Rewild. Mutual aid. Smash capitalism.

Interests include tech, audio production, crafting and meteorology. I am politically left of center and religiously agnostic. I am totally blind from birth from microphthalmia and have prosthetic eyes. I was a medical transcriptionist for over 25 years and remain interested in medicine. I am curious and somewhat pessimistic. The three things that worry me most are political/religious extremism, economic and social inequality and the increasing loss of trust in each other.
