Please use he/him pronouns for me.
I've been blogging a long time. I started a LiveJournal in 2002 and moved it over here about ten years ago or something. Mostly I write about my life. I'm bisexual, I'm a trans man, I'm partially sighted, I'm an immigrant from the U.S. to the UK; these are all things I write about, but for the past few years I've been trying to blog every day so often I'm just writing about little things that happened in my day.
People in this journal
I live with my boyfriend
diffrentcolours (D) and his other partner/my close friend
mother_bones (V).
What I do
Soon after the pandemic started, I got my bachelor's degree in linguistics (I'm particularly interested in linguistic discrimination). My job deals with making streets and transport more accessible.
Subscriptions, access and commenting
I always welcome new people. One of my favorite things about the heyday of LJ was randomly friending strangers so I'm sorry if I've done that and you don't like it. No hard feelings if you unsubscribe/revoke access, and none intended if I do the same to you.
Almost all of my entries are public so I grant access pretty readily; I understand if it's a bigger deal for you.
I read almost everything and leave more comments than I receive, but I don't mind if other people don't do those things.
Anonymous comments are allowed here; I'm lucky enough not to have had too bad an experience with them. But do try to ensure your comment is at least two of the following: kind, interesting, helpful or useful.
your livejournal reminds me of the "temperance" card in the Rider-Waite tarot deck. i'm thinking the one foot in the water, one out / and the cups (one the Past, one the Future, with a bidirectional stream between...) suggest your ability t'be precisely and entirely in Northern England (with all the fascinating negotiations required of a non.native), yet capable of presenting an uncompromised evocation of a fully realised and engaging Minnesota, by sun or by lamplight. a triumph of MEMORY and ... environmental engagement.

I may not have gone where I intended to go, but I think I have ended up where I needed to be.
