Real life about me behind the cut. Skip if you want! )

I originally set up a Dreamwidth account because it seemed like a lot of the old LJ-style fandom stuff moved here. I'm still trying to get the hang of the platform mostly because I am out of practice with blogging. Please bare with me as I try to get back in the swing of things.

I tend to be a bit of a fandom-hopper. I follow the dopamine, lol. I do have a few standards that I tend to drift back to like the MCU and Game of Thrones. I was once always comfortable in the Harry Potter fandom, but I absolutely do not agree with the author's stances on trans rights and find myself avoiding it more often than not. I may one day post my very complicated feelings on HP, but that's a whole other can of worms.

[archiveofourown.org profile] Meilan_Firaga is where you'll find my fanfic and one or two original works.

If you need my date of birth for age verification or some other reason it is March 22, 1988.

If you're looking for information about my fic/art preferences for an exchange, event, or just because that can be found HERE. It probably needs an update (perpetually, lol).

Tiny update because I don't want everyone thinking that I was super active for like a week and a half and then gave up. I'm still thinking about DW and fandom basically every day (and trying not to beat myself up for every day I don't post/comment/interact), but these last couple weeks have been extra tough. Work is stressful, but that's honestly a good stress right now because it's coming from an increase in responsibility that I wanted and more freedom to be creative. The problem is that when work stress ends for the day, state-of-the-world stress is still right there and waiting to shank me in the kidney. 

I'm neurodivergent. Part of the LGBTQIA+ community. Non-Christian. Every person in my social circle fits one or more of those descriptors. I have trans friends and trans family. And we all live in the US. 

So, I'm gonna need a little grace. I'm no longer just recalibrating my day-to-day life to account for additional work responsibilities. I have to recalibrate my entire life for survival. I have to figure out how to cling to my sanity. I'm trying to figure out how to be kind to myself as I make all this adjustments for myself to be able to move forward.

And I am 100% going to pop a blood vessel if I have to tell one more person that being autistic doesn't make you throw a nazi salute. Being a nazi does.

I've been basically gone from DW and fandom in general for a while, so I thought a life update might be a good idea. Everything's under a cut so I don't take up too much Reading Page space. :)
