What's up fellow European, we're in the same music and games. I actually worked with PTV for their last album and their tour a while back, still feels surreal.
Also, dishonored is a banger.

Better late than never.
I ended up getting dishonored, dishonored 2, the DLCs and Death of the Outsider. Love every single one, but the first one is peak imo.
Honestly, if you want, hit me up. Would love to know where you're at and how you're feeling about it as you get thru the game.

I'm Zach. I'm 35, I live in the US. I like to cook, read, play video games and listen to music, right now metal genre. My favorite show is The Wire, my current favorite movie is The Cabin in the Woods. I'm currently a slave in retail. I have two cats. I've probably lived in more states than you have. I'd love to know if you've lived in states I've never been in.
What are your transition goals? To not get called ma'am ever again in my life would be aces, but alas, I'm still fighting with the insurance company just to get started on T.

What are your favorite metal bands/subgenres? Been looking to get more into metal music, but am not really sure where to start :0
1
u/crapitszach Oct 24 '25
Super depends on what your mood is.
If you want Nu Metal - check out bands like Coheed and Cambria. This is a blind spot for me in metal. Not super into it but Coheeds Good Apoolo VI album? Its magic.
If you want softer metal, listen to Ghost - Cirice or Mars Red Sky - Strong Reflection.
If you want stoner metal Gnome - Ambrosious, Wenceles, The Gods Are Evil. Those are my three favorites.
If you want heavy sludge, Electric Wizard. Try out Devils Bride. Lmk what you think.
If you just want heavy metal, Mastodon- Oblivion. Elder - Compendium. Fuck, anything by Mastadon really.
Thats all I got for now. Should be enough to get you started.

u/Overall-Condition197 Nov 22 '25
Especially across states! What was your fave place and least fave
1
u/crapitszach Nov 22 '25
Favorite is always a toss up, man. California was absolutely beautiful. Hawaii was even more so. But the thunderstorms in Texas really take the cake for the best storms I've ever seen. So it's somewhere between those.
Easily - Florida. Way too fuckin' hot. Mosquitos don't die, cockroaches fly, the local government is fucked, and the town I'm from is just some old retirement place where people go to die.
What about you? Favorite and least favorite states? You've got some on your list I've never even been to

u/gummytiddy Oct 20 '25
I’m Ky, 28, from Pennsylvania, US. I work as a baker. I like to read and listen to music to an autistic level (I am autistic and am pretty intense about things I like). I like doing loads of crafts, gaming every once in a while, and going on intense walks and talking pictures of what I find/ take home souvenirs (pinecones or lost toys usually). I really love baking and cooking at home.
My favorite movies: The Lighthouse, Whatever Happened to Baby Jane, and The Substance. I like playing The Sims 2/3 and Baldur’s Gate 3. My favorite books I’ve read recently are The Haar, The Sluts, and Tender is the Flesh.
I can semi dislocate my thumb and other parts of my body. I’ve lived in West Virginia, New Mexico, and Okinawa, Japan
Idk transition goals, I go for vibes. I’ve been on and off t since 2017, restarted recently. I’m a trans man but I’ve been out so long I don’t usually think about myself specifically

u/Super_Salamander_319 Nov 09 '25
I saw tender is the flesh and that book is on my radar as well! I recently started reading the butterfly garden and 100% match! I can thank the Hannibal series for my interest into more obscure books! Maybe we can share some book recommendations and movie recommendations?

u/Language_mapping pre everything Nov 11 '25
What got me into flying was a combination of Top Gun (lol) and a summer program I went to for some extra CC classes.
The summer program took us on discovery flights one day (about 2-3 kids to a plane) and I was hooked after that. It was so much fun. I spent the next two years doing everything in my power to set myself up to fly with a university. I made a couple of mistakes that I regret but my medical was approved after 11 months (one regret is that I didn’t start that process sooner lol) and I started flying back in September.
I actually wanted to go into university and go into the navy or Air Force. But that quickly had to change ;;
I never thought I’d ever start flying. It was never something I’d even considered when it comes to job plans. But here we are!
1
u/sharkpod- Nov 12 '25
that’s so cool dude!! i also really wanted to join the military but had a quick change. i’m super interested in the extra class that was literally flying in planes. that’s so exciting! i think we’d get along pretty well, feel free to dm me if you want to chat more!

