#introductions

Hey there! I'm Somnius, a white tiger living in SF. I code websites, play indie & rhythm games, love all kinds of music, and turned vegan in the middle of this year.

Things I advocate for: furries, non-monogamy, sex positivity, gender identity, LGBT+ rights, democratic socialism.

All of you here inspire me so much with the amazing things you create. I have so much to learn!

Hey folks! From now on, I'll be posting the Merveilles expense reports and server updates via @maru instead of through me. That way, there's a more clear split between my personal posts and posts specifically about the instance. Please follow that account if you'd like to see further updates! 🖤

It's the end of the summer, and days are starting to get cooler. I'm settled into my house, and I can finally get started on our Hometown migration! Check out the Trello for more info, and I'll keep you updated on when that will happen. Cheers, all <3

The desk setup in my house is all coming together now!

A few weeks ago I built a pretty nuts computer for games, that's on the left. On the right is my setup for work. It's been real nice having those separate spaces!

Also: zoom in on the bottom of the window for a surprise :3c

Oh and here's the changelog: https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/releases/tag/v3.4.1

Awright, welcome to 3.4.1 everyone! ✨

Hey folks! Going to be updating from Mastodon 3.4.0 to 3.4.1 rq, should be no downtime. I'll let you know when we're all good!

Updated my profile pic & background to use the Jonathan Vair Duncan image I commissioned!

It's the same tiger here, though. Just a new "face". :3

Had a nice relaxing vacation but work and house stuff has me a bit bogged down, appreciate all your patience on incoming potential updates 🖤

I wish all of you well!

Amazed at how well this commission turned out! This is art of my tiger by Jonathan Vair Duncan (https://www.jonathanvair.com/).

It means a lot to have a commission done by them, since they put a lot of effort into "why" they do art as well as "how". They also helped my fiancée feel super welcome at the first furry convention she ever went to.

The way I see it, this is an image of me building my way to a better future for myself. #theObservatory

Ingredients:

Mixed greens, salt & pepper, fried tofu (extra firm), pan-fried vegan sausages, dried cranberries, apple chunks, pita chips, a dash of lemon & lime juice, and some vegan ranch dressing.

Made some salad! Salads are so simple but they taste real nice when put together. #theGalley

Wow I can jam to this for years!! https://cametek.bandcamp.com/track/circles-of-death #theStudio

Of course, please send feedback and questions about that my way, I"m very open to hearing what you all think!
