random facts about me
I'm good at summarizing the more obvious, interesting and socially relevant parts of me well - what hobbies and sports I do, what I work as, favorite color, favorite animals, my favorite music etc. but I feel like I regurgitate that stuff so often and it's very basic, so here's more particular stuff, in no meaningful order.
- I have and play a lot of cozy farming games and I am planning to get more. Stardew Valley, Coral Island, Fields of Mistria, Palia, Animal Crossing etc. aren't enough!!
- I wish I had antlers on my head. I would also love to find some shed ones in the forest one day.
- I would rather be told the truth and realistic chances of something than be deluded with positive twists, false hope, and all that. I do better with being told something bad and mentally adjusting to that, than anticipating something better and being let down.
- I have dyscalculia and aphantasia. This makes pen and paper sessions extra special...
- I usually identify more deeply with alien or robot characters.
- The first few things probably already made your radar go off, but just in case it didn't: I am indeed on the spectrum.
- I hate when I write a thoughtful message that is a bit longer and someone comments about how much I type or how long it is, and has nothing else to add. I think it's one of the top things you can piss me off with.
- I have extremely long eyelashes.
- I used to moderate the MelonLand forum. So if you think I am familiar...
- I am very impatient and it's my biggest weakness.
- I like pineapple on pizza. I even like asparagus and hollandaise on pizza.
- I used to walk on my toes a lot as a kid.
- I'm better at drawing/painting/sculpting landscapes and objects than bodies.
- I like to stir the pasta into the sauce in the pan, instead of combining it on the plate.
- I tend to be overly organized, cleanly, a bit rigid in my schedule and have high expectations for myself and others. I heard that it makes me intimidating, a bit unapproachable and it sometimes makes people feel judged.
- I can rant weirdly about Maslov's hierarchy.
- In the WFH discourse, I am clearly on the side of WFH.
- I am very interested in data protection law and pharma law.
- I am a pro at fishing minigames in games. No matter what, I will fish that fish for you.
- I love shiny cardboard.
- My sense of smell and sound is annoyingly sensitive.
- Images of baby birds with their mouth open in the nest make me cry.
- On a keyboard, I write with my (acrylic or press on) nails, not my finger tips.
- I like sorting the toy bricks into piles before building.
- I am /not/ on WhatsApp, Facebook, Instagram, Threads, X, Bluesky, Cohost, SpaceHey, Mastodon, Reddit, Tumblr, Microblog, Youtube or TikTok.
