Ever since my Non-Internet Best Friend and I were younger, we've used pseudonyms for people on our blogs. These pseudonyms evolved to more artistic and complicated titles used on my old Tumblr blog.

While I like to be fairly open about my life in public, I know many others don't. The tradition of pseuds has continued in the hopes of granting others in my life some anonymity. Friends who want their internet spaces linked have those in their bios also!

Below is the list of people & places mentioned on this blog. It should be updated as people are mentioned.

Last update: 2 October 2025


People (& Pets)

Ani - [he/him/his] Pronounced AH-nee. Japanese for "my older brother (who I'm talking to)," he died of a heroin overdose in 2016. I will be in love with him for the rest of my life.

Abby [personal profile] angelsaves - [she/her/hers] Witch, artist, educator, and lover of all things bright and colorful! Formerly local to me, now part of my digital spiderweb, mwahaha.

Dawn [personal profile] dawnsupernova (Also: Nova, Supernova) - [she/they] My partner & resident of Cat House. Resident technological enthusiast, my part-time caregiver, and my peoples' favorite home chef.

(DyingWithin)Amber - [he/him/his] Ani's best friend and the first boy I ever fell in love with at the ripe age of 12. He died of unclear addiction complications in 2021.

The King of Hard Decisions - [he/him/his] Originally the King of Bad Decisions, a former lover and Camp Sweet Water coworker who is near and dear to my heart

Non-Internet Best Friend - [e/em/ems] BFF since age 10. My soulmate in the most practical sense of the word. I tell my romantic partners to understand NIBF is #1 and will be for the rest of my life. E has myalgic encephalomyelitis (ME), formerly called chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) [sometimes written ME/CFS] triggered by a COVID-19 infection in 2022 and e is now bedbound. "Non-Internet" because e prefers minimal internet identity or social media presence.

The Oddest Shade of Blue - [they/them/theirs] Sometimes in MN, sometimes in Ohio. Friend and occasional Humble Roommate. I met Blue on Tumblr in 2010 but now we're siblings, basically, and we've weathered some real-life utter bullshit together.

Stink Mikenzie [personal profile] stink_mikenzie (also: Mik, Mikki) - [she/her/hers] Artist, witch, jewelry maker, and book lover. Dawn's wife, my metamour, & resident of Cat House!

Sunpuncher - [he/him/his] Extremely brief fling in the weeks surrounding my wedding, autumn 2020

Three Headed Girl Dogs - Dog House has two living dogs, Wow (she) and Butterfly (she); and one late dog, Little Bit (she). They were all littermates and the remaining two are about 8.5 years old. They are white Westie/Maltese mixes and related to The Oddest Shade of Blue's dogs! This tag is for any/all dog writing.

Void - [they/them/theirs] Similarly to NIBF, this person does not like identifiable information on the internet! We've been friends, partners, roommates, and other things.

Places

Camp Sweet Water (also: Sweet Water, Bright Stars) - summer camp for kids & youth with disabilities I worked for in the 2010s

Cat House - Half of where I live right now. In the city proper. As you may guess, where the cats live!

Dog House - Half of where I live right now. In the suburbs. Where the dogs live!