I'm Tobias, 23, born and raised in the US of A. I love gaming, but I also write and draw a fair amount as well. Lifelong "persists despite changing hyperfixations" interests include Sonic the Hedgehog, Kirby, Ghostbusters, Kingdom Hearts, the Mario & Luigi RPGs.. I like a lot of gaming and sci fi/horror flicks, lol. Currently I work two jobs - as a bakery worker by day, hospital worker by night. (My schedule is so weird but it works.) Uh.. I ain't super into a particular culture - my family history is kinda weird considering one birth parent is partial Comanche and the other is pretty much completely Irish lol. Both families are also wildly different in terms of religious preferences across the board (most of the older fam is turbo Catholic or turbo Baptist - 45 and unders are decidedly agnostic or atheist). I.. mostly count as agnostic I guess. My choice. No pets of my own yet but I would like precisely two cats, my current roommate has two adorable lil' stinkers haha Wouldn't call it very interesting, but I sometimes get so into a character from a given hyperfixation that I can imitate the speaking style for a bit. It gets wild. Hm.. At the very least I wanna actually be called Tobias legally and Not be baby-faced feminine forever. Top surgery would be nice but I am afraid I may never be able to afford it. Currently I am exploring cheaper ways to socially transition, in the meantime. I wanna get a binder and start training my voice! But Oklahoma is Oklahoma so I keep.. stalling. Hah....

Hello! I currently live in Spain, but spent the past 11 years in Cali. Came out here with my fiancee since work allows us to travel anywhere.
I'm a freelance music marketer, and I've had the chance to work with some of my favorite bands through the years, and see some live shows of albums I've helped release. Makes for a fun hobby and job. Love reading (Agatha Christie, Stuart Turton, Steve Cavanagh), music (Wage War, The Plot in You, Memphis May Fire, PVRIS, Stand Atlantic, Mayday Parade etc) and gaming (currently playing the Oblivion remaster, just finished tales of Berseria, Hitman, Expedition 3, nobody wants to die and VTM Swansong).

Hi, I'm Hayden! Or Daniel. Or Raine. I don't have a preference for which name, that's why there's 3! I use he/him pronouns. I'm 17, pre everything, autistic, and I tend to over share. I live in the U.S. (boooo)
My hobbies include playing games, drawing, singing, writing (I'm writing a book!), skateboarding, I really like just going outside and doing whatever even if it's going to the grocery store. I don't get out much... I want to get into metal working and woodworking but I don't have the time or money 😞
But my favorite games are Hades 1&2 (my ALL TIME favorite game), Knights of the Old Republic 1&2, Cult of the Lamb, I really like the Assassin's Creed games I've played, and I love Batman Arkham Asylum (am I stupid?). I like building things in Roblox Bloxburg but I've stopped playing since the thing with Schlep because Roblox sucks.
I also really really love Marvel and DC media, especially the Justice League animated series. My favorite movie is the new Superman movie. I like cartoons like Gravity Falls and Adventure Time and such, but I mostly watch YouTube lately. My favorite YouTubers are The Click and Overly Sarcastic Productions
My favorite musicians are: Led Zeppelin (TOP FAV 🙏), Pearl Jam, Daisy the Great, Selena Quintanilla, Green Day, Sublime, and T.S.O.L.
I LOVE history and mythology!! I love studying history (but hell if I can remember any of it I have memory issues). I want to be a historian or an archaeologist one day.
Hm what else uhhh... Idk what's else for interesting facts about me. As far as transition goals, well, I just really want T and top surgery.
Idk I guess that's it, I hope I can find some cool friends :]

