[about the site](#website)
 hoi I'm mana! I've lived for 30-something years in the USA. she/they, [sapphic](https://lgbtqia.wiki/wiki/Sapphic) [demipansexual](https://lgbtqia.wiki/wiki/Demipansexual), [gender](https://lgbtqia.wiki/wiki/Petalkitty) [is](https://lgbtqia.wiki/wiki/Cutecoric) [confusing](https://lgbtqia.wiki/wiki/Genderfae).
I'm a disabled neurodivergent NEET who has been happily married since 2011. 
I'm a multilingual audodidact, and one of my goals in life is to be able to say something in every language. Languages I have some proficiency in are English (native speaker), Japanese (self-taught), and German (studied in secondary school). I have some limited vocabulary and can construct basic sentences in Spanish and Korean and can say a few words in Italian, Russian, French, Mandarin, and Brazilian Portuguese.
I have rheumatoid arthritis, fibromyalgia, ehlers-danlos syndrome, complex ptsd, and misophonia. Before these disabilities prevented me from working, I worked in food service for ~10 yrs.

## about this website { #website }
peachmoon.moe is built with [zola](https://www.getzola.org/) (a static site generator built in rust) and hosted by [gitlab pages](https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/user/project/pages/). I write everything in [VSCodium](https://vscodium.com/). The site was first uploaded on 21 February 2024. The current layout was heavily inspired by [lost letters](https://lostletters.neocities.org/) with responsive css generated by [this css layout generator](https://layout.bradwoods.io/). [lucidiot](https://tilde.town/~lucidiot/) helped me a lot with coding, troubleshooting, and proofreading (thanks!). The strawberry border is from [fool lovers](https://foollovers.com/).
