Hi, I'm Lapis! I'm a nevrean. (I'll make a separate #fursona post, if you don't know what that is then don't even worry about it for now)

It's time for the...

Obligatory intro post

I knew about Cohost a few weeks ago but hesitated to join until after people from a certain other website came en masse and I got stuck at the end of the waiting list. All my friends have been chosting for ages. :P

But never mind that, HI I'M DAISY (that's a Mario meme please don't actually call me Daisy)

Things you may wish to know about me

• I play rhythm games! I play DDR and the limits of my current skills are about a 10 on the new scale, but I mainly play the older games. 4th Mix is my favorite but MAX 1 and 2 US are the song of my people (aka: music from my childhood) I've also been learning Beatmania (5-key), but it's a MUCH harder game so I'm not actually any good at it yet and can't sight-read a new song, I just learned Salamander Beat Crush in practice mode so I look like I know what I'm doing.
• I'm into retro tech! I have a collection of older computers (but unfortunately most of it is at my parents' house so I haven't played with them in some time) and I like retro gaming. I started going off about them in this post but decided it would be better to make a separate one to talk about my computers because it was rapidly getting out of hand XD I'm also into modern tech but that's not as interesting. I use Linux. I built Linux From Scratch once!
• I'm an artist! I use GIMP and Inkscape. Unfortunately I haven't made any art in a long time (see next section) but I'm hoping to change that. I was actually pretty good, and vector graphics artists aren't super popular in the furry fandom and I want to change that because it's an amazing skill and tons of fun. I made my own Telegram sticker pack.

Things you will wish you hadn't known

• I'm a recovering... mental health disaster, I guess. I definitely have depression and anxiety, and I'm not officially diagnosed but probably have CPTSD. (Don't do retail, kids.) Every time I open my mouth to speak people adore me, but I have trouble feeling the same way about myself sometimes. I keep getting sucked into instant gratification loops but I'm actually genuinely for real this time trying to fix it so I can stop spending the whole day on Telegram and, you know, do literally anything else.
• I'm probably plural??? But my system seems to have calmed down and gone dormant as soon as I discovered it so that's gonna need more self-exploration... The only reason I don't think I imagined it is because 1) three of us have names and 2) every system I've talked to says my life experiences sound very HMMMMM
• I like farting. But not directly..? I like the idea of people being comfortable with their own bodies and having no shame. (It started as a joke and got out of hand.)