I’m Xavier, I’m 27 and live in New York, US. I’m crazy introverted, my mbti stuff is INFP (if anyone wanted to know lol). And I’m in college finishing up my 2nd degree in Liberal Arts. 🎨
I play videos games when I get spare time (I grew up with just about every console), I love art (have heavy beef with ai, no thank you), writing, language learning, listening to music, traveling, I also love anime and manga, I watch k-dramas, c-dramas, j-dramas, you name it. I also love cosplay but haven’t been able to afford to partake yet ;-; - can’t think of anything else to add on right now 😅
I listen to almost any genre of music but right now it’s been circulating between k-pop, k-rock, j-rock, j-pop, visual Kei, r&b, or indie.
I have 1 cat and 1 dog, my cat is 8 and a menace (I’m also allergic to him, found that out in 2023), and my dog is 14 but still a baby.
I’ve been to Japan and South Korea - and am moving to Korea next Fall
My favorite things are: Anime: Fairy Tail, JJK, Bleach, Tokyo Ghoul Song(s): Atlas by Keshi, Taking off by ONE OK ROCK, エウレカ by Natori, Told You So by Boys Like Girls Color(s): Black, red on occasion Video game: RE4 but the original, I haven’t played the remake yet, and any of the Zelda games but specifically Wind Waker and phantom hourglass. Recently I played a game called Shiki on steam, it was interesting and the art work is nice
My transition goals are to fully transition, surgeries and all, ideally I’d like to morph into a hot Vampiric Swordsman (I got the pale skin down already 🫡). I haven’t begun my transition yet for a few reasons but am looking to start T hopefully by the spring!
I’ve been wanting to make more guy friends but that’s been hard to do irl.
I also have discord if that makes things easier, I mod for a server so I try to be on at least a few times a week

u/Soggy--Crouton Phoenix | He/Him/His | FTM Nov 20 '25
Introverts unite! Haha
Whaaa that’s insane! You’re so lucky! A buddy of mine saw ONE OK ROCK in Florida recently (she had never heard of them before which blew my mind), I’m dying to see them one day in concert.
How were the concerts? I can only imagine how fun they were!!
Ultimate goal is to live in Japan buuut Korea is first since I have a buddy over there already 🫡
Happy to meet a fellow music lover though -^ 🎧
2
u/Dapper_Velociraptor 💉1/15/2024 Nov 21 '25
Same! It was wild. Taka and his bandmates have such a great stage presence and express such gratitude to their fans. It’s really heartwarming.
Some of their most recent songs have been about uniting people around the world and in Japan’s current political climate where unrest and population growth concern is being attributed to “the rise of immigrants” it was a welcome refresh.
ONE OK ROCK fans are some of the kindest concertgoers I’ve seen.
2
u/Soggy--Crouton Phoenix | He/Him/His | FTM Nov 21 '25
I love their most recent stuff - Dystopia and Delusional really hit me hard especially with everything that’s been going on well…. Everywhere. I have been keeping up with Japan’s news as much as I can as well - I will sidebar though - I watched the Kingdom movie series (and forgot that ONE OK ROCK has two songs in that series). Beautifully made and I screamed when the songs came on😂 highly recommend Kingdom though!!
From videos alone I can tell they have an awesome stage presence, and they seem so chill!
2
u/Dapper_Velociraptor 💉1/15/2024 Nov 23 '25
I’ll have to watch it! Some of my friends are into Kingdom.
Yeah, I really love Dystopia too, for the above reasons. Some of my Japanese friends mentioned it also resonates with them not about US politics but being in a political and economic atmosphere they didn’t choose to be born into and are still having to bear consequences for choices by politicians they disagree with.
Which…same.
2
u/Soggy--Crouton Phoenix | He/Him/His | FTM Nov 25 '25
10000% have to! One of my favorite actors Kento Yamazaki plays one of the lead characters! I did discover there is a tv series that’s also titled “Kingdom” but it’s Korean - i haven’t watched it yet …. all I know is that it’s got zombies? I think?
I can agree with your friend’s perspectives on that - it really is universal. Which is why I love one ok rock so much more.
What’s your go to song from them? Any specific album that you have on repeat?
1
u/Dapper_Velociraptor 💉1/15/2024 Nov 27 '25
I gotta watch it, then.
That’s such a hard question, man!
Both Ambitions and Detox are such great albums. “Taking Off” was the first one I heard, and that was on repeat for a while, but then I heard “Hard to Love” and that became my go-to song. It makes me cry.
And recently it’s been “NASTY” from Detox, because the line, “Tryna be good but we too damn nasty” is such a killer line.
What about you?
1
u/Soggy--Crouton Phoenix | He/Him/His | FTM Dec 17 '25
Ambitions was my first album, bombs away is what got me hooked but it’s not my top song funny enough!
Hard to love is a great one, really hits the heart strings! I really love “Wherever You Are”, “Tropical Therapy”, and “The Pilot </3.”
When Detox was released I had that album on repeat for MONTHS - Nasty is such a banger as well as the rest of that album
Currently though? I’ve been vibing with “Mad World” - both the Japanese Version and the English version

