    Custom title + profile info is pretty accurate. Discuss. Ask me questions. I'm really, REALLY bad at this.

    Very nice. Very affectionate. Sadly I have few friends at all because there's so much hate out there for all the different aspects of me that I never feel comfortable being myself in public. It takes a lot to break me out of my shell. Like, a lot a lot.

    I try to tell myself it doesn't matter what others think of me. And it works...online.

    hi?

    Thanks for all the warm welcomes, guys!

    I wasn't searching Google to make a safe name, although that is quite interesting, The result in question just seems to be a random data dump, though. Only my current SO who I trust absolutely knows the details about it, but I can tell you it's from a constructed language, and is the name of an alter-ego character of mine. Properly, it would have an accent over the first <A> to show stress.

    The letter <Q> normally stands for the sound [d͡z], but adding <X> to a letter signifies retraction, moving it back to [d͡ʒ], the English "J" sound. <J> signifies an English "Y" sound or diphthong with , like in many European languages.

    If you don't know IPA, just say Jay-AHN. Or stick to typing it only :lol:

    I hope so too.

    A quote that is near and dear to my heart:
    "We're all going to die, all of us, what a circus! That alone should make us love each other but it doesn't. We are terrorized and flattened by trivialities, we are eaten up by nothing."
