Hey y’all, it’s been a while! I’ll be working on engaging more, and I want to learn more about you! I’ll introduce myself:
Name: Ben (he/him)
Spouse: @talltbh.bsky.social
Cats: Athena and Persephone (see header, also love dogs!)
Hobbies: video games, books, kickball, vball, lifting (beginner!)

I’m smiling at the camera with grass and trees blurry in the background. I’m wearing a pendant with the goddess Athena and her owl, and a short sleeve sweater.