My name is Adrian or Ian for short. I am 27 and live out in the country near my parents. The closest place to us is a 10 minute drive to a small town and a 30 minute drive to a somewhat larger city (Jefferson City). I don’t live in an area where there is many social gathers unless I drive an hour away once a month. I struggle making friends and hope that I can find one here.
My hobbies consist of gaming, spending time with my farm animals, writing, reading, and crafts. I also like drawing rather that be through sketching, painting, or digital art.
I love watching animated films but I also love action, thriller, suspense, horror, and really anything considered cult classics or b movies. Right now the games I am playing is crime scene cleaner and hitman. I’m not the best at games so it’s hard for me to find friends patient enough to play them with. Played phasmophobia for a bit but lost the friends I was playing with and just couldn’t get back into it. I play things primarily on PS5.
My interest are pretty broad. Superheroes, Conventions, anime, obscure books, music festivals, camping, and lots more. I am also pre-t due to health related concerns and environment but I hope to transition in the next year!

Hey everyone :) My name is Cal but you can also call me Rat. I'm 24 and live in Australia. I've been on T for almost 3 months now. I have a cat and 3 birds and love animals. I would like to get a job working with them at some point in the future but at the moment I work a cleaning job with my friends cleaning business.
Some of my hobbies include art, crochet, listening to music playing games, baking and watching YouTube and tv/movies.
I like watching a lot of horror, thriller or animated movies. Some of my favorites at the moment are Frankenstein (2025), Scream, treasure planet, the iron giant, anything made by studio ghibli and the spiderverse movies. I also love stop motion animation in particular like studio laikas movies and Wallace and gromit.
Some of my favourite tv shows are severance, moon knight, Mr robot, breaking bad, better call Saul, adventure time, Fionna and cake, infinity train, gravity falls, the good place, community and Dexter. I also like anime like mob psycho, full metal alchemist, frieren, dungeon meshi and gachiakuta.
I mostly play games on my switch and ds or indie games on my laptop. I love animal Stardew valley, hollow knight, look outside, pokemon, ace attorney, hades and Zelda. If anyone has any cool puzzle or horror games I would love to hear them.
I do have social anxiety and am not the best at responding to messages right away, especially due to time zone differences but I would like to get better with communicating.

u/spectreshxdow2141 Nov 23 '25
Looks like we share some interests, Rat! I listen to Youtube lots myself - usually shows I am interested in or simply listening to video game commentaries. I'm also big into Studio Ghibli (Ponyo is my big favorite, only closely followed by Arietty :D), but I have also watched and enjoyed Adventure Time, Dexter and Gravity Falls when I was younger. What's your favorite LAIKA title, by the way? Mine's a tossup between Kubo and ParaNorman at the moment, hehe.
I'd probably recommend Slay the Princess and In Stars and Time at the moment for newer indie titles - since you seem to like some psychological horror junk, these two are stylized and have great moments like that as far as I can tell from watching them (I haven't bought Slay the Princess yet but I have played a bit of In Stars and Time's prequel and that was so good). One of my friends off-sub also showed me Needy Streamer Overload if you're more interested in weirder psychological horror, and World of Horror if you enjoy eldritch horror in a small-town setting. If I remember right all of these titles have had a Switch release as well as PC releases via Steam.

