2. the main nav button gives you links to other pages on here to get more info. take a look around!

TUNES!!

I listen to a lot of music. If you already know me and hear me yapping from time to time in person or online, or maybe you just see my band shirts, it is obvious that it is pretty center to my identity/sense of self/interests.I listen to a lot of classic rock when I'm drunk, and often only enjoy Zeppelin in that state; When i'm high, I listen to Melvins, Santana, and Mercyful Fate; When I'm yearning, you'll catch me listening to Derek & The Dominos, Lizzy McAlpine, and Father John Misty; when I'm nostalgic, I'll be jamming to 5 Seconds of Summer or One Direction; when I need to spike my heart rate, I'll have The Warning, Hellripper, or The Black Dahlia Murder in regular rotation.
I think you get the point.

damn, you're nosy!
just kidding, I don't care. ;)I have had a complicated relationship with my gender for a long time. I'm working it out. I've never felt like a "woman" in every sense of the term and have no connection to "womanhood" and yet, that is how everyone sees me. I'll figure it out, I'm sure.If you have any advice, hit up my protonmail, text me, send me anything you'd like, I'd love to chat.

I see you got curious.
if you're under 21 or someone I don't know well, I'd appreciate that you don't inquire further.If you're a friend and want my fetlife / private tumblr (and I trust you), hmu!
