Reading

Current Mood: hopeful

nice to meet you ✨

Name: Meep
Pronouns: æ/ær, ey/em, or she/her
Age: 36
Location: Tokyo, Japan (from New England, USA)

I mostly post about… my daily life - work (international school librarian) and school (MA Humanities, Self Designed - focusing on imagination as a form of escape from capitalism) but my conversion journey to Judaism, also pretty flowers I saw today; interesting things I read; Shinto shrines I visited; and my cat, Tiamat.

The hobbies I'm trying to monetize/professionalize are… writing - picture books, poetry
The hobbies I'm not trying to monetize/professionalize are… crochet, writing - queer romance, doll photography, indie web design, getting my nails done

I'm looking to meet people who… are adults (21+ only, non-negotiable because of my day job), post about your daily life (whatever that looks like), interact occasionally (I don't expect comments on every post!), and aren't -ist/-phobic, you know? no transphobes, no biphobes, no Islamophobes, etc. welcome here!

My posting schedule tends to be: I post at least once a day most days, often more; I use the "Don't show on Reading pages" ticky-box for inane thoughts or when I'm really on a hypergraphia tear and try to put excessively long posts under a cut.

When I add people, my dealbreakers are: (See above, and…) I am a genderqueer asexual lesbian converting to Judaism [with a non-Zionist rabbi] so I think you can guess. If you voted for the current U.S. president or you are very concerned about """fairness in women's sports""" but aren't talking about the pay disparity between the NBA and the WNBA we are not going to get along.

Commenting expectations: I post a lot but I don't expect comments on every single thing! I try to comment when I have something to say but I won't spam you.

henlo.

Got long. Behind a cut in case it otherwise would stretch out people's reading pages.

Thanks for reading. Even if you don't add me I hope you have a good day!

Age: 30-something

I mostly post about:
Stories from my life — my thoughts and feelings, especially during this time of war in Ukraine. I try to capture emotions honestly: memories of a peaceful past, reflections on the present, and tales from my life as a mariner and traveler.
This journal is still in its early days, after a long break from writing. Each entry is posted in both English and the original language. I also share my own photographs — from different times, chosen to reflect my current mood.

My hobbies are:
Photography (almost professional), lomography (daily photos of interesting moments), music (acoustic, alternative, instrumental covers), psychology, and classical literature. I love discovering new things — ideas, places, people, sope psychology, discovering the World.

My fandoms are:
Honestly, I’m not active in any specific fandom. But I enjoy reading and learning, especially to improve my English.

I'm looking to meet people who:
…feel connected to what I write — kindred spirits or simply those who find meaning in my words. I’m open to everyone (with one exception: I don’t welcome those who support or excuse the war). My posts are open and honest. I’d love to find new interesting people to read and connect with.

My posting schedule tends to be:
Currently daily, or a few times a week — depending on my free time and possibility.

When I add people, my dealbreakers are:
No major dealbreakers — most of what matters is already said above.

Before adding me, you should know:
I’m an open person without any particular agenda. I’m Ukrainian — and perhaps that matters now, just to avoid misunderstandings.
Welcome aboard. These are my messages in a bottle.

Age: 20-something

I mostly post about: cartoons and video games that absolutely didn't have me as the target audience (like, stuff for girls, but i'm not a girl lol), my beautiful life, whatever i'm currently enjoying, art because i draw, photography because i take photos, translation because i translate, and i like to share links (which are mostly about leftism, history, language, cultures, ~otaku~ stuff, race, webcomics, etc.)

My hobbies are: besides the ones previously stated and the ones implied (such as playing video games), i also like to listen to music

My fandoms are: honestly, i don't think i'm "a part" of any fandom. i do my own thing. but i do like angelique, fire emblem (4 and 16 the best), and guilty gear. in general, i like shoujo animanga and otome games a lot. visual kei too. for all things i like, i lean towards things from around my year of birth and earlier.

I'm looking to meet people who: won't mind my nonsense on their reading pages, since finding people with the exact same interests is impossible. people with adjacent interests would be nice. so would people who translate, speak japanese or spanish, are transgender, or are black. being nonjudgmental and accepting of weirdos is a requirement.

My posting schedule tends to be: near daily if you're on my access list, but if not then... definitely frequent, but could vary from daily to monthly.

When I add people, my dealbreakers are: bigots with a special emphasis on transphobia and racism, posting mainly about live-action shows unless the cast is all or mostly POC, anti-socialists, netflixvania fans, being rude and mean for no apparent reason

Before adding me, you should know: you should read my sticky <3 thanks for reading all this. nice to meet you ^^
