I have personalities with subtle differences depending on the group I’m with in person.

• My spouse - my truest self, very little to hide and keep to myself.
• Immediate family - not very personal. My family has never been very openly affectionate growing up.
• Bandmates - a little more assertive and leader-like.
• Workmates and strangers - the identity I mostly go with in public. More introverted, less talkative, and very guarded.

• Online
• Professional
• Personal

There’s large overlap with all three, with online being more of a caricature, and professional being more reserved. Personal is the baseline.

I don’t feel like there’s much difference in how I act depending on the company I’m in. The only difference I can think of is that online, I don’t care about my reputation at all, so I just say what I think - often without caveats. When I inevitably get misunderstood or mislabeled, so be it. Some random person in a different country thinking I’m something I’m not doesn’t really bother me. In real life, I just listen and nod while disagreeing in my mind. It’s usually only when I’m asked that I say what I actually think.

This is actually something I’ve been thinking about a lot as of late…

I broadly have three “identities”:

• My “IRL” identity, for work and family life and stuff.
• My “online” identity where I pretend to be a wolf-thing.
• My “spicy online” identity which… Well, it’d be rude to share. :P

I’ve been wondering how isolated to keep them… But as part of my recent plan to stop worrying about everything so much, I’m trying to not get too stressed about ways people could figure out how to “link them together”. I highly doubt that anyone is going to take the time to run my reputation through the mud. And even if they tried, I like to think we live in modern times where the fact that I look at werewolf boobs isn’t going to be that morally objectionable.

Or at least, I hope so.

I am an engineer, a father, IT staff for the family, somewhat of a coder, house maintenance person/engineer, sowing machine operator, glue operator, pest exterminator, AC maintenance staff for the household, chef… 🤔… I probably missed a few.
