I'm Agatha, I'm on my late 20's, I'm trans, lesbian and undiagnosed but pretty sure. I have a ton of hobbies, so it's always hard to talk about all of them when I'm presenting myself.
I like computers, a lot. Which makes me the average trans girl who studies CompSci, mess with coding and spend a lot of time configuring and ricing Linux (I don't use Arch btw). Also, I have a particular interest in cybersec and pentesting.
I love linguistics. My native language is Portuguese, but I've studied French and German. Also, some time ago, I've studied a bit o Russian and Japanese. Currently, I've been learning Spanish, because is the native language of my cute wife :3
Even though I have been intereseted in computers since a very young age, I have studied a lot of humanities, mainly History - I am a historian lol so you can spend hours talking to me about human sciences and some stuff like that. I've researched medieval social history for some time during my graduation.
I'm also a musician, currently playing bass on a alt-rock/post-grunge/post-punk band, you can access our spotify on the Links session. I'm not very technical but I play it good purely for hobby. My "main" instrument is drums btw. I wish someday someone invites me to play in a hardcore metal band lol.
I love to read. Sometimes I participate in debate groups about books of specific topics. I'm a enthusiastic of the cyberpunk genre, which made me read some books from William Gibson (Neuromancer is my goat), Phillip K. Dick and authors of this type. Inspired by them, I wrote some sci-fi short stories.
I have a profound interest in the symbolism of Tarot. I use a Raider-Waite cyberpunk themed deck called Neon Moon to make personal readings.
As you can see, I love Serial Experiments Lain, it's my favorite anime. I like other 90's animes like Cowboy Bebop, Evangelion and Ghost in the Shell (I love GitS so much!). About modern anime, I watch basically only yuri with my gf xD
About videogames (were you thinking I wasn't going to talk about videogames, huh?) I mostly play JRPG's and retro games from the PSX era.
I love to learn new things, I'm always searching for something new to read, watch, study and play, so feel free to share your thoughts about our common interests with me!
