HI FEDIVERSE!!!

i am once again making an intro post to christen a new account, a new username, and the end of an era of my life!! so introduction once again

hi, my name is aen (he/him), i’m british-indian, almost finished with my masters degree in cyber security (specifically i wanna do blue team stuff as a soc analyst / security engineer) and almost out of an internship!! i have adhd so i have my fingers in a lot of hobbies that i can’t balance at all. right now, i’m into:

🎵 music:

i LOVE albums and love reviewing them (although i’m not exactly good at it) and my favourite artist is björk! my favourite album of all time is imaginal disk by magdalena bay though, and generally i just listen to a lot of art pop. i need to expand my horizons!

📖 reading:

i struggle to make time to read because of adhd, but reading is a passion i’ve had for a very long time. right now my favourite book is the spear cuts through water by simon jimenez (literary fantasy) and you can also follow me on librarything if you wanna see the other books ive read - that’s where i track my books and occassionally review them

🎮 games:

i am not a pro gamer. im so bad at games. love them though. my favourite game of all time is one i actually played less than two months ago - disco elysium. still haven’t really finished it, but i love that game so much. took an entire week out of my life but i don’t regret it! other than that, i end up playing a lot of indie games and a lot of roguelikes and roguelites, even if i’m shit at them

🐉 dungeons and dragons:

i say dnd because i haven’t played any other ttrpgs, but man i love dnd so much. i especially love making characters, and in games i usually try to make characters that feel indian. in dnd there are no restrictions and its so freeing and i get to feel seen with every character i make! right now the two characters i’m playing are oasis whisper, a tabaxi fighter who’s an archaeologist on a mission, and jemadar baru, an ex-military minotaur who’s an enforcer for a gang. the best characters i’ve ever created i think.

👾 pixel art:

you may have seen me occassionally post some pixel art on my old account, and i really want to try and learn, but i got into a bit of a rut. couldn’t really commit to drawing anything, it was super frustrating. my sister has convinced me now that i should try relearning the basics of art in general (since i haven’t done that since my gcses) so hopefully you’ll see some more pixel art from me this year!

other than that, you may also see me occasionally talk about dropout (and also smosh since i’ve been getting into them a lot) and hermitcraft, since that’s generally what my watching habits have gravitated towards. so if you’re into any of those, let’s be mutuals!! also heres my letterboxd, i do watch movies sometimes

you wont see me talk about cyber security that often though, im dumb and there are smarter people here

TLDR: im aen, i do cyber security, i have adhd, and i like music and reading and games and dnd and pixel art and dropout and hermitcraft and a lot of other things

anyway heres the wall of tags, im not skimping on them this time

Ancient Roguelike Lore: 50 Ways To Leave Your Game
Boudewijn Wayers was the creator of the very first Nethack Home Page. I have no idea where he is now, but he's listed among the alumni of the Nethack Dev Team.

He wrote a spoiler for Nethack called To Die: 50 Ways to Leave Your Game, which was a cataloging of ways to die in that game.

Hi! Figured I'd redo my #introduction

I'm Théotime, I'm (almost!) a software engineer from France. I'm 20-something, I'm aroace, and I go by any pronouns.

I mainly post in English but I can sometimes post in French. I post random stuff, from ideas/rambling I have, to video game clips where I do something stupid

I'm plural, one of my headmates has her own account (
@shift) but she'd use it for a short while then stop for some time (we're not sure how to manage having both accounts)

Lately I've been playing Rivals of Aether (1 and 2), and I also like roguelikes/roguelites and monster tamers (Cassette Beasts is my favorite game, I have a few OC/fanfiction ideas that I might never write).

I like TTRPG, someday™ I'll probably host a game.

I try to read, I tend to like sci-fi and fantasy, but I'm extremely picky if there's romance. I read a lot of webcomics, feel free to ask or give recommendations

Not a furry™ (or not yet) /hj
