I'm on a new instance so it probably makes sense to do a new #introduction

Hello! I'm Chris. I live in rural Michigan on stolen Peoria and Odawa land. Something like "radical leftist #antifacist #socialist #atheist #progressive who supports defunding the police, redistribution of wealth, and destroying the patriarchy" would be a pretty accurate way to describe myself. I'm also a dad to a young daughter and three #tortoiseshell cats, and husband to a lovely incredibly smart lady engineer.

I'm #actuallyautistic, #bipolar, and an #adhder. I also have #synesthesia and #dyscalculia.

I'm a #musician who primarily makes weird and fun #electronicmusic, and I also play #woodwinds, keyboards, bass, drums, and accordion. I share my music at https://chrisbeckstrom.bandcamp.com. I taught myself #linux and now work as a #sysadmin for a #webhosting company. I also build analog modular #synthesizers and love synths in general. Some of my favorite subjects are #music, #coding, #foraging, #selfhosting, #scifi, #nonfiction, #emacs, and organizing my personal #wiki that has 6,970+ entries. I have an extremely weird website at https://bkstrm.net.

Also: #blacklivesmatter, #translivesmatter, trans women are women, #fuckICE. I think by now you probably get the gist of who I am.

Let's be friends!
