Minoanmiss/Rubynye, she/her
have been becoming more of a homebody over the last few years
Self-soothing: listening to music and watching gentle nonfiction. I just discovered a TV show about the Georgia Aquarium and a Youtube channel by a boy who does chemistry for fun.
I hope to maintain a window on the world here
I can offer childish art and random facts!
