<p>Hi, this is not about football today 🙂 </p><p>For the last few years I've been collecting my written work and I've finally started –through the magic of corporate incompetence allowing me to have some creative time– to compile and organise it all. Or some of it.</p><p>In the text there is little about politics, and there is plenty about literary theory, the philosophy of creativity, and from there, a theory is forming at the intersection of Borgesian fiction and Georg Cantor's maths.</p><p>(1/2)<br><a href="/tags/intro/" rel="tag">#intro</a></p>

Another giant introduction
<p>Hi everyone! I don't know what happened to my pinned introduction, so here is a somewhat new one.</p><p>I've been here in the Fedi since 2017. You can listen to an interview at the link below.</p><p>I'm a blind and gay writer. I keep a blog. I call it my soul on the internet because you won’t get the same thing every time. I write huge rants. I write short narrative stories about eating ice cream like it's the first time I'm having an orgasm. I write lyrical musings about crying in the shower. I pen essays about battling with a smart fridge. You'll never get just one thing with me and my website.</p><p>As for fiction, I write M/M Romance featuring blind and or disabled people, because disabled people deserve happy endings too. My romances generally always have a HEA instead of an HFN. I'm not the best with series. I also tend to enjoy doing novellas rather than full length novels, but I do novels as well. It's just that novellas are my comfort zone.</p><p>My Romances are quite angsty. They ask a lot of questions of the reader, and they feature things I'm extremely proud of, like in my young adult Romances I feature things like supportive gay dads to a teenager. I don't shy away from potentially triggering subjects because it mirrors my own life.</p><p>That being said, if you don't like angsty Romances, I'm probably not your author but I also pen happy Romances too, like one I just finished where a Chef that's lost his sense of taste falls in love with a Blind taste tester because of a job he put out onto the internet. I love exploring dynamics such as that in a very slow, character centric, way.</p><p>My blog/website has everything about me. It's the best way to get inside of my head. I don't use video based spaces often because I'm blind so video spaces really don't interest me.</p><p>My blog is also a podcast for folks that prefer listening to reading.</p><p>I listen to podcasts religiously, especially fiction podcasts. Podcast audiobooks. Fiction audio dramas. All kinds of fiction podcasts.</p><p>I'm an audiobook reader.</p><p>I love reading character driven stories.</p><p>Some additional things that bring me profound joy.</p><p>Boy bands. Anime. Video games. Nerd media. Cookies. Video game music. Chocolate. Ice cream. Cats. Listening to audio only let’s Plays via podcasts. Cookies. Yes, I said it twice! That's how much I love them!</p><p>I rarely wear clothes that match. I wear things for comfort. Fabrics that feel good to me.</p><p>I take extensive social media breaks, especially in the summer/fall time because that's when I'm doing events, hanging out with offline people, and terrorizing my local town.</p><p>I'm huge into local activism and local change because I believe that all local progress, especially on a mass scale, will cause national politics to buck up and maybe actually do things for its voter base.</p><p>I'm a tech geek that hates everything tech culture. I also hate everything hustle culture. Influencer culture. Bletch.</p><p>As for links, the only two links of mine you'll need are below but I also included an interview link.</p><p>My podcast, <a href="https://weirdwritings.pinecast.co/" rel="nofollow"><span class="invisible">https://</span>weirdwritings.pinecast.co/</a> </p><p>My website. <a href="https://sightlessscribbles.com/" rel="nofollow"><span class="invisible">https://</span>sightlessscribbles.com/</a> </p><p>Interview with me on Fediverse <a href="/tags/accessibility/" rel="tag">#Accessibility</a> <a href="https://audio.firesidefedi.live/@firesidefedi/episodes/robert-kingett-accessibility-in-the-fediverse" rel="nofollow" class="ellipsis" title="audio.firesidefedi.live/@firesidefedi/episodes/robert-kingett-accessibility-in-the-fediverse"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">audio.firesidefedi.live/@fires</span><span class="invisible">idefedi/episodes/robert-kingett-accessibility-in-the-fediverse</span></a></p><p><a href="/tags/intro/" rel="tag">#Intro</a> <a href="/tags/introduction/" rel="tag">#Introduction</a> <a href="/tags/introductions/" rel="tag">#Introductions</a> <a href="/tags/fediverse/" rel="tag">#Fediverse</a> <a href="/tags/mastodon/" rel="tag">#Mastodon</a> <a href="/tags/romance/" rel="tag">#Romance</a> <a href="/tags/romancelandia/" rel="tag">#RomanceLandia</a></p>

<p>My name is Sashin.</p><p>I am functioning as a software developer but I am an aspiring writer.</p><p>I am passionate about clear communication, left-wing politics (anarchism, human rights and anti-bigotry), free software and animal rights.</p><p>I want to develop a deep understanding about how the world works, spread that knowledge and work towards making it a better place.</p><p>I love anime and manga.</p><p>My favourite manga is <a href="/tags/onepiece/" rel="tag">#onepiece</a> which I have been reading every week since I was in highschool. </p><p>My favourite anime is probably The Tatami Galaxy. </p><p>I also like Ping Pong the Animation, Kino's Journey, Cowboy Bebop, Legend of the Galactic Heroes, Ghost in the Shell Stand Alone Complex, Gintama and many others.</p><p>I am have been learning Japanese largely on my own for the last five years. I've changed around how I have been approaching it, but have settled on immersion (lots of watching and listening to content in the language) as the best way. </p><p>I do flashcards everyday using Anki, where I learn ten new words and review words I already know and I am basically always listening to something in Japanese so long as I am not interacting with people or doing something that commands a lot of attention (so while walking, cleaning, cooking etc I am always listening, I also have a shower speaker). I don't do anything every special with my attention when immersing, I think the subconscious is where the magic of language acquisition happens.</p><p>I also love video games, I have a steam deck which I have more or less perpetually docked and connected to my housemate's projector. My favourite game is probably Undertale. I also love The Witcher 3, The Legend of Zelda and Hollow Knight.</p><p>Anyway it's nice to meet everyone!</p><p>よろしくお願いします！</p><p><a href="/tags/introduction/" rel="tag">#introduction</a> <a href="/tags/intro/" rel="tag">#intro</a> <a href="/tags/introductions/" rel="tag">#introductions</a></p>
