About

Welcome to my madness! I go by Riku, but my real name is Chris (I'll answer to either). I currently reside in Madison, WI, but get to Chicago so often folks tend to think I live/moved there. In my normal, everyday life, I work in Higher Education Technology as a de facto Digital Product Manager in Student Affairs. Outside, I travel, play TTRPGs, and am heavily involved in the LGBTQ+ Leather and Furry scenes.

Why a blog? Because I wanted to. In all seriousness I wanted to get whatever thoughts out of my head and on "paper" somewhere. It helps me process things, especially with my ADHD; and why not get my thoughts and ideas out there.

You'll find posts from professional to personal, spanning various topics. Fair warning, there will be some spicier topics, as I am heavily involved in the leather and kink communities, but there is a toggle to hide those posts, or blur just the images of the posts (No nudity, but some kinkwear/activities may be pictured).

Expect posts as I feel like it, but if you want to keep up with me on the day-to-day, my social links can be found at riku.gay.
