New account, new #introduction:
I'm Elizabeth (she/her), a xennial cat mom, who joined Fedi during the Great Birdsite Migration™ of Nov. '22.
I support LGBTQ+ rights, am anti-racist, live in the central US & would hypothetically like to 🚀 the current president into the sun.
Interests include: cats, #horses, birds, all things #horror, #Taskmaster & #Qi, genre books, alt & goth #metal, #android modding, cognitive psych, #zoology & learning obscure info.
Awkward AF but trying to be kinder.
