killerqueerHappy (Belated) New Year, folks!
The Icebreaker Challenge: Introduce yourself. Tell us why you're doing the challenge, and what you hope to gain from it.
I'm killerqueer 🐉 I go by R — I'm in my 30s, my pronouns are they/he, my favorite color is green and I live in the Pacific Northwest of the USA! I'm a crafter (knitting/sewing/etc), I've been in fandom spaces on and off for over 20 years at this point, and I am both a fic writer and an artist! My current hyperfixation is Knives Out (specifically Wake Up Dead Man), but I am also into M*A*S*H, Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency, Star Trek, Avatar: The Last Airbender (OG Cartoon ofc), Buffy the Vampire Slayer, The X-files, Les Mis, and many other fandoms! I have also been studying Spanish for the past year and have made quite a bit of progress, which I'm very proud of!
I'm a little late to the party, but I just found and decided to do do the![[community profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/community.png)
snowflake_challengebecause I've been wanting to get more active on Dreamwidth/maybe make some friends in a more connection-based, old school forum like this. I've been really struggling the last year and a half, both materially/physically and mentally/emotionally. I lost my job due to budget cuts in August of 2024 and have been on that unemployment grind for the last 18 months which is seriously killing me, and my various chronic illnesses and poor mental health have been really putting me through the wringer. Other online spaces have been tough for me lately, so spending time on a more slow-paced/less popularity-contest driven style of social media is particularly appealing to me. I hope that I'll be able to make some new friends/find folks with similar interests to me!
