I've missed reading over the years, and social media filled the gap, so started 2025 , to get back to it, something about reading that exercises the mind, on my 3rd book this year, feeling my mind is having great mental work out, after all the years of effortlessly scrolling, years back would have been more fiction reader, recently autobiographical and psychology, books, but welling to expand my knowledge.

I've always wanted to play with a DnD group, I have some experience playing a homebrew version online. Other than that I'm your typical nerd, into comics, gaming and metal.
