New around here? Want to introduce yourself? Here's a thread! Or if that whole practice makes you want to disappear, uh...Make someone up, or introduce your pet instead!

Whatever floats your boat, and hey, if you have a boat, introduce that boat!

Oh, and before I forget (again), I've written a relatively brief FAQ to help folks find their way around here.

Hello! I'm also from Reddit, for like 11yrs. I usually don't post anything online ever, but I am going to try to contribute here sometimes. :) My hobbies/interests are anything Pokémon, arts and crafts, reading, TV, gaming, cats, cooking, plants, Critical Role and paranormal/true crime podcasts. I have 2 doofy cats, Loki and Xandis. Currently, I am super duper excited for Baldur's Gate 3! Also excited to make hopefully the best potato salad I've ever made tomorrow.

Yess! :) Astonishing Legends is what really got me into paranormal podcasts! They have good host chemistry, it's fun to listen to them. They go on tangents a lot. Highly recommend the Mothman, Black Eyed Kids and Vertical Plane episodes! And That's Why We Drink is fun, it's a couple of friends, one tells a paranormal story, one tells a true crime story. This Paranormal Life is sillier, they take turns telling each other paranormal stories, then they vote on whether they think it's real or not. Haunted Road - host tells a story about a place, then speaks to someone who works there and they discuss what they've experienced there, or what guests have experienced. Scared To Death - a couple tell each other scary stories, and try to scare each other. Spooked - different people telling their paranormal stories every episode. This one is usually really well made, the stories are really interesting! Used to be mostly a premium subscription podcast, but is now free!
