Hi guys, my name is Alani Ryan. I’ve blogged before but this format is a strange new world for me. A little bit about myself, I was born in New Zealand, raised in Hawaii where I have lived most of my life, was gonna be a professional surfer then -- Surprise! I’m a mutant! I’m an MRA (Mutants Rights Activist, not that other MRA) and I’m doing my best. I consume too much coffee and at this point I’m pretty sure I need it to live. I have a collection of cool mugs which hold the coffee that has replaced my life blood. I like Brooklyn Nine Nine and I am under the firm belief that ice cream is the best thing to happen to this planet.

Thank you for coming to my Ted Talk, and before I open the floor for questions, look at my FAQ first:

Your enthusiasm is showing.

Alani, I'm Maya. Also 'Nica's roommate. Don't remember seeing the talk 'Nica mentioned but anyone willing to stand up and be counted is alright by me.

It's nice to meet you, Maya. Thank you for thinking that. Always glad to be counted somewhere.
