27M, detrans hikkineet in Southern Illinois (close-ish to St Louis). last year i had a drive for creative endeavors, but i've since sunken into my usual "do nothing" pit for basically all of 2025. lately i've been struggling to remember why things were important to me in the first place... i think being in the presence of others would help. i've never really had friends in a traditional sense, and i often flip-flop around it, but my desire is strong at the moment. im not necessarily shy, but years of isolation have definitely done a number on me. lengthy chats with others draw out most of my attention and can exhaust me for the remainder of the day, which is unfortunate as i can be quite the yapper... i think acquainting myself with people who live nearby is something i've needed for a very long time. this includes neighboring states!

as for hobbies and interests, i love exploring and taking photos! i like writing, despite working at a snail's pace. i've also found i have a knack for making amvs. i want to watch more movies, but im always too tired when the evening comes... i'm also really bad when it comes to listening music... i'm sorry i'm so spacey... my favorite anime include hidamari sketch, princess jellyfish, space dandy, and eizouken, as well as a lot of iyashikei and gainax stuff. some of my favorite video games are katamari damacy, warioware twisted, duke nukem 3d, the first super mario bros, and ff8!

my discord is 'dkoldies'. i feel a bit self-conscious about being mistaken for a nintentoddler... or just undesirable in general? idk. everyone has their hangups, myself included. regardless, lets all try to be kind without feeling the need to accommodate for each other. if you send a request, a bit of time might pass before i get back to you, so please be patient!
