this page serves as my way to introduce myself to you. perhaps you find yourself wanting to know more about the creator of this website, maybe you just like reading about random folks on the internet, or maybe you see a little of yourself in this site and want to see if reading about me helps you understand yourself more. so, let's talk about me, emma.
i'm emma, i'm in my younger 30s. I am a child of the late 90s and 2000s, and spent a lot of time on or around computers when i was younger. i'm nonbinary and bisexual, when i am able to order my pronouns i tend to order them in the way i typically feel i identify with the strongest, the order i chose in this case beeing she/they/he. much of my adulthood feels like i've been catching up with things other folks figured out about themselves in their teens and early 20s. i don't mind though, i'm simply happy i'm figuring these things out about myself. i find that knowledge and understanding of myself usually comes through knowledge and understanding of other people, as most of my life i've not really socialized with anyone that i would say really understands me.
i don't mean this in a "no one gets me" kind of way. genuinely i feel misundersttod until i've begun to seek out communities and people that see things and feel about things, in similar ways to me. i know, shocking i'm sure. emma's learned she has to surround herself with people who get her if she wants to feel understood, you'd be surpised how far one can go in life without learning this.

i have a cat, named baxter. maybe you've seen his homepages, maybe you've seen me gush about him in the 32 bit cafe discord server. whatever thecase, it must be said that i love my cat so much. him and i have been through a lot together, and we look out for each other as any human and pet that has formed a bond would. he knows me well and i know him well. we both don't like loud noises, nor do either of us really like dogs barking. we both look forward to meals, though i think he has a better appetite than i do most of the time. he knows the value of relaxing, something i've only learned recently. i hope to one day master his understanding of being present, and being in the moment.
