Hi there, I go by Heather. I've on/off lurked here for going on a few months now.
I can't recall exactly what enticed me enough to know I wanted to join, but I believe it was one of the mission statements on the 'About' page of the main site.
That and I've been looking for a Net 1.0-style internet forum to be a part of for some time already anyhow. I haven't used one probably since... probably 2013/2014.
I'm not sure how to introduce myself in this instance. Given I usually know at least one or two people when I get into groups, but it was by complete chance I found this place.
If ya wanna know about me; I'm from Alabama (but don't live there anymore), I'm twenty-four, I work at an auto parts store and I'm a struggling art and wanna-be game developer.
Spent a lot of time after highschool taking care of a sickly grandfather who only ever got worse up until he suddenly passed. In that time I spent a lot of effort working on games I wasn't prepared for.
There is proof of my claims/statements here online, although most of my art from the '2019-early this year' period is now lost because my last Twitter account was suspended.
I made a totally-legit-and-not-a-joke " " " Death threat " " ", ya know... to a close friend who I frequently spoke/speak to both there and through Discord. That incident, plus the general way the larger known sites
handle their policy making and administration (not to mention all being homogenous in terms of visuals and usage), made me strive for a place like.... well, this one, I hope.
I'm not sure what'll cultivate here. I'd like to bring *something* interesting to the table. But I work so much so often for so little pay. At least I'm not homeless, I suppose, but the economy isn't getting anymore stable.
Hate to bring up such a serious topic on my first post, but I cannot stress just how Stressful everything is these days. I only really feel any "peace" whenever I pop edibles.
So, maybe getting to meet new people would help me sort of keep calm during all the storms going on. And hey, even if I don't end up posting here too often, I still respect that people are hosting a site like this.
Maybe I'll post some art up here now and then, too; see if that interests anyone here. // My style isn't really "anime", which seems to be what most people like here (which is fine, people like what they like.)
Here's a drawing I did while I was waiting to clock in a few days ago. It's rare I just start randomly doodling, since I usually spend any time drawing working on game assets.
(He's a gas station attendant of some sort lol )
Welp. I think that's enough out of me for one night. I'll poke my nose+eyes&ears around and see if any other threads interest me. Much appreciation if anyone read even a little of this - Heather
