This instance is the first time we've properly set up a home on the fediverse outside of a Mastodon instance, we did dip our toes into pixelfed and peertube years ago I believe but it was not really something we got too into, but we're starting to like Sharkey, the Widgets are cool thing, and the attachment management seems pretty useful, I might actually make this our primary fediverse account and have our one we also joined recent on another mastodon instance be our backup, our primary account was @codeawayhaley since 2017 and I think this might actually be a nice change, some novelty, Mastodon has become too familiar and its fun exploring stuff sharkey has - Nightmare Typhie

For the time being our primary account will be @theweathersystem@tenforward.social this will be the backup for now until we settle down #introduction - Updated: 2025-08-10

We're The Weather System (Athena's Realm System), We're Trans fem, and we're an officially diagnosed autistic, bipolar and dissociative identity disorder system, we a collection of various leftist, and believe strongly in queer, and neurodiversity rights movements, we view plurality in general as neurodivergence

Our pronouns are Su/Sudo/Suselves, however She/Her/Herselves, and They/Them/Theirselves

We are most likely to toot about #Medicine, with focus on #Genetics, #Epigenetics, #Bioinformatics, and #Neuroscience giving our focus back in uni was Genetics of Human Disease, and Neuroscience but we are likely to talk about a whole range of medical topics, besides medicine we are likely to toot about #meteorology and #geology, with specific interests in #SynopticMeteorology #TropicalCyclones / #Hurricanes / #Typhoons / #TropicalStorms, #ExtratropicalCyclones, #SubtropicalCyclones, and #Tornadoes, among other topic, and we may toot about #Geology, #Minerals, and #Vulcanology, and what ever else is on our mind, we collected #MyLittlePony and are a fan of every generation of MLP, also we collect #WildManes, as well as #MonsterHigh and #LittlestPetShop and Radioactive stuff and play #EliteDangerous

edit extra info: [Also to note we're storm chasers, so we may occasionally post photos and media from chases, our focus is usually on Tropical Cyclones within the Australian Region Basin with mainly focus on the Coral Sea, these will usually be marked with the Tropical Cyclone and Hurricane tags]

See attached thread for System Information, System Membership 58+

Our system name is subject to change, it was previously the Athena's Realm System, however only one member, arguably two members made that decision on behalf of the entire system, without consulting us, so we're in the process of trying out system names to see which fits us best, but for the time being we will display both "Athena's Realm" and the current trialing system name so it is less confusing for those who know us by our old system name
