Hello, fellow EMC players. The below info shows everything you need to know about me.

I am a founder of the Minecraft Paradise Outpost on SMP6. That is where I spend most of my time on EMC. We mainly specialize in building, but we also try to make our transportation systems better than you'd find most other places and have farms to obtain various items. We have a very organized democracy. If you would like to join, please PM me. Make sure you check often for an application, but keep in mind that it may be a while and that you're not guaranteed to get accepted. We do have every biome from before 1.13. Unfortunately, we only have one Mushroom Island, and only one Ice Spikes that is completely within our boundaries, but we do have more Ice Spikes partially in our boundaries, and we have two each of even Badlands and Jungle.

I have various hobbies in real life, as well. They include riding around, drawing, partying, studying maps, studying the weather, playing outside (if it's not hot or too cold), hanging out with my friends, and of course, gaming. I even live on a 160+ acre farm where we have four-wheeling trails and several creeks. The property owners, my parents, and I enjoy what we have, and we always try to think about what we can do to improve even more.

I have a Jack Russell Terrier that has been with us since July 2012. She's still going strong, even after all these years!

I do play other games, too. They include, but aren't limited to, Cities:Skylines, Banished, Transport Fever 2 and American Truck Simulator. The only multiplayer server on a game I currently play on is EMC, because most others seem like they're not interesting, too small, or not good servers for my kind of person.

I am also a minority in two ways. First, I am on the autism spectrum. I was diagnosed when I was only two, and am very lucky compared to most autistic people. I would like to tell you all, as someone living with it, that it can be hard, but isn't always extreme. If you would like to know more about Autism, there is a documentary called Autism in Love. I recommend it, because the words are from four people living with Autism and their families. Coincidentally, April 2nd is both my mother's birthday and Autism Awareness Day. Secondly, I also am part of the LGBT+ community because I am gay. I haven't had a boyfriend yet as of May 2024, but am trying to find one. Fortunately, my mom, friends, grandmothers, closest cousins and aunts/uncles are supportive, and I wish everyone was this lucky. I support equality for all (including animal rights), too. I believe that every human has value as long as they do what they enjoy without being mean to others, and that animals and even plants are very valuable (and in the case of animals, I believe should be equal) forms of life too.

I do also study climate and the weather, and I was fortunate to be born into the subtropical climate of the southeastern USA. I was born in Middle Tennessee and have lived there all my life. My favorite season is Summer because I hate the cold and love storms and bright sunlight, plus I prefer green trees over dead-looking or autumn-colored ones and like flowers. My least favorite is Winter for the reasons stated before, combined with my seasonal anxiety in November, December and January. I prefer autumn over spring due to the warmer, more stable weather and continued green/barren landscape, although I'd still choose late spring over late autumn for the same reasons as summer and winter. I even have a thread about the seasons.

Do you like to draw and/or look at drawings? I do have a thread where I post some of my digital drawings, and as stated above, I do like to draw; but it's mostly (not entirely, of course) summer/spring stuff because I like colorful stuff and green stuff, and value life in general.

I hope you found this interesting. If you would like to talk to me, you may PM me, but as always, please do not be rude.
