Favorite games

2. Persona 4 Golden
3. Clair Obscur: Expedition 33
4. DRAGON QUEST XI S: Echoes of an Elusive Age
5. Persona 5 Royal
6. Team Fortress 2
7. Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous
8. The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion
9. RimWorld
10. Saints Row 2

Clothes

Specific pieces of note:

• Outlier Dreamweight Normies – I wear these almost exclusively. Lightweight and breathable. Performs well in heat and humidity. It’ll also shrug off a drizzle like it’s nothing.
• Outlier Futuregliders – Has a drape with character. Love the silhouette.

Other brands I like:

• In Good Company – Their menswear is alright, but the women’s line is where it’s at.
• Reckless Ericka – Lots of pretty prints, but only in feminine styles.
• SABRINAGOH – Architectural designs. Love the drape on their pieces.
• Our Barehands – Linen, mostly made-to-order, customizations available.

Things I want to do but might never get around to

My ADHD brain prevents me from sticking with a hobby for long.

• Write and publish a novel(la).
• Get good enough at a craft to the point where I’d be comfortable selling what I make.
• Learn to play the piano, but I’d settle for just the harmonica.
