<![CDATA[Someone told me that it couldn't hurt to make something like an introduction post, so here it is.]]>Someone told me that it couldn't hurt to make something like an introduction post, so here it is. I guess you could probably describe me as an ancient old being with many, but not very age appropriate hobbies. I'm not very good at any of them, but that's just my bad luck.

Interests include:
- reading good books, writing bad fanfics and even worse comedy sketches
- crochet, painting, crafts (e.g. building plastic models, making accessories for crochet dolls)
- anime/manga/games
- British comedy
- (mostly old) films and TV shows
- Japanese culture/history/literature
- learning something new about things I'm interested in (and I'm interested in many things)
- collecting various stuff

Also sorry for my terrible English, I'm not a native speaker.

I'm unlikely to be someone you want to follow, but @wim_v12e is a scot who seems to love all things japanese and can read and write it.
I do like british comedy though, in general.
Your english is wonderful - and I am a native speaker from the uk.

Yeah, I try to tell myself that too, but I do often get a bit impatient when I've been doing something for years and there's not much improvement.

Welcome to the Fediverse!

You may want to follow the hashtag and @ crochet@fedigroups.social for crocheting and for gaming @ gaming@fedigroups.social (spaced to avoid unnecessary spam on the groups) πŸ™‚

Groups are awesome and let you build your home timeline by discovering and following amazing people

I never used social network, before joining either, but got used to it fast. As for gaining content to garnish your feed, start following people, even if there is a minor overlap in your interest. You can unfollow later, no worries (people won't get notified if you unfollow them). Search for hashtags around your interests and hobbies and follow those too. Look at the federated timeline – lots of stuff happening over there. It will take a few days to properly kickstart your feed.

Our hobbies don’t overlap much but I know I’ve seen people here who share yours! Have you found some relevant hashtags to follow? You can follow hashtags before you follow people. Useful for the shy

Welcome!
