allt's Interests
|
General |
late 20th century history (i'm mostly interested in the troubles in northern ireland and in the kosovo war), uk politics, cats, 80s and 90s music and shortwave radio (sporadically when my sleep schedule allows for that). |
|
Music |
r.e.m., talk talk, the album "ten" by pearl jam and, generally, anything you'd imagine appearing in a 40-year-old dad's fishing and grilling mix. |
|
Movies |
i'm not particularly interested in film (though, i watched "the grand budapest hotel" once and i can't say i didn't like it, so i guess that counts?) |
|
Television |
i'm not particularly interested in tv either! |
|
Books |
currently reading: "no logo" by naomi klein i'm currently awakening from a bit of a reading slump mostly through reading books about politics, but, in the past, i used to be massively obsessed with james joyce and have thus read a lot of things that are modernist and/or irish. i used to be a really big fan of irvine welsh's books as well, but after finding out certain things about him which i feel damages the integrity of his work, i'm not anymore. besides that, i love "the hitchhiker's guide to the galaxy", "waiting for godot" and "dancing at lughnasa". |
|
Heroes |
i'm too against idolising any person to really have any! |

About me:
hi! i’m allt! i'm 17, i speak russian and english and i live in cyprus. i use the pronouns he/she and i'm currently an a-level student. if you're about to ask, the two cats in my profile picture are mine (the one on the chair is called ginger and the one on the floor is called oliver). most of my interests are politics- and history-related (thanks, autism!) but i'm willing to learn about and discuss most things and, hopefully, better myself for the greater good of everyone.
Who I'd like to meet:
other leftists, other history nerds and anyone who is up for a good discussion.

hello fellow interesting person !! thank you for the add <3 I find your unique interest in listening to the radio admirable- I love when people are passionate about their own little niches !! sidenote, I hope you're enjoying said radio C: |
i live in limassol! it is not really that exciting of a place (everything seems to happen in nicosia and i absolutely understand this view as i literally wrote a blog entry the last time i went there, except for football (i do not watch any sports broadcasting, but how often support for cypruot football teams is tied to the area in which one lives in and their political stances (for example, in limassol, there are two main football teams (technically three, but the only thing i know about aris limassol is that they are owned by a russian oligarch), ael and apollon limassol, the former being associated with anti-police sentiment (i live in an “ael area” and i see a lot of acab and anarchist symbol graffiti that is drawn out of support for the club rather than any genuine political conviction (this is just sad, i know!), which i find really interesting. reminds me a little bit about how the phrase “up the ra” emerged not from the ira, but glasgow celtic fc supporters!) and the latter with right-wing bigotry), as this reminds me so much of the glasgow celtic-rangers and hibernian-heart of midlothian football rivalries in scotland (once again, i am not interested in sport, the only reason i know a lot about these is because i read a lot of irvine welsh books when i was 15), the carnival (which i am not interested in at all), the wine festival (which only tourists seem to be interested in but, hey, i wrote about it in my german exam last year!) and some radio stations), but that pleases me quite a lot. the only reason i want to leave is because i want to cut myself off from my family and that has nothing to do with the place at all.
