my name is SEOSAMH SABHRANN DÁIRE. as béarla you can call me joseph/joe. i've been trans forever and i make a million awesome things all the time.

i missed TDOV on here, oops.

• read my two comics SUPERPOSE (made with @kingfisher-cove 🖤) and BIRTH OF THE SUN

• more at 198X.love/saint-vagrant

• and more at 198X.love/hardpacker

i crunched the numbers and i've been trying to be as Joe as possible for over half my life, at least consciously— lord knows i was trying well before then, too. i conceive of my child self as a boy not because he was treated as one but because the instances in which he could be were when he was happiest, all those billions of years ago. in 2001, 2002 i felt and saw a brief flash of something while puberty fractured the timeline. between 2006-2009 i tried to and eventually found the words. started T in 2013. started changing my documents in 2014. changed my name again later. and then had surgery... in February 2025. lol.

i'm not even that old, really, but it does feel like it, clawing my way towards myself when no one wanted the same for me. as far as that goes, i regret nothing. but it's hard to come up with something big broad and uplifting! i've struggled not only to escape past abuse, but also financial insecurity, and treatment-resistant depression for most of my life, too. the things i make and do exist within and alongside this, or in windows of time where it's not as hard. i try to hope it's all been worth it. i hope i'll feel like it has been. i hope it won't always be so tiring. i hope for shelter and comfort and relief, time and patience, for me and you.

i didn't make The Vision of Escaflowne, but you can still watch it.

CIRCLE TIME!!!!

I know that realistically you can only fit so many movies into a list of approximately 100, but I cannot take that "How many of tumblr's favorite movies have you seen?" list that's been going around seriously because there are some truly egregious omissions.

Some of it is very clearly recency bias, which makes me wonder if the op truly wasn't on here in 2013 or so, but you're telling me you made a list of "tumblr's favorite movies" that doesn't include Pacific Rim or Mad Max: Fury Road? Because, like, I was there, Gandalf.

I'm a ridiculous human and genuinely couldn't sleep until I tried my hand at a better, more balanced list -- though of course, I have my own biases when it comes to what corners of this website I've lurked in over the years. For what it's worth, I did consult the last several Years In Review, while also drawing on the fact that I've been here for over a decade. But if there's anything that truly doesn't feel like it should have made the cut, blame my mutuals for putting it on my dash all the time.

(And apologies, but I couldn't seem to find Goncharov among the website's listings)
