Hi there! - eviltoast

Hello! This is my first time using the “threadiverse”. I joined this instance because there’s a lot of interesting stuff going on on Lemmy and Kbin. I heard about this part of the fediverse only recently, mainly coinciding with the controversy on Reddit, though I’ve been using the fediverse since even before Twitter got stupid.

Like my profile suggests, I’m into environmental science and policy issues, and have gotten myself sucked into some local native plant groups and doing wildlife observation stuff. I’m also a musician, and I enjoy videogames as well, mainly older ones.

Shown here is the full version of the photo from which I got my avatar. It’s my own photo. There’s a snapping turtle that can be occasionally sighted at a nearby park. Sidenote: snapping turtles look way more elegant in the water.

OMG I can edit the thread OP! I remember this specifically being impossible on Reddit lol
