i am soni. i am 19 years old. im a sagittarius (late as hell into the year birthday). i was born and raised and still live in the southern part of the united states. im an ex-femme, and my gender is complicated but is best described as "boydykething" or "a girl but also a boy but also neither but also both at the same time and seperately". i am a lesbian and take pride in the intersections between my gender and sexuality. i wanna be a butch when i grow up!!!
i have a girlfriend who i have been with since late jan '23. i love her greatly and am very obsessed with her. i am objectively insane and a lot to handle, but she is very patient and loving- i am eternally grateful for her desire to stick around and put up with me. i dont want to get too gushy and gay but she is very smart and funny and charming and beautiful and awesome and i love her more than anything :3
i graduated early from high school at 16 and i am now what one would consider a NEET. i don't have many friends irl, though i am not the most social to begin with. this used to bother me a lot growing up and even in recent times, but ive come to appreciate being alone (given i was constantly on various substances during my "socialite era" which was what even allowed me to tolerate such scenarios). looking back though, ive always kinda preferred being somewhat alone. i just wanted to be percieved as cool (and i think im pretty cool now :P)
i really enjoying learning/teaching myself new skills, usually in regards to art. aside from web building, i enjoy collecting cute things, listening to music, baking on occasion, petting my wife, video games, decorating my apartment, playing guitar (and a bit of ukulele), and thrifting.
video games
i usually stick to casual games and visual novels, because a lot of more action-driven games are very anxiety inducing for me. even minecraft mobs bring my heart rate way up lmfao. i really enjoy story focused and art focused games anyway, so it works out.
some of my favorite games include minecraft (classic, grew up with it), milk outside a bag of milk, fran bow, undertale (nostalgic!), q.u.q., rental, needy girl overdose, and life is strange.
ive recently been playing webfishing and like to play muse dash, overwatch 2 (very bad at btw), and transformice on occasion.
also, this is a board game but i am a beast at mancala.
music
i listen to essentially anything and everything, though my favorite genres consist of shoegaze, art pop, math rock, electronic, skramz, and other alternative & indie subgenres.
cocteau twins is my all-time favorite band. aside from them, some of my other favorites include grimes, mitski, the sundays, and swirlies.
my father had a large influence on my musical arsenal- he essentially witnessed the birth and rise of rap and hip-hop in the 80s 90s and 00s, so the vast majority of what he listens to is music from that era. some of his favorites include 2pac (and digital underground), eminem (lol), michael jackson, outkast, dr dre, and jay-z. i note this to say that i grew up with this music because of him, and have a large appreciation for it and its influence.

art
i am and have been an artist since the dawn of my time. i view the world and function as a person through an artistic lens, and believe being autistic plays a big role in that. i am very particular about everything i do and the vast majority of my hobbies stem from a creative standpoint. i am organizational and very detail-oriented. ive been told i have "an eye for what looks good" and that "my brain is very focused on creativity". i express myself in any artistic means possible, including this website, my clothing (usually), the way i decorate my apartment, and more.
my primary medium for a while was jewelry/metalwork. in recent times i havent been doing a whole lot, but i enjoy sewing and sculpting (and jewelry still). im not the best at illustration or painting, but id love to learn more in the future. i do have a bit of experience with acrylic paint though. i also really want to get into toy customization/making, and so far have made a hand sewn plushie for my wife and have started on a custom littlest pet shop.
collections
antiques, littlest pet shop, tokidoki [mostly] unicorno, sanrio, plushies, blind box minifigs, miku figures, re-ment miniatures, records and cds, sticker sheets and other cute stationery, squishies, vintage clothing, steam badges, cameras, cute dishes.
i explain my collections vaguely, though a lot of these consist of few items or a variety of things - i am just a collector of things that bring me joy at the end of it all, and my goal is usually not to complete or maximize
