Hey all! I like probably most of the people introducing theirselves today am detaching myself from bsky, and I don’t think I ever actually even made an intro post there, (whoops!) so here is one!
I’m an asexual trans woman in my thirties, my hobbies are mostly a rotating hyper fixation wheel of TTRPGs, gunpla, miniature wargaming, 3D modeling, and occasionally a non-tabletop RPG. Also my husband runs a rabbit rescue so I do a lot of stuff with bunnies too! We live on a farm with many animals we rescued from being food and a few more we adopted who were always companions.
Currently I’m trying to do research to write a book about Posadas aliens coming to Earth in the 18th century and bringing mechs because “what if Jane Austen had a Gundam?” is a very fun question to me, (and also I forgot Gundam Wing existed for like two weeks when I first started thinking about it,) but it’s kind of turned into “what if Gundams fought in the Napoleonic wars?” so now I’m also working on a wargame
Ever listen to Fall of Efrafa?
I haven’t, but I’m interested! I looked them up expecting post-hardcore but I guess they’re crust, so like even better
Ooh! Okay, I’d better intro you a bit cause you should listen to them in release order. They’re more from the crust scene but the tragedy style of crust. They formed as a concept band and released the 3 albums they needed to and then broken up. So listening in order is crucial.
Also if crust is even better for you. I am a crust expert. I have been stenchcore scum for a solid 20 years and have toured, booked bands etc. I know a lot of people from the early UK crust/anarcho scene personally or through friends, DIY punk was what I lived and breathed for a long time. I’m becoming less precious about it but just last night I got the bass slot for the new System Shit lineup.(first Canadian crust band, started in 1988). You wanna get more band recommendations than you know what to do with or book a diy punk show pretty much anywhere then gimme a shout. There’s a worldwide network of the 5 punks.that organize in every town and they mountains.
