Warm hello from my corner of the internet -- here's my #introduction #introductions stand-up for hear-me.social

I'm in my late 30s, from the Elmhurst-Oak Brook, IL, area, USA, introverted, and I love waffles. I'm a lover of all things good, nourishing, and positive. Anti-Trump (but not socially political, will probably extremely rarely talk about politics here), progressive, and lover of wonder, serenity, sunlight. Hoping to contribute the good, inspiring, and cute here (like cute #cats ) . Maybe even get more serious and post some fiction and poetry as I know AI scraping is blocked on hear-me.

I appreciate the way hear-me.social implements Mastadon and the way hear-me chooses to open and closed- the protection against AI is my biggest fave. It is the only server stating that they do so. Utilization of many technologies to protect users is also another. Implementing the fediverse as the way it should be - federating openly -- while having moderation rules that are safe and pro-human. So thank you to @admin for that

My follow motto: #Nourishing, Cultured, Likes #books (especially #fiction and high #fantasy !) and #poetry, #positive, progressive, pro-science, anti-misinformation, anti-Trump, #LGBTQA +-friendly/allied, #BIPOC friendly/allied, pro-immigrant and allied, not overly-political or confessional.

Can't wait to meet everyone!
