you can call me Thimble. my pronouns are they/them, but i may sprinkle in others sometimes. i am non-binary, specifically agender. i’ve had a complicated relationship with my gender since childhood, and i may use this space to explore those messy feelings. i am asexual, and i’m probably biromantic. i often refer to myself as just queer—which i understand is a divisive term, but it feels like home to me, and i don’t intend to censor the word.
in the material world, i am 27 years old. i do not feel that age ever, and i am trying to overcome my guilt in not being an ‘adult.’ so much of my adulthood has been a blur to me, and because i isolated myself for over half of the last ten years, i don't have much experience in many facets of life. it feels like everyone i know is getting married or having children--and i would be happy with just another cat or two or four! i am just working on loving and trusting myself, my true self, and growing brave enough to make the art that speaks to me without shame. i want to become more like myself and less like the person everyone thinks i ought to be.
this is a comfort blog for me. i intend for it to be filled with a wide variety of nostalgia, gentle imagery, and possibly some personal journaling. i will only post the things i’ve written when i’m in a positive state of mind; this will not become a vent blog. even if i decide to write about some darker feelings, i want to keep my posts hopeful! i want to be thoughtful and creative here. i am like a little dragon, and i hope to use this space to gather up art and asmr and craft ideas and advice so i can look at my horde when i'm feeling gloomy and feel warm and safe.
