Bio
Admin of the Swingset.Social instance!
... also I'm queer, mexican-american, nonmonogamous, and working hard on rediscovering and easing back into my center.
* Host of Life on the Swingset, The Podcast
* IT Project Management & Desktop Support... dude
* Organized and now Unionized
I follow instance admins, and instance admins are welcome to follow me! Sympathetic hugs available on request.
Not a swinger, but if being over 40 makes me an "old fucking swinger", maybe I'll own that?