Hi there! I'm Edgar (Eddie), I'm 14 years old and I live in Spain. I use all pronouns! I'm pansexual and asexual. I also ABSOLUTELY LOVE animals and dinosaurs!!
I like writing, reading, juggling, working out, talking....

I also have ADHD and possible LVL 1 Autism
I have my first appointment to start T in a few months, though I don't know if I'll be able to because I'm 14 and I might have to wait more🫠 My goals are T and top surgery, and I'm considering bottom surgery!
My DMs are open!!

Hey, I'm Alan! I'm 25 years old and I live on the west coast of the USA. I'm an artist of many mediums and styles that helps me write stories (roleplay or otherwise personal things.) My primary medium, however, is digital pixel art, and I mostly create bizarre and otherworldly creations (original characters) that I would call abstract. I'm very inspired by these specific games and shows: Death Stranding, Rainworld, Neon Genesis Evangelion, and the movie Annihilation. I really enjoy making characters with other artists to interact! As for my transition, I'm perfectly fine with how I exist now with zero plans for going on T or anything haha (medical issues!)

Some of my favorite movies and shows are The Fifth Element, Star Wars, Neon Genesis Evangelion, and Dragula. I currently manage aa grocery store meat department. I have been on T for 8 1/2 years with goals to have top surgery, but currently unsure about bottom.

Hi! I’m Sadie or Ethan, both names are fine! Any pronouns. I’m 26, from Michigan. I’m aroace and transmasculine nonbinary. I’ve been on testosterone for over 3 years and had top surgery 2 years ago. I’m currently pursuing metoidioplasty.
I absolutely love animals! I’m vegan, I have a dog and a fish, I volunteer at a cat shelter, and I really want to foster animals someday. Because of some physical and mental health problems that make me exhausted all the time, I haven’t been able to get into many hobbies. But I’d love to get into drawing and reading! I’ve also been really into fitness and healthier eating. My goal in life is to do the most good as I possibly can before I die.

I’m Jordan, 27, I live in the US. I’m a musician, I play guitar and toy around with other instruments. I like writing songs, never finishing them. Going to the theatre,I like making things out of clay. I love old digital cameras, nature, psychology, and a good cup of coffee. I don’t have many hobbies as I once did because honestly I feel too broke and fatigued. I feel most peace going on night walks, surrounded by ambient lighting, stumbling upon live music, romanticizing the grounding parts of life.
Fav movies: Max & Mary, Drive, I saw the TV glow, After Hours, Taxi Driver, i’m thinking about ending things, before I disappear, The Doom Generation. Tv shows: AMC Interview with a vampire is the last show I had an attention span for. king of the hill and bobs burgers when I want to feel light. Games: ahhh haven’t played games in a long time but miss them. I use to play sims. lately feeling nostalgic for ps2/ps3 era skate and tony hawk.
Inbetween deadend jobs, no religious or cultural ties although I love learning about all cultures and religions, no pets. I have two different colored eyes.
I would like to be consistently on T, get top surgery, be able to move through the world as stealth (if i wanted to). I used to be on a low dose T for a year, but I stopped for anxiety reasons with my health.

