Hi all! I've just been lurking in the background here for ages because I'm SECRETLY VERY INSECURE. Well, that's not a secret. Now you all know it. Slowly eliminating shame by admitting the thing, yay!
ANYWAY! I'm Tem (or Hammerhand, or Molly, if you prefer); fae/faer or they/them pronouns. Just turned 36, so by "internet standards" I'm quite old. However, I'm glad to be squarely in the middle of this group.
My work is over here on Tumblr, and sometimes on Instagram, but you'll note there's a long stretch of time where I just... haven't... posted... anything. I've been arting since forever ago and I've known Ray (and Apis, Amy, Liz, Sarah, and apologies if I'm missing anyone I've known before) since we were part of a shared art trade group SO many years ago, and lately I've really been feeling deep nostalgia for art trades and geeking out on each others' OCs and just... having art friends. Art is one of the things I do as a spiritual practice and hobby now, although it was my first Career Goal which didn't end up working out. Turns out I'm a lot happier just doing it for myself and not for capitalism! I especially love working with markers- they're by far my favorite medium.
I'm fat, autistic, nonbinary/genderqueer, and I live with my spouse and a bunch of cats. We're preparing to move from our current home in rural NH (where I'm languishing) to Syracuse, NY (where I anticipate being much happier) for work. My interests include religion (my "real life" job is as a Unitarian Universalist minister and my personal practice is Pagan), mythology, historical clothing (designing it, not making it), social justice (specific foci on size, gender and queerness, neurodivergence, and disability), tabletop RPGs, tarot, horror and the supernatural, and shipwrecking unsuspecting humans and dragging them to the bottom of the ocean.
