Describe yourself in five sentences or less: I am a small gay who likes cats and musical theatre.

Name: Katie Age: 34 Location: Upstate New York Tumblr/Goodreads/IG/etc: Goodreads
Describe yourself in five sentences or less: I'm an academic librarian from upstate New York. I'm an introvert who finds joy in theatre, reading, travel, national parks, mid-century modern design, craft beer, goats or llamas, crafts (knit/crochet mostly), museums, historic houses, history, Netflix binge watching, hiking, geocaching, food/cooking (I've been on a keto diet trying to lose weight) and penpals/mail/postcards.
Top 5 fandoms: I like things, but the concept of fandom has never really clicked with me. Some things I really like include Lord of the Rings, Hamilton (and maybe that could be expanded out to New York theatre in general), mail (from Postcrossing to stationery or stickers to penpals) and Disney (Disney parks, Disney movies - especially Disney/Pixar) I mostly post about... Whatever's been going on in life. Sometimes it'll be fun travel stuff. Sometimes it'll be librarian-centric stuff. Sometimes it'll be boring, average, every day

The worst part of the over-30 crowd is going to be aging out of the last few "young person" discount theatre ticket programs in a few months at 35. Don't they know I'm still poor?!?!
Name: Behind flock because I'm weird. Age: 31. Location: Maryland. Tumblr/Goodreads/IG/etc: I'm authorbynight on tumblr, but I hardly ever update it. It might have actually been a whole year - at least.
Describe yourself in five sentences or less: I'm the sort of person who dances to the music in stores when no one's watching. However, I stop as soon as I realize someone is, but am trying to care less because I think the world would be a better place if we all danced freely. I'm artsy and quirky and occasionally snarky, and love LJ for allowing me to be those things.
Top 5 fandoms: I guess if I separate Harry Potter from the new Fantastic Beasts movies that's two, Buffyverse, Firefly and Parks and Recreation. I wouldn't say I post about them a lot, though.
I mostly post about... Social commentary, parodies/satire, meta/reviews/reaction posts, I have a blog-within-a-blog entitled "Shit My Browser Says." I post a bit of my everyday life as well, but not excessively.
My last three LJ posts were about... "Frivolous lawsuits" not

Hi, I am interested in social commentary myself regardless of what position on any given issue; that said, I'm a moderate Independent (I even voted for an independent candidate in the recent election.)
Also, I'm a fan of the satire comic strip Rhymes with Orange.
Hi! I've seen your name on mutual friends' posts rather a lot (looks like we have 20 mutual friends, which seems like a lot even for these days of a smaller, tighter-knit LJ).
I'm a fan of Harry Potter (and really enjoyed Fantastic Beasts) and Firfly, too, and am currently (re)watching Buffy with my kids (we're on season 3 right now).

Describe yourself in five sentences or less: Married with two puppies and zero children. Currently trying to figure out how to have a chronic migraine diagnosis and not crawl back into the depths of despair. My degrees are in psychology but I'm not working right now and idk what I wanna do with my life. I have 1400 fandoms and they rotate on obsession levels depending on my needs. Hobbies include sarcasm, capslock, binge watching shows I've already watched, bullet journals, tattoos, coloring and cross stitching.
Top 5 fandoms: Harry Potter (books much more than movies), Parks and Rec, Community, Buffy/Angel, Friends, Sports Night, Agents of SHIELD (I KNOW THAT'S MORE THAN FIVE WHAT) I mostly post about... stuff going on in my life - usually things that I need to sort out or vent or rant for no good reason My last three LJ posts were about... my dogs, my migraines, a movie

Name: Don't really use it online Age: 32 Location: WI Tumblr/Goodreads/IG/etc: shared with friends
Describe yourself in five sentences or less: I'm a full time academic who works most of the time and spends the rest of the time daydreaming about still being cool even though I never get out much anymore. I love my cat and my husband and most things mid-century. I'm introverted, private, and snarky but I've gradually been learning to chill out thanks to meditation and jogging. I'm passionate about my taste in music and lately it's been a lot of John K. Samson, Wovenhand, and Belle and Sebastian.
Top 5 fandoms: Harry Potter, Star Trek (TNG and DS9), Buffy, Discworld, and reading people's perzines. I mostly post about... Whatever is going on in my life at the moment. My last three LJ posts were about... 2016 year in review and two post about electrical stuff in my house How often do you post? How about commenting? I post at least once a week. I try to comment if people have interesting things to share about their lives.
