I'm probably gonna be really bad at this. Hi. You can call me Simon. I'm 29, bisexual, a cis man, I'm white, and I am not very tall. I thought I was tall, tallest person in my family in fact! Then I met my wife and she is quite blatantly taller than me and now I'm deciding to accept my fate as a diminutive monarch.
I shall now elaborate on points within the title!
I've grown up disabled and have to use a wheelchair for any real kind of distance of moving or walking. I am ambulatory around the household! Regardless of mobility though, I've dealt with chronic pain my whole dang life. Being disabled is a pretty dang large part of my identity and being proud of it is something I am constantly working on.
I'm married! Been with my partner now for two years, we spent most of our relationship online but at the end of 2021 I made the trek from the UK to the US to be with her permanently. We've since gotten married and I adore her to the moon and back. We date separately, but are very clear and communicative about how our poly works. Neither of us believe in hierarchical dynamics within poly, so you won't find any labels minimizing a relationship here! We also both believe in kitchen table poly, where even if we date separately, we really want everyone to feel welcome and loved and NOT make anyone eat a bucket of fish heads under the table. You get to eat your bucket of fish heads AT the table, booboo.
And then I guess I covered the last little bit of thing from the title in the previous paragraph! I've been here in the US for six months now and honestly, I'm in such dire need of friends and connections and what-have-yous that it is almost not funny anymore. So whether you wanna do the sex with me or not, I'm not gonna smack a friendship horse in the mouth.
To write about the less important things for a sec now, I can say quite honestly and directly, I play video games too dang much. But it's not just the playing of the games, no no no, I play so many fucking games and never finish any of them and it's a real problem. Elden Ring has been my most recent hyperfixation game obsession but I really play just about anything and direly miss having buddies to play games within, whether in co-op or partying up for fucking any other game that isn't co-op I guess. I'm a writer! Been telling myself that for years now but I'm finally making some super big movement on my first real book project that I want to see through. It's vampire smut wedged between a more broad story of murder mystery criminal political intrigue, before you ask. I'm 420 friendly and currently 420'd up, so I apologise if this has been a whole experience to read. I'm very socially and politically aware, lean so far to the left I'm practically laying in bed (on my left side), and I have a great passion for my belief and my desire to be the best ally I can be to any cause I believe in, because I would like to hope for that same passion to come back my way, with allyship for disabled issues. I hope that sentence makes sense. I'm just very much interested in the intersectionality of social justice and the kinship between disadvantaged groups.
I'm sure there's more about meself I can ramble about, but I'm afraid the aforementioned 420'd up state has decided it's time for me to just be in the moment because typing sure is hard.
Love you all. Take care of yourselves.