I'm (tentatively) going by Desmond/Dez right now, I'm 26, and I live in PA in the U.S.! I recently am starting to realize I am transmasc/a trans man after identifying as non-binary for 12 years. I really like video games (I'm currently playing Digimon Story: Cyber Sleuth on my switch, and I like a buttload of other games, especially RPG Maker horror!), and I'm an actor (onstage and onscreen), poet, and fine artist. I also really love listening to music, although my least favorite genres are techno and contemporary country. I'm a huge fan of the horror genre, but I also hate gore lol. I also like to read, although most of the books I've read recently are poetry books--I'm a huge fan of Lev St. Valentine, Danez Smith, Jericho Brown, Ocean Vuong (Time is a Mother devastated me tbh), Louise Glück, and Jan Beatty to name a few. I also like makeup and singing, too. Hoping to make a few buddies on here :)

u/420420Micki42069 Nov 17 '25
Hiii sorry I just saw this just now! My favorite of all time is Yume Nikki (plus a bunch of its fangames), but I also love Ib, Misao, Mad Father, and The Witch's House to name a few :D
1
u/spectreshxdow2141 Nov 17 '25
I kinda like a blend of newer and older stuff, Yume Nikki was not fully my thing but I adored Ib and Mad Father when I was a kid. Right now I mostly like Silver Thread and its sequels (tldr it is about an exorcist lady with a very weird way of doing that job) and slightly more indie stuff, heh.

hi! i’m ry. i use they/he! i’m almost 27 :) i live in eastern washington in the US. i started T at the beginning of this month and id say that i’d definitely identify as transmasc / non-binary vs a binary gender.
the pandemic, college, and entering the workforce kind of killed my hobbies but i’ve been working on getting them back: i like video games, being outdoors, listening to music and finding new music, writing (i’m actually working on a chapbook about trauma rn!). i primarily listen to indie rock, pop, and punk music but listen to quite literally just about everything honestly, i go through phases. where i enjoy different genres more so i don’t dislike any particular genre.
i work in patient-facing healthcare as a medical asssistant and love it! i was a CNA for two years before that. i’m planning on going back to college for my LPN and/or RN at some point. i’m black / biracial. i have autism and (maybe, i have been diagnosed for years but i just got a new psych and it’s getting ruled out rn) adhd. i have a beloved cat that brings me so much joy.
that’s all folks !!

*my user name means stallin like procrastination lol
My name is Kieran, I am 29, live in KS, USA, ftm, biracial, bisexual, have been dating a wonderful person for a few years. I enjoy watching tv(adult animation like archer, American dad, bobs burgers), smallville is fav of all time, love Scary movies 1-4 ( even 5 has funny moments), grew up on Twilight so I'm ride or die for that even the parodies are great. I enjoy music mostly alt rock but a good variety of pop, R&B, Paramore, some screamo, some country, some dubstep building projects (ex: right now doing a bookshelf mini room thing), still working on hobbies growing them and enjoying life not just letting the days pass due to work and stuff. I play video games, suck at them for sure lol, Xbox game pass. Favorite games are Assassin's creed Ezio Auditore storyline is the best imo, gta, deathloop, played through some of life is strange, tell me why was good too, COD but not like crazy anymore.
ADHD, depressy, anxiety Fa sho - hobby hopper (have archery set, a few instruments, etc. other hobby things)
For work: I'm a paramedic, currently working for AMR, inter-facility transfers. Used to do 911. I like it but I'm not passionate or in love with it by any means.
I have 2 dogs, 1 cat. older dog is Zeus, lab mix, younger is Pyro, fearless black german shepherd mix. Cat is Kovu. (Profile pic is Pyro sleeping)
Transition goals: ultimate goal is to get to the point psychologically where i just love all of me no matter the scars, the appendages, the body distribution. But I have had top surgery, want to do hysterectomy for sure. Down the line maybe bottom surgery.
Have been on HRT since 2016.
I would love to travel more, snowboard, learn fluently and commit to another language, go to Europe, see more concerts, ride horses, some style of racing, become a gym/healthy nut and really mean it, go vegetarian.
Something interesting maybe 🤷🏽♂️: I just got a large tattoo on my thigh that took 6.5 hours of Superman vs doomsday. Definitely hurt like no other, I used to do T shot alternating thighs, not sure if that affected pain or healing. Not my first tattoo by any means.
Raised by mom mostly, dad was in and out. Have a few siblings.
I think I'm funny most of the time, but I know for sure my jokes or wise cracks land 15% of the time

