what's good?
Hi, I'm Valerie - but my friends just call me Val! I'm a 24-year-old pansexual polyamorous (but monogamous) woman inhabiting the Internet and occasionally the surrounding meatspace. My pronouns are she/her (but they/them is alright too, I guess!). I am transgender, although you won't catch me drawing attention to that too often, and I have been enjoying hormone replacement therapy since March 2nd, 2020. Nice to meet you!
I have a B.S. degree in Computer Science, and I am studying and working on certifications for desktop administration. Until then, my role in life is to whip coffee at people at Starbucks, and I do it with a smile because my coworkers are the world to me.
I acted as a co-founding officer of my college's Rhythm Game Club for 2 years. Predictably, rhythm games are a major part of my life - those from the BEMANI series. My main game is beatmaniaIIDX, and I also play DanceDanceRevolution, SOUND VOLTEX, jubeat, pop'n music, NOSTALGIA, and Pump It Up.
I produce original 4-panel pad stepcharts (step sequences) for the DanceDanceRevolution simulator "StepMania" and original sabuns (custom note charts) in the BMS format for use with Beatmania simulators like Lunatic Rave 2 or Beatoraja.
I am an amateur trackmaker using FL Studio 20. I produce trance, hardcore, progressive, and speed genres (albeit poorly!)
I am a Twitch streamer and a proud part of the IIDX streaming community. I have met individuals through this network who have changed my life and shaped me into the person I am today and I owe them dearly for giving me a better angle on life.
I like cars (especially those of the rotary variety), competitive and arcade gaming, electronic music, anime, the color purple, helping and learning about people, all things soft and cute and fluffy, and last but not least my wonderful boyfriend and adorable girlfriend, both of whom I met through IIDX and both of whom I am so blessed to have in my life. 💜
do not interact with me if you...
are transphobic, homophobic, or otherwise bigoted towards those with gender identities or sexual interests different from your own. TERFs in particular need not apply.
are racist, sexist, ableist, or otherwise bigoted towards people born differently than you.
discriminate against people for their beliefs if those beliefs are not harmful to others.
basically, if you're an asshole to people in general.
support the Blue Lives Matter movement.
are a political extremist on either side of the fence and you can't help but drag it up everywhere you go.
if you are elitist to the point of belittling others for their personal accomplishments because they aren't on the same level as you.
