Well, since I accidentally nuked all of my old images, I guess this is a good time to make a new #introduction post!
I'm a middle-aged nerd who is running my own #sharkey instance. I make robots for a living, but I also take care of a bunch of cats and am learning how to draw. I mostly draw my own OC, Yomiko, but sometimes you'll see me drawing other things with furry ears and tails.
上手じゃないけどちょっと日本語わかります。
I'm a superfan of #Utawarerumono, but I'm also a fan of retro/quirky/niche JRPGs in general (like #TalesOf, #Ys, and #BreathOfFire), anything that has #kemonomimi in it, #furry media in general, and stories that make me feel things. I've also been playing in and GMing #TableTopRPGs for decades.
Things you'll see me do here:
- Boost art that I like (sometimes spicy but not 18+)
- Post pictures of my #cats
- Post my own #art
- Talk about #VideoGames or #anime
- Somewhat less often, talk about #ttrpgs, #Linux, #programming, or #robots
videogames
The Saudis are buying Electronic Arts in a massive $55 billion deal — but why would they want a games publisher?
On #TechWontSaveUs, I spoke with @nathangrayson to discuss how Saudi Arabia uses games to try to improve its image.

The Dream Address is DA-0198-8300-5283.

New #introduction I guess. Hey I’m Rob a big software nerd that likes making and using websites and apps. By day I’m a Software Engineer for a HCI research group in Newcastle (UK) and I freelance a bit too, if you’ve used the MozFest schedule I made that! I also quite like #photography and #hiking and enjoy playing the #piano to relax plus #films, #lego and #videogames.
Since I am done decorating for the holidays on my island, I decided to update my Dream Island for the first time in over a year.
It's all set up for Christmas with decorations all over the island!
Dream Address is DA-0198-8300-5283.
Enjoy!
It will all be cleaned up after the holidays

The weekend is here! What are your plans?
Our livestream break continues.
Offline we're playing Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance, Hades II, and Raidou Remastered. One of us is clean their house and restocking food after a long trip.
I've played so many games that in case i'd see a human corpse in real life, my natural instinct would be to loot it.
Calling all Fedivere Animal Crossing fans!
I want to see all of us connect more.
So, I am planning to keep boosting pics with Alt-Text with the Animal Crossing or ACNH hashtags.
I am also adding in the hashtag #FediCrossing to my future posts.
I hope folks do too so all us Animal Crossing fans hyped for the 3.0 update can find each other!
Reject grind culture and embrace whatever this is...

#introduction update for my second Mastodon anniversary!
I'm a #nonbinary #transmasc #lgbtqia person in my late 30s, I live in #Finland and pretty much toot in English.
I've been with my partner for over 16 years, we run a #pinball arcade together as a hobby. We have two elderly #cats who also get shared on here on the occasion.
I play a lot of #VideoGames, especially #RPGs and post about my progress, usually with pictures or videos.
I enjoy #travel, I've been to 13 different countries so far. I also enjoy meeting people from all around the world.
I do a lot of #crafts especially when the weather is bad. I #knit, #crochet and #CrossStitch
I'm a #chef by profession, I love good #food and great #coffee. I've been working at a student cafe on a uni campus for almost 7 years.
I like #cycling and try to keep some sort of decent condition with it. We have pretty good cycling routes in my home town. Photo evidence is shared on the occasion.
If you read this far, and share interests, give me a follow 😁

Holiii comparto acá un video acelerado del proceso de diseño de LA LLEGADA DE FIRMINA, un #videojuego que hice para debatir las narrativas tecnooptimistas y extractivas detrás de la construcción del cable submarino que conecta directamente al Norte con Uruguay por primera vez, y que desembarcó en la playa de los veranos de mi infancia 🐠🐚🔌🌀🐋🌊📱🏖️
