Describe yourself in five sentences or less:
I was born and raised in New York City to Filipino parents, went to central Florida for college, bounced between the two for a while, and now am pretty determined to make life in New York work for me even if the rent is too damn high. My days are spent making healthcare-related spreadsheets function; I was a mathematician. The rest of the time can contain anything from the ridiculous food culture of New York to incredibly long walks to video games to Gunpla building to various queer/poly things.

Top 5 Fandoms:
I don't do fandom nearly as much as I used to, but I will talk your head off about any of the following:
* roguelikes
* Gundam, mostly Universal Century, Build Fighters, and Post Disaster/IBO
* FC Bayern, my dear soccer love

I'm also a pretty regular Yuletide participant.

I mostly post about:
General life updates, bisexuality/polyamory thoughts, the occasional fandom thing.

I rarely post about:
Politics, deep details about my day job. You also won't see much fiction/creative writing.

My last three posts were about:
Various details on the things I did that month and what I'm hoping to do the next month.

How often do you post?
I'm aiming for once a month, but maybe it'll be more.

How about commenting?
I do read everything pretty religiously, though I comment less frequently.

You seem interesting in many ways that I won't bother to list, and you had me at roguelikes! What is your favorite roguelike?? I'm not a connoisseur or anything, just curious. It would be hard for me to pick a favorite, though I played the hell out of FTL when it wasn't making me really angry (if that can even be considered a true roguelike).

Anyway, no pressure, but feel free to add me if you like! If you only post once per month, I should be able to keep up! :P I go in spurts and sometimes post quite a lot, but no pressure to read them either.

Big nerd for Dungeon Crawl Stone Soup and Shattered Pixel Dungeon. Loved FTL too, probably the most accessible for me of the "roguelite-y things".

There are so many permutations! The first one I ever played was NetHack, which came on a floppy disk as shareware. The first one I ever fell in love with (unless I'm forgetting some) was the Dragon Warrior mysterious dungeon game starring Taloon from Dragon Warrior IV that came out on the PSOne. I can't remember the American title. Or the Japanese title. Actually I think the Japanese title was Torneko Mysterious Dungeon or something.
