Biography
Some say that Schiavona emerged fully formed from inside a bottle of Arizona Iced Tea. Others say that he just appeared one day, calling into question the validity of the scientific method as it pertained to spontaneous generation. The fact of the matter is he joined Neocities in 2020, fucked around for a bit, got bored, fucked around some more, and then finally built an actual functioning website in 2024. He's a 30-something year old trans man on the Autism spectrum, and this is his site to be as absolutely nuts as he feels like being.
When not mastering webs, Schiavona plays games, and tries to do a whole lot of other creative ventures, the fruits of which can be seen on this very website. He shares his condominium with a Portulacaria afra bonsai named Leif, several stuffed toys, far too many marble run components, and a pile of shiny pebbles.