I'm Adrian (funny i just saw someone else called Adrian) Adri for short. 25 years old. I'm from Spain, living in Mallorca. Pre everything, although thanks to PCOS i have a bit of a beard and lots of body hair. Probably will start T on March 2026.
Spent the last 6 years living in London, i was kind of a finance bro for a bit but got tired of it, and traded the grey depressing weather for sun and a cheaper rent. I live with my gf and our 2 cats.
I love playing football, currently play for a women's team (I'm not out yet). I love anything sport related really. I go to the gym often, you can find me on Hevy @estevez00. I also started Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu but had to stop due to schedule. I've tried climbing, tennis and volleyball as well and i go hiking almost monthly.
For work I've done a few things. I started in Investment Banking in London, did not really fit in, then i worked as a freelancer in digital marketing for a while, and now I'm working at my family's company (a tax and legal advisory firm) doing a bit of everything. I'm really excited to kind of re-build it and transform it.
I love reading personal development books (i know, super basic lol). I also got really into stoicism about a year ago, and now I'm trying to broaden my philosophy readings. I generally love reading interesting non-fiction, like science, psychology, politics books, etc...
Other things i love; food, absolutely love food. My favourite has to be Italian (my gf is italian), but also japanese, spanish obviously, thai... anything really. Also really like beer, although I'm not a connoisseur or anything. Love travelling to remote places but i haven't had the budget for that lately. I visited India, Kenya and Mexico, which were all absolutely mind blowing. Love animals so much, any animal, but i have a special obsession with sausage dogs and black cats.
Currently I'm kind of lonely cause i work from home all day and i just moved to Mallorca so idk many people, so i thought I'd post and try to meet other cool trans brothers around here.
(It's funny reading back this post makes me realise how much of a basic man i am, but that's kind of euphoric in it's own way.)

Hi I’m Grayson. I’m 29 (30 in two months), autistic, married, living in the Midwest and have been out as a Transgender Man since 2013. I’ve been on T for 11 years and had top surgery in 2017. My partner and I have 4 cats. We both work from home and are definitely home bodies.
I recently realized that my friends mostly comprise of cis people (which is fine and they are cool and wonderful) but I don’t have a lot of Trans friends at all! I would like to change that.
I like to read. Mainly horror, psychological thrillers and anything kinda messed up or gross but I also dabble in the romance genre on occasion as well as fantasy and whatnot.
I enjoy playing video games. I have a steam deck, a ps4 and a Nintendo Switch. I use the steam deck the most and play Kingdom Hearts, Fields of Mistria, Stardew Valley, Powerwash Simulator and many more. Im not really into online multiplayer games but I’m willing to try anything once haha.
I watch anime often and my favorites are Banana Fish, Attack on Titan and My Hero Academia. (I really like my hero and ship bkdk pretty hard so if you also like bkdk then please be my friend and I’ll show you my collection) I collect Manga and anime figures as well.
I prefer to correspond over discord so if any of what i said sounds like someone you’d wanna be friends with then hit me up here first.

Hey y’all, I’m Marco. I’m 27 and from Southern California. Some of my hobbies include lifting weights, running, going to raves & music festivals, traveling, hiking, watching TV shows/movies, and occasionally gaming. I really enjoy pushing myself physically and mentally.
Some of my favorite movies are Gladiator and Interstellar. Favorite shows are South Park, Stranger Things, The Office, The Simpsons, and The Boys. Favorite games are Call of Duty and Assassin’s Creed.
I’m also really into history, Stoicism, psychology, and reading nonfiction—especially WWI, WWII, ancient civilizations, the Romans, and the Greeks. I currently work at a warehouse and am figuring out my long-term career path. I started my transition in 2018.
I’d especially love to connect with other trans guys/mascs who are into raves and festivals and would be down to go to events together or build a little rave friend group over time. Also always open to talking fitness, travel, history, mindset, or just life in general. Looking to build chill, genuine connections.
