What a crazy world. It's pretty awful right now. Let's be there for each other.

A little about me:

• I have a "good job" designing software for a giant, evil health insurance company. I work from home in Center City, Philly.
• I’m an indie rocker and generally creative. I write songs and letters that don’t suck. Slowly working on an album. When we match up, I’ll send links to my music if you’re interested. I like hanging out with other creative types.
• I love the water. I try to get to into the rec center pool every day. It's so good for the soul to be in the water, under the sky. I haven't been to the beach in far too long. Let's go!
• I am very nurturing and affectionate.
• Philly is my default city. Over the past 20 years, I’ve lived in Philly, NYC, Upstate NY, DC, Czech Republic, Israel, Houston… I was a consultant, so I moved around a lot. That said, part of me dreams of escaping the city to someplace with water, trees, and parking. Let’s fantasize about our dream house. That’s always fun…
• Attraction is important. I'm reasonably fit and I'm told I have a good face. You can decide for yourself. I’ll send pics once you reach out. I’ll expect the same.
• Vaxed, boosted, and regularly STI tested.
• Check my other posts to see the things that I probably can't mention on this sub.

About you:

• You are sexy but not trashy. Comfy clothes are way sexier than a teddy. You are feminine but not high-maintenance girly.

• You are empathetic and emotionally intelligent. You are kind and a giver. You love to please.

• Smart is sexy. Clever is irresistible. I often want to say that I’m clever but then I’m reminded of the following quote:

“Years ago, in my earliest and pastiest days as a would-be writer, I once read a new story aloud to S. and Boo Boo. When I was finished, Boo Boo said flatly (but looking over at Seymour) that the story was “too clever.” S. shook his head, beaming away at me, and said cleverness was my permanent affliction, my wooden leg, and that it was in the worst possible taste to draw the group’s attention to it. As one limping man to another, old Zooey, let’s be courteous and kind to each other.”

Here are some things I like:

• Movies: Wings of Desire, The Jerk, Secretary, Reuben & Ed, Sid & Nancy, Bill & Ted, Harold & Maude, Blade Runner, Annie Hall, Rear Window, Zombieland, Better Off Dead, Scott Pilgrim, Shaun of the Dead, Spinal Tap!, Pootie Tang, Can’t Hardly Wait, Cabin in the Woods.
• TV: Bob’s Burgers, Always Sunny, Game of Thrones, Dexter, Community, Troy and Abed in the Morning, Battlestar Galactica, Firefly (pretty much anything sci-fi), Sherlock, MST3k, I Think You Should Leave, Fleabag, Broad City, Baby Billy’s Bible Bonkers, What We Do In The Shadows.
• Books: (Lots of the classics) Salinger, Kundera, Confederacy of Dunces, To Kill a Mockingbird (Fun fact: this was written by Bruce Lee’s sister, Harper.), Day by Day Armageddon.
• Music:
  • I made a Spotify playlist of random songs I like.
  • I need a date for Black Francis' Wedding.
  • He's going to introduce me to Cat Power!
  • Ask me why I feel bad about Elliot Smith. (This story is probably more than I want to type into my phone so I'll tell you when we move to a better chat than Reddit.)

Looking forward to hearing from you…
