20-something English-speaking cis hetero white American male, stable supportive family I keep strong ties with, four-year university STEM degree, gainfully employed at a low-stress job full of people I like that affords a comfortable, reasonably above modest lifestyle, no outstanding debts, no severe health issues or crippling disibilities.

I have excellent time sense. I could set a 15min timer on the kitchen microwave, then go into another room. Often I’ll get up and walk into the kitchen just as the timer beeps. Useful, but hard to monetise. Oh, and white privilege.
