and now the impossible task of k.i.s.s.:

i've got my ducks in a row and i'm looking for a person or people to "go big" with.

i live in central texas. i have a car, a house and a good remote job and more than i like frankly. i might retire in a few years, but it’s a "when i feel like it" sort of thing. i'll likely be outta here, but to where? i do not want kids. i want to travel more than i do, and i have less mental energy than i’d like. i’m not excusing it, but don’t many of us? i’m 6'1" and so-so fit. my fitness things are lifting and running 5k at least a few times a week (i just set a new p.b. which is weird because i’m getting fucking old.) i did almost die a couple years ago and now have a metal plate in my head, which is a story for another time.

i like so many things that mentioning something here feels like pigeonholing myself. good movies, bad movies good bad movies, the surreal, the psychedelic, the absurd, the dark. alt rock stuff, catchy electronic stuff. folk rock stuff. the road trip playlist is not not important. books are good. good sci-fi and fantasy is good. science and technology and space and physics are good. whatever it is, i might be conversant or at least interested.

and dreams, too. daydreams? probably. building a house from scratch would be cool. living in a tiny house or similar would be cool. being better at skiing than i am would be cool. storm chasing would be cool. learning to scuba dive would be cool. learning how to sail would be cool. learning how to fly or glide would be cool. being a citizen scientist would be cool. creating something that lasts would be cool.

i'm an introvert and find it a bit alien that people seek out certain situations, but often a middle ground and understanding can be found. being chill is my coping mechnism and my anti cheat code is normie stuff accepted and absorbed because it's there. lots of (social) media, etc, down to societal expectations. i like good eccentric, good choosy, curious, and opinionated. i'm not a city person (in the burbs now) and could go further out even.

i'm vanilla and demisexual so if you've got some essential kinky stuff goin' you can bring it up so we don't waste our time.

i'm open to people from anywhere, though i know i'm idiosyncratic as hell and medium ugly, so if you're not down or there's some other obstacle, let's try to be frank both ways. all i ask for is effort and for you to come correct.

i'd appreciate a pic if you say hi but i'm defo not your dad.

if this post is up it's still relevant. please be patient for responses, i get busy and won't overextend. reddit chat isn't good but it's a starting point. be warned, i may want to use another medium sooner than later if things get wordy. also voice notes for vibes could be cool. looking forward to hearing from ya.
