I dont know how long this poster has been here it doesn’t really look like it’s been up for a week … i hope the cat hasn’t been missing for months. but maybe it just rained or something. It is london after all
Ive been having the exact same thoughts but in the other direction, often i think id prefer to be known by a more normal name, like my middle name. I guess i can just do that, since plenty of people go by their middle names, but it does feel kind of confusing like idk if i made a mistake or if this is just internalized social pressure, or if its just a manifestation of my general self dislike that’ll fade with time, idk. Anyway it is the name i use on here so i guess for now i can keep using it
It is also a big stupid thorn in my side that my name is generally read as exclusively male in Europe and i keep getting misgendered in written communication, like when i email my gp. Though that might just be intentional misgendering from my experiences there

I did this with last.fm api data a few years ago (here) and it looks about the same tbh
It’s not great, but i coildny really think of a better way of visualizing it and it was just an afternoons worth of work, so i think im ok with it
