I don't know if I ever did an #introduction post on here, so here's one:
Hi, I'm Minx and I'm a #queer #bisexual #dad. I have #depression and #anxiety-issues, which tends to make me less-than-social and low #spoons. (But I started working on those, so yay!)
People describe me as #reallychill but I'm actually #screaminginside. ๐
I love #notebooks, #fountainpens, #dippens and pretty much anything to do with #paper. (#BOOKS!!!
)
There are still traces of #art schooling in me, I guess.
Never got payed for coding, though.
Currently, I work in a #copyshop. A #CopyJob, if you will.
I think I got the job in parts because I mentioned enjoying #bookbinding, like, as a hobby. For some reason, nobody there believed that. ๐คท
So now I spend a considerably amount of worktime ... BINDING THINGS!
๐
(Mostly coil/wire binding, but they have this #gluebinding machine... ๐ )
Anyway, so that's most of me, I guess.
Hi.
The person who interviewed me (internally) for my current job didn't believe that I'm super into spreadsheets and that I make a bunch for my own pleasure and stuff and she kept trying to tell me (during the interview) that I was young and should stay in the sales team because I'd enjoy that much more than spreadsheets and "boring" work.
I very nearly shouted "my #autistic ass loves spreadsheets and routine so much more than talking to people you judgy cockwomble".
Ps. Hi.
(Briefly thought about following some of my friends into studying #art professionally, but decided I lacked both consistent #style and #bullshitting ability necessary for that.
So instead I got into #programming, mostly in #python. I love coding weird stuff, like #procgen #zines or #bots that tell people how #queer a thing is and my hard disk is littered with projects that went nowhere.
(Like I still have a couple gigs of GG tweets I wanted to analyze using #SocialNetworkAnalysis.)
