Thanks on the compliment!

Yeah, I’m semi-retired. My first & longest job was as a radio news broadcaster at my local AM country station, I largely did evening news broadcasts but I also did sports broadcasts for the local high school teams across sports & I covered the local school district. I got my start through a friend I had in theater & by the end I was the operations manager & trained every worker who now works there. I also did some work at my college at an assistant chief copy editor, reporter & head of the diversity chair. I also did editing work on a podcast with a journalist exchange between the US & Yemen.

The reason I call myself semi-retired is I got really pushed out by the journalism department at my college due to my disabilities & hostility at the paper for both my disabilities & being very openly trans. I’m largely fine with this because it wasn’t a great environment but I wouldn’t hate going back to radio work.

And cool! I’ll put a request in.

it’s nice to be here & try this place out. It’s nice to see a place so queer & leftist centered. I’m not super thrilled about the prospect of losing my wrestling community without there being much of a space here to replace it.
