Hello! I'm Maya, but some also call me kirby or nom. My profile pic here, and everywhere else, is of Carmine from the Pokemon Scarlet/Violet dlc. She is my favourite fictional character to ever exist (This art of her is a commission from my close friend cloudykeyz on bluesky)

I have a lot of showcases below showing off many of my favourite games, but a few that can't be displayed here include the Kirby, 2D Zelda, and Pokemon series. Despite that, my main 3 genres are roguelites, puzzle games, and incrementals. I also very much enjoy the archipelago randomizer.

I like watching stream vods and highlights from Sinder, AstralSpiff, Vinesauce, Northernlion, Aliensrock, Joseph Anderson, and RTGame, as well as falling asleep to Skurry vods. When at work I love to listen to video essays and discussion content, with some favourite creators being Dylan the Knight Owl, Moon Channel, Flawed Peacock, Fredrik Knudsen, Mujin, STRANGE AEONS, and too many UT/DR theory channels to name. I also spend a lot of time talking to my friends and girlfriend, and watching them stream games on discord. Additionally, I'm a big Kasane Teto enjoyer.

Additionally, while I've been out of my weeb phase for years, I do still quite enjoy manga. My absolute favourite is Nana to Kaoru, although my preferred genre is yuri romcom. I am also very much so a masochist, so outside of reading the very few good lesbian bdsm manga that exist, I also spend a lot of time listening to the lovely audios on r/GWASapphic (shoutouts RoteDisaster) or posting the occasional erotic writings to AO3 under the username kirbynom.

Personality wise, I always try to be very kind and respectful, although my preference towards sarcasm can sometimes unintentionally lead towards just being rude. I like to share things I'm interested in and I'm a very open person (as you can see above cx ) and I try to engage with my friends' interests as well. I'm not very into modern internet humour, but I can be funny on occasion :p I'm also often a bit of a hipster, to my own detriment. I can struggle to enjoy things if they seem 'too popular' in my eyes...

If you did read through this, thanks! hugs Feel free to try to talk to me anytime! Making friends is nice... (but also if you try to add me on steam I will probably assume you are a scammer and block you unless we have a mutual friend xd)
