Did you know that the #Egyptian god #Set changed over time. In the #OldKingdom he was a clever trickster who played jokes on other gods. It was only when #Osiris became a popular god in around 1200bc that Set began to be seen as purely evil.

#introduction time! I'm an #engineer living in the Netherlands with my wife, dog, and cat. We all have fandom names if you count the #shakespeare fandom.

I'm into #sff and #videogames, like: #botw #oot #pokemon #oldkingdom #spiritwalker #nkjemisin #asimov #murderbot #startrek

I also like #hiking and soft #adventure, especially the #grandcanyon and #geocaching.

I guess I'm here because because #snails.
