I'm a Progressive Leo, both sapio & demi. I value empathy, kindness, considerate & respectful reciprocal behavior, good listeners & not pointless one-sided monologues. Totally dig great conversations that are deep, thoughtful & mutual. Although I live in the central U.S. I move my profile around to make it easier to find what I'm looking for since what I want isn't in the intolerant cultural black hole where I am.
I'm a retired Metal-Punk musician, drummer, songwriter, guitarist, zine publisher. I have a couple of tomcats. We won't jive if you don't dig Metal or cats. I'm a kick ass dude with a lot to offer, a great friend that will have your back & take a bullet for my sweetie & my buddies.
Just a Gomez seeking my Morticia, haha.
I live a simple life, a music centered life, whether it's heavy music, classical, comedy, novelty, big band swing, psychobilly, Celtic, blues, Japanese percussion or any other sort of outsider music that most people roll their eyes at.
I'm also way over the age of the usual crowd that uses sites like this & don't live in a major metropolitan city. So the realistic expectation is to simply find a great online buddy, pen pal, although I'm certainly open for more. Friend requests without previous communication are a non-starter. With that said, so are flakey narcissist energy black hole serial ghosters out there who do indeed need to become self aware & go find some happiness.
There's a repeated refrain on a lot of pages here: I don't use this site, you'll need to go to this other site or download something to talk to me. NOPE. The inbox here works fine, but good luck with your trip. I prefer an upfront infodump rather than low to no effort at all, which is the norm online lately. Not my trip.
I use email & phone, not 3rd party software & there are no more good social sites. They're all for kids, not adults, so I don't care what your socials are & won't play that game. If you refuse to speak on the phone or do face-time, you're sketchy & you're hiding more than just your face & your voice.. You might drink, but I don't. Never have. If you have a low opinion of cannabis, I have a low opinion of drunks & we don't need to know each other. I don't see how it matters since no one I meet on here will live close by. Do what you want with that information.
If we do live near each other & you're younger than me, keep in mind I'm probably older than your parents. Older means older. I have health problems that you probably don't, such as stenosis, so my hiking days are long gone even though I was a grindcore drummer. I never thought I'd mellow out, but it happened. You need to be mellow & groovy as hell, haha. Bring good energy or don't bring anything.
That means no uncivilized willfully ignorant conservatards. I'm over 50 & don't have to put up with criminals like that who belong to an extremist anti-American terrorist cult. I am anti-That & I know what sort of weak fragile snowflake loser that upsets Better dead than red. Because you have failed yourself, your family & your community. Leftists only. I'm also an atheist & don't have to put up with that type of brainwashed cult member either. My background is in High Hermetic Mystery Schools. Not cμntry bumpkin dumb-assery.
No part of conservatism is compatible with a free society.
It is the antithesis of liberty & cannot exist with it.

Feel free to message, but I'll block your rascally rear if you don't put "silly wabbit" in the headline. Why? No interest at all in anyone who can't bother to read.
