General

History, Theology, Geography. I'm a big map guy. Sci-fi & Fantasy, Writing, Playing & Running Tabletop Games. I run CoC 7th, MTraveller 2nd, DG, & CP2022/Red for my group.

Music

I'll listen to anything, I've loads of records, CDs & digital albums. I particularly like Neo-Folk, regular Folk, Punk, Rock & anything labelled "Alt". Canada has some really good "Folk-Punk"(?) artists also listen to Filk.

Books

Classical Literature, all of those famous books. I have a huge pile of them but school's been keeping me from reading most of them. (ironically.) & when I'm not being a nerd graphic novels & old sci-fi stories, like a normal person.

Heroes

The astronauts up in the ISS right now.

About me:

Who I'd like to meet:

¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Go for it whoever you are! I'd like to meet anyone, that's the fun of this site, being & meeting weirdos.
Also if you know anyone else who'd be a good match feel free to send them here too.
Drop a message whenever, I'll respond as quick as I am able. 



Also I'm super sorry but I'm kind of like, not used to talking to people. So sorry if I talk to much about myself or anything, just say if I am. I promise I'm interested in what you have to say & I'm just bad at communicating it.

HI Thanks for adding me! How did you like The Silmarillion? 💎💎💎

Report Comment



I liked it, guess I need to read Unfinished Tales now.

I really just like the idea of Gondolin, a hidden, nearly forgotten city in a mountain valley.

by Glasspug; ; Report

I just ordered the unfinished tales, I cant wait for it to get here. There's a lot of cool and creative concepts in the Silmarillion that you don't see elsewhere.

Your profile is really cool! I adore maps and history too!!! I've also been meaning to watch Cowboy Bebop but I just haven't gotten around to it yet.

Report Comment



Thank you kindly, Cowboy Bebop is one of those shows that I've watched through a few times actually, in fact it's also one of the shows I've got on physical DVD as well. Though unfortunately I've not got the movie, though I've seen it. But I suppose that's enough about it.

I'm always open to talk about history & maps, after all both of which are things i've gotten to study extensively.

Hey! You have some cool intrests, my Grandfather made maps for Geology when he was alive.

Blessings,
♰ deusvult ♰

Report Comment



These days I keep getting job offers to do geology maps, oil sands out west & stuff like that. If you're interested in making maps & following in his footsteps you should feel free to do so. One cool thing about making maps today is that you easily sound really impressive. You can say you "Work with Radar technology" & "Utilise satellite data in your job".

It's really cool, my start with maps was cute little fantasy worlds & now I'm here.

by Glasspug; ; Report

I personally want to join the Military or be a pilot. Maps are cool though, I'd love to collect them.

thanks for the add, friend. in terms of books, we're kind of the opposite lol. i don't really like many classics, and i much prefer fantasy/sci-fi. ironically, my english lit degree is keeping me from enjoying the fantasy nerd stuff!

Report Comment



That's the great question though, when fantasy becomes classic in its own right. But I'm sure we'll have plenty of books in common, at least when I get around to reading all of them. Same thing here, school prevents me from reading my book pile too.

by Glasspug; ; Report

very true! which old sci-fi novels do you like?

by sir_paladin; ; Report

Last one I read was Downbelow Station by Cherryh. It made me want to pick up the rest of the Alliance-Union series. Plus hearing the songs that she wrote/ endorsed, the community to go with it?

Of course there's older sci-fi novels to have read, but sci-fi's kind of a "young" genre (or super old depending on where you cut it.) so it's landmark works are 120 years old at most.

would you rather experience a zombie apocalypse like The Maze Runner or an alien invasion like A Quiet Place?

Report Comment



Haven't read either of those two in particular but when it comes to aliens vs zombies I think I'll go with aliens. Same reason as nuclear war, I don't live in a place important anough to be instantly atomised.
