Okay, so, qrd on me:

trans girl she/her in like a 90% binary way but ehh a little personal genderfuckery as a treat
it's all complicated when brain is a fuck but would not be wrong to call me baby leftist, but even if my more detailed conception of shit gets lost in mind haze I feel like I see through a lot of shit in society.
honestly not sure how much I'll be active per se here but nice to have a presence and also place of evidently great support if needed.
interests are shifting all autistic hyperfixation style but current trends are being a spec evo nerd, lasting interests in Undertale/Deltarune, FNAF, Danganronpa, currently replaying Half-Life series because this shit is so good actually now that I'm not playing it as a repressing middle schooler. (now I'm the moderate but also very substantial upgrade of trans older teenager junior year in high school wow)
also tbh only heard of this place from a friend, his propaganda worked
lazily reusing my Reddit username with all the brainwormed history that comes with it I feel I've improved a lot from just how mentally fucked I was, say, a year ago.

perhaps we could benefit from a little pillory march where we announce our old reddit usernames, as a little memento mori

Introductions

You are not logged in. However you can subscribe from another Fediverse account, for example Lemmy or Mastodon. To do this, paste the following into the search field of your instance: !howdy@hexbear.net

Howdy! This is a comm for new and old users alike to introduce themselves and what their hobbies/interests are. This is also a good place to ask questions on anything you'd like to know more about, and generally to get acquainted with Hexbear and its users.

Rule #1: DON'T DOX YOURSELF - Don't post/comment any personal identifying information. Obviously it's ok to talk about yourself, but make sure there is no information that could potentially lead to doxxing yourself.

Rule #2: BE NICE - Assume everyone making a post here is doing so in good faith. Keep in mind that people introducing themselves may have limited knowledge of site history, in-jokes, etc. Also keep in mind that new people might not have the same understanding of leftist theory and/or knowledge of global politics that you do. We were all there once, so it's not a bad thing to be reasonably understanding and patient with new folks. Likewise, for those who are introducing yourselves, please have an open mind, be willing to interact and make friends, and don't come here with the intent to start fights.

Rule #3: DON'T BE A JERK - Any sort of transphobia, racism, homophobia, ableism, or other forms of bigotry will lead to an immediate ban. Similarly, harassment, being a creep, "chaser" behavior, or anything else done to make others feel uncomfortable will be dealt with harshly. Also try to keep any fediverse drama to a minimum. It's assumed new users are posting here to make friends and not to wade into any previous or existing conflict between instances, so please be respectful of that.

Rule #4: TRY TO BE HELPFUL - It's encouraged to help newcomers wherever possible, including explaining various aspects of this community, providing helpful resources, sharing similar interests you may have, and suggesting comms that they may be interested in.

Rule #5: USE CONTENT WARNINGS - For anything that might be considered a sensitive topic, please use the spoiler format along with a content warning to give people a heads up on what is being discussed.

If anyone has any feedback or any suggestions for improvement to this comm, don't hesitate to reach out to the mods here. Thanks!
