| Biography: | I was born in the early 90s and... some time after that I made this website? Also I'm autistic and semi-seriously identify as a cat. My online alias is the default Russian word for cat. "Koshka" also functions as the feminine form of cat, as opposed to the male form which is "Kot". My reasoning for using the female form is partially because it is the default one, and partially because it is meant to be a tribute to the dear female cat who was the best friend that I ever had. |
| Sex/Gender: | Male |

Feel free to get in touch if you have something to say! The best method (at least if you want a quick response) is to message me on my autism and old Internet/computing-centric IRC network: KoshkaIRC, at irc.koshka.love. My name on there is Koshka and I can be found in the main channels #speakez (unmoderated), #comicchat (Microsoft Comic Chat-specific), and # (moderated). The network's website can be found here on this same site.
I am usually around reliably from 1730-2230 EST on weekdays and most of the day on weekends. There is also an ever-growing chatbot named Markovka for you to play with. A guide to her functionality can be found here. If you are unfamiliar with IRC and unsure why you should be using it, please read my pro-IRC article for a breakdown of the many benefits of IRC and its superiority to other platforms, notably the sordid spyware platform Discord.
If IRC absolutely does not work for you, there are other, less reliable ways to get in touch with me:
