About

What's the deal with your nickname? How did you get it? If your nickname is self-explanatory, then tell everyone when you first started using the internet, and what was the first thing that made you say "wow, this isn't just a place for freaks after all?" Was it a website? Was it an email from a long-lost friend? Go on, spill it.

I made this username a long long long time ago about a band called Suede (not the Smiths song). It no longer fits, and the racism connotations are weird (skinhead? ughh). So bear with me while I change my name.

1.5 gen Korean American, he/they pronouns.
