Just a bunch of girly bytes exploring a new world in Second Life who also happens to have a fediverse account.
Pronouns: she/her, \(\sqrt{-1}\) / \(\sqrt{-1}\)er.
Catgirl, Kuwuntu user and webkitten. In my late 40s. Virtually a girl (and illegally lesbian) since 19/01/2007, but carrying the sin of being closeted forever. Professional daydreamer. I enjoy any interesting conversation about diversity, cats, windsurfing, boat sailing, big extensions of water, sunsets, caves and underground places, Open Source, Linux, C/C++ development/debugging/footgunning, casual game development, 8 bit retrocomputing, RC models, and (trying to) build my own stuff. Software development kink, dom, won't have mercy of the compiler or of software patterns to get what I want, and to get it now. If you're a software engineer, I can make you cry. Chaotic good with exceptions. Might have C++PTSD.
I can provide emotional support texels and virtual hugs, or even hand out a spoon if you've ran out of them. Please treat me kindly, because even if only virtual, I also have a heart 💜.
No questions about First Life. What happens in Second Life stays there. #nobridge #nobot. Follow requests not passing the vibe check will get a *Connection reset by queer* error. Minors don't interact with CW'd lewd posts, please.
