.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~. Howdy, everyone. I'm not actually new to the gophersphere, but after having to cancel my hosting, and being unable to have my RPi0W to host my phlog, I decided it was time to join SDF's servers to fix the lack of gopherspace for myself. Some might remember me under a different name: TeraDyne. tomasino[1] might remember that name in particular from earlier in the year, before I left Mastodon in a bit of an anxiety-fueled ragequit mess. That wasn't fun. These days, I mostly go by Gallows, due to a character/sona of mine. Phoenix/lion gryphon. Thus the morbid pun of being the "Swingin' Gryph". I'm an older Linux user, though these days, I stick to MacOS (especially 10.6.8) for my main work system. I'm fairly comfortable with full command line (I grew up on MSDOS, and spent 13 years with Linux as my daily driver OS), but I do appreciate the ease-of-use of a Mac. You just won't find me buying any new hardware from Apple. I'm mostly a writer, trying to work on fantasy and sci-fantasy works when I can. Between dealing with household things, at any rate. I'm also a fan of Kamen Rider and Super Sentai, among many tokusastu series, as well as Pokémon,Digimon, and many other monster-oriented anime. So yeah... That's most of what I am: "Writer, occasional artist, occasional programmer, otherkin, trans, anime fan, weird." [1]: gopher://gopher.club/1/users/tomasino/
