How do you map
Is there any liability? NSA, angry exes, employer, anybody finding out that you mapped your own town?
Metal guitar, comic books, epistemologies. A lot of people write off metal as just distortion and shouting but it's a huge genre like jazz or classical without as long a history. Comics interest I stopped for awhile but got back into it and helped me learn drawing and story writing to better appreciate the artistry. Epistemologies from an interest in reading philosophy books and that was just the subtopic that always held my interest most.
I have a weird obsession with fonts. I love a good, well designed font. How it looks on the screen, how it looks in print. Nothing too gaudy or showy, but a really good League Spartan or Lato Light. (Not a fan of serifs)
Other than that, normal stuff; 3D modelling, writing, etc...
My other interest that might fall "outside the norm" is that in University, if I had continued beyond my bachelors my primary focus would have been studying the Bronze Age Collapse, and that topic still fascinates me to this day.
Edit: Oh...and spreadsheets. There's no problem in the world that can't be fixed with a well designed spreadsheet. All problems come down to data sorting.
Ayy fellow font enjoyer! I have like 50 GB of fonts, I'm a bit crazy. Honestly, Noto Sans is the greatest font out there. Looks good everywhere
I like Noto Sans. But as a Linux user it often irks me too, since every....single...language...is included in most distributions; so half of my time finding a nice font that I just installed consists of scrolling past a bajillion Noto variants.
Haha, yep. You can uninstall the other languages if you want though.
I know, I'm just really lazy!
If you hate someone, teach them to spot bad keming.
I've had several multi-year long ones:
- As a child: Stargate SG1
- Adolescent: paraphilias
- Young adult: the care of high violence risk and cluster b psychiatric inpatients
- As I'm entering middle-adulthood: western esoteric spiritual tradition and philosophy
