You should regularly update your introduction post, so that's what I'm doing.
You can call me Bob, and I'm a thirty-something year old living on Awabakal land (Newcastle) in Australia.
I came to the Fediverse because I valued, and wanted, conversation rather than "engagement". Kindness over the rabid hatred and bigotry that existed over on Twitter.
I liked it so much I decided to start an instance. And that's where we are now.
The main thing I talk about here is video games. I'm a fan of pretty much all gaming genres, but some of my favourites from over the years are:
Tomb Raider
Dragon Age
Cities: Skylines
Future Cop: LAPD
Transport Fever
I game on Linux!
I have a wonderful wife @Jamies, and a lot of animals. We have two cats, Pumpkin & Nutmeg, and three greyhounds, Waffle, Tim Tam & Fairy Floss.
I'm passionately anti-greyhound racing, and have fostered five rescued greyhounds in 2025 as of this post (including Floss who is a foster fail). Greyhounds are a really special breed of dog and they do not deserve the abuse, pain and needless deaths they endure every day as part of the industry.
I'm also passionately anti-bigotry, and I need to get better at verbalising it. I've watched on in shock as the world has taken lurch toward bigotry, racism, homophobia and transphobia. People should have the right to be who they authentically are without fearing being abused, attacked, or eliminated as we're seeing in the USA right now.
I'm also recently diagnosed with ADHD, which was a long time coming and a deep relief for me. I'd always felt as though something wasn't quite right in life, and that just living seemed harder for me than it is for many people around me. Understanding ADHD and how dopamine works in the body suddenly made my life make so much sense.
I'm unashamedly empathic, and will reach out if I see someone struggling. I won't take offence if you tell me to leave you alone.
