the way back at the 3rd Gen.

How about you?

I might be back on my bullshit again...

(This is my glamor for BTN and I call it my lesbian lumberjack fit.)

*muffled screaming continues*
No, I love receiving wifi from upstairs down in the basement. It's totally fine that my ping is 3x what it was in my old apartment when it doesn't randomly drop altogether when testing to see if I can play FFXIV now. It's fine for it to take all day to download game updates.

Well. I beat Elden Ring. How'd that happen?

I need to find a sound clip of Handler Walter saying, "Got a job for you, 621," for my work phone.

Does it count as coming out as a lesbian if I just scream it into the void of the internet in the middle of the night?

I don't know what it says about anything that the most excited I've been about most things in a good while is because someone recognized my tattoo, which is based off a semi-obscure (to most people) card game that started in the 90s.

Banzai to the Scorpion Clan!

Lately I've been really struggling with certain labels and self-identifiers and whether I (me, personally) am allowed to claim them for myself.

I somehow feel like I look insufficiently femme and am too firmly a nonbinary cryptid to be allowed to consider calling myself a lesbian.

You know the lack of interpersonal connection is getting bad when I have to stop myself from tangent infodumping at a meeting with housemates.
