Get to Know Me(me) by struguri

Yanked this from Viral_Divinity. Felt like since I've acquired a few new watchers, and folks might be curious, why not.

What's your real name?
A work in progress.

How tall are you?
A bit too tall, frankly.

What's your natural hair color?
Unnatural purple.

What's your eye color?
Green.

What's your orientation?
Pansexual with a skoliosexual bent. There's something that I enjoy about the spectrum of presentation that transgender people are capable of. There's something charming and attractive about it. Perhaps it's why I identify myself as a dicklady.

Are you single, taken or undecided?
Currently dating 5p1ic3 in a poly relationship.

What do you do in your sparetime?
A lot of things. Right now I'm distracting myself with trying to get the Visual Studio compilation tools to work well with Wine. I have my reasons.

But in all seriousness, I'm a jill of all trades, mistress of none, but incredibly happy I'm no mistress of one. I reverse-engineer things such as computer viruses and exploits, I draw, I produce music, I write code. I'm quite a busy girl. :)

What's your job or occupation?
Studying computer viruses.

What do you like about yourself?
Being an in-between. I take pride in being a non-op transgirl comfortable enough in her own skin to take on any valid curiosities most folk tend to have about the process. I had a blast at FC2014 not only answering that ever-curious heterosexual cisgender male question "what are you going to do with your dick," but explaining in clear, concise words why that curiosity, while genuine, will ultimately come off as incredibly offensive and harmful. Being able to educate and explain things makes me happy. :)

What do you dislike about yourself?
I can be stubborn sometimes. I can be a bit assertive. And, dangit, I sure wish I were more curvy!

What did your friends notice about you when they first met you?
I find that most folks at least seem to think I'm intelligent on first meeting. That makes me smile. :)

What is your belief/religion if you believe in anything at all?
A private matter.

Do you drink?
Like a DEFCON goon.

Do you smoke?
Only marijuana and hookah.

What are your major fears?
Closed-source. ;)

Do you have any dreams or goals?
Yeah. One of the goals I have with directing this site is to sort of "rewrite" what it means to be a furry. And I don't mean this in the sense of removing porn or any of the stereotypical stories we've heard throughout the years. What I mean by this is to rewrite what it means to be an accepting furry community.

What I really like the idea of is helping furries feel like they can be safe being themselves around people who aren't furries. There's a major problem I've noticed from my long time in this community, and that's the collective isolationism. I've written about it before. There's this malaise that seems to hover over furry, that they're not welcome anywhere but where they, themselves, create a new land.

This mentality makes me sad. It's this sort of self-defeated attitude, this concept of having to carve out a new, isolated niche because one's laurels are unaccepted. Frankly, in my interactions with non-furs of all kinds who know of the community, it's more this isolationist mentality that upsets them more than our decisions on the proper worship of Eros.

So I suppose, one day, I dream of seeing the talented artists in the furry community gain the respect they truly deserve for their talent. And part of that is helping to raise the bar. So hopefully, with the help of others, I can accomplish this task. :)

Have you ever had a crush or an ex?
Oh, I've still got crushes. And when it comes to exes, sometimes I'm not really looking at my phone when wandering around con.

Who's your best buddy?
I'll just let Bad Religion answer this for me.

What's your favorite dish?
Spicy panang curry! I love a good peanut sauce.

What's your favorite drink?
Probably a midori sour.

What's your favorite color?
Well...

If you had a super power, what would it be?
What, you don't have super powers? ;)

What's your favorite movie?
Rubber. It's perhaps the most brilliant satire I've ever seen.

What's your least favorite food?
Boiled pig liver. I tried it at a Cantonese restaurant. It was chalky. They probably overcooked it.

What's the last meal you want before you die?
The blood of the wicked dripping from my jaws.

What do you drive and what would you really like to drive?
I'd really enjoy getting myself behind a Tesla Roadster.

What is your most disliked bug?
Heisenbugs. Fuckers are goddamn impossible to debug without weed.

What pet peeves do you dislike the most?
I try to avoid pet-peeves.

What do you dislike in life?
Selfishness. Avarice. People who manipulate the weak for their own carnal desires. There's nothing that infuriates me more than watching the most able-minded of creatures obsess and lust over material nonsense such as sacrificing honesty and honor for the sake of winning an argument. There's nothing that drives me into a rage quite like the abuses of "Fuck You Got Mine" in all its forms.

    I don't really have much to say (aside from that must have been some really badly cooked liver to make it chalky), but I do want to say that your goals for the furry fandom are definitely something I'd love to see come to fruition.

    i like your answers! i shoulda made time to say hi at fc ;_; cons are busy

    You seem like a very interesting person. Those "Fuck You Got Mine" people are the worst, especially the one I'm stuck dealing with presently. I admire your goals for the fandom as well as your stance on morality. Words. I promise my control of the English language is better than I'm currently demonstrating.

      Aww, all of that is very sweet of you to say! I appreciate the kind words. n..n

      Sorry to hear you're dealing with a pest of that variety. Good luck managing it.

        But of course!

        And thank you.
