Fawkes's Interests
|
General |
I have always been entranced by mythological imaginations of technology which does not yet have solid grounds -- visions of computers yet to be.
|
Vidya | All time favorites:
|
|
Music |
Current fav:
|
|
Movies |
Once upon a time, I would only watch movies that had been influential since their release, but also weren't any older than like five years out of the theater. Now I run two distinct movie clubs where the audience decides on the movie every week, so I am beyond genre or understandable selection criteria.
|
|
Television |
Girls und Panzer, Bee & Puppycat, Regular show, infinity train, rvb, Adventure Time, SEL, boondocks, Mr. Robot, Futurama, Azumanga Daioh, the IT Crowd. |
|
Books |
I read sci-fi, fantasy, and weird pdfs I find on the internet.
|
|
Heroes |
Edward Snowden, Terry A. Davis, K, Guy Fawkes (hence the handle), every last weirdo who died in the Waco Siege, John Isidore, the Master Control Program, Lain's dad, Cloudy J, Lighter Than Some, Sgt. Avery Johnson, Al Gore, Arby of Arby's lore, Maelcum of Zion, Nemu. |

Fawkes's Blurbs
About me:
I am made of loose threads, bent pins, the magic touch, and some sheer stubbornness.
I spend a lot of time writing down that I should do things and less time doing them. For a very long time this profile bio was simple because It's hard to find the right way to explain yourself for others. I think my old intro was mostly helpful for the very few people who are me.
I'm a computer guy first, a gamer second, and a wizard third.
I try to be good, but it's hard and sometimes it feels like there's too much good to do. I try to be deliberate and contemplative, but it's hard and sometimes there's too much at hand to consider all carefully. I try to be consistent with my beliefs and actions, but it's hard and sometimes I forget my own preferences and betray them. I ask that you understand and hope that you can forgive.
I grew up with limited tools, but an environment in which I was generally allowed to do as I pleased with the tools I was given. I like to think that having to make my own fun often as a child guided the attitudes that I have towards my things today. It's rare that I don't tinker with my possessions to get them just right for me and once they are right for me, I try to repair and maintain them for as long as possible. Every time I visit my hometown my mom makes me buy new shoes because I'll wear a pair until I can't sew or glue them back together anymore.
I prefer to leave comments in public instead of using dms, as I like jumping into public conversations and having my conversations jumped into. Feels very open and welcoming to me, where leaving comments on empty profiles feels like shouting into the void sometimes.
I promise that I'm easy to talk to. I imagine that I can be kinda intimidating, but feel free to strike up conversation about any of my interests, your interests, or otherwise. To avoid feeling like I'm spamming people, I often treat commenting as a game of turns, so if you haven't gotten a comment in a while, it's because I'm trying to avoid being annoyingly chatty. Just hmu and I'll be on it.
PGP key if you need it.
Who I'd like to meet:
I'd like to meet people who want to use this site as an actual social media. I'm not here for nostalgia, nor am I here for custom css webpages (slick as fuck tho). I'm on spacehey because I legitimately believe that this iteration of social media was the healthiest we will ever get.
So add me if you think I'm cool and I'll add you back if I feel the same way. I keep my friends list small because I try to interact with my friends fairly often. This used to say daily, but that was a stick that burnt at both ends.

I see Pajama Sam in your recently-played list and I have to ask you if you've played Putt-Putt Saves The Zoo. There is an Imposing, Hairy, Very Australian car in it. I had it as a kid and found it INCREDIBLY difficult but I went back and re-played it under Steam's refund time limit and it was a breeze. This is proof that I am at least slightly smarter than I was when I was like 8. I own it as part of the same humble bundle that got me access to pajama sam's sockworks, but have not done any more than open it like twice. That said, I have a friend who can speedrun that game in less than like 5 minutes. |

Oh shit new layout? I need to dust off my fall layout soon... Cloth mother ftw. I don't want bionic eyes because I'm afraid that Big Eyeball Corp would go bankrupt and leave me with a defunct unsupported part of my body because of course Big Eyeball eyeballs communicate through a central server and after 20 years their internal domain would get sold off to some wellness guru and every morning when I wake up it'd uncontrollably load a fucking webpage that tries to sell me colloidal silver. Or it'd get bought out and all of a sudden there's BANNER ADS. |

Apparently there are two other Fawkses on SpaceHey, have you considered recruiting them to act as your back-ups? And/or defeating them to establish your dominance as the Fawkes? |

Would you rather fight a fox-sized Guy Fawkes or a Guy Fawkes-sized fox? Both of them really want to fight you. Mini Guy Fawkes has one miniature barrel of gunpowder (about the size of a soda can) and the giant fox is partial to quail eggs (none of which are big enough now that it's human-sized, which is why it's angry). |

Ok who's the funniest person that Joe Biden could be replaced with? I'm thinking Biden in a moustache and calling himself "John Bidenne" could work. (Or obviously any Dem older than him) |

I am curious as to what your most distinctive memory is about computers/what was the moment that you really got you into the things that go on, on the cyberspace. |

Re: Bee and Puppycat in your interest list: I REALLY LIKE Bee and Puppycat, like the YouTube version. But every time I've sat down and tried to watch the Netflix version I've ended up asleep. Like it just knocks me out. I wish I could watch it all the way through because it's right up my alley. To be fair I can usually get a few episodes in, and maybe I just need to watch it in batches... |
