#reintroduction — Public Fediverse posts

Hello! My name is Christina (she/her) and I like games. Video games, board games, card games, roleplaying games, all of them. I have an extra soft spot for anything dungeon crawler-y. :blobcat: <- blobber

I'm a trans woman from Sweden 🇸🇪, planning to move to Luxembourg 🇱🇺. I'm currently studying to be a mechanic.

I'm a self-taught programmer, doing some game development from time to time. Currently working on my dark fantasy dungeon crawler using #Godot4. I also enjoy knitting and cooking.

"#BisonReintroduction programs have gained traction on #TribalLands in the United States and Canada in recent years... In September the U.S. Department of the Interior reaffirmed its commitment to herd #reintroduction, allotting $5 million to the restoration of #bison and #grassland ecosystems in Tribal communities."

#introduction (or, more accurately, #reintroduction)

I'm not quite an internet old timer, but I've been on social media since the mid 1990s (good old dial-up and Usenet).

I live in Australia on Woiworong land (in Melbourne's north).

I work in the analytics, digital, and social media space.

I'm a (computer) geek, drummer, and amateur photographer. I'll be talking about a lot of different things and you'll definitely get to see lots of photos of my dog :)

I also love puns. #YouHaveBeenWarned
