Manda

Realized that I kinda just materialized into tumblrstake so here's my official intro post.

I'm Manda (or Amanda. Mostly drop the A online but idc). My pronouns are she/her. I've been a member of the church my whole life but have recently started geting more into it. I'm autistic with all sorts of mental illnesses. I'm queer.

This is specifically a blog for things related to the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, being queer, and/or being neurodivergent, but I don't strictly stick to that. I like to share things from other denominations or religions that resonate with me. I'll occasionally share political stuff, if you don't want to see it you can block the tag. While this is a mormon blog, anyone is welcome here as long as you're respectful. My asks are open for anyone with comments or questions about anything.

A little about me!

I play the flute and piccolo. I write music and hymn arrangements sometimes. I like to read. I post art and fandom stuff (mostly keeper of the lost cities, Star wars, and death note) on my main @amethyst-planet.

I joined tumblr on my main in January last year. I found Tumblrstake in November ish. I finally decided to look at the lds and mormon tags and after scrolling past the missionary smut anime fan fiction, I found a bunch of posts with the tumblrstake and queerstake tags. I'll probably make a post about that bc it was actually a very emotional experience for me. I started following the tags on my main, followed all the popular blogs, would comment on stuff, but didn't really post or reblog things bc it was mostly an art and fandom account and a. I didn't want to just start yapping about religion to people who followed me for fan art, and b. I really just didn't want to deal with any backlash that might come from it. I joined the tumblrstake docs this last general conference and decided that I wanted to make a separate blog just for religious stuff.
