General

I'm big on space. I like Cosmology and Astronomy. Which, imo, is like the artsy side of STEM. I love love music and fashion. I'm big on a hippie way of life. Certified punk. I'm also pretty big on politics, literature, art, and, overall, media. Always been a football fan. Trust my ball knowledge is unmatched. Arsenal+BARCAAA fan. Free Palestine!! Please educate yourself. Don't always believe what the US media tells you. America lies. (Duh.) Even about things that seem like universal truths. Learn about Cuba. Learn about the Middle East. Learn about Africa and how it never seems to be released from the clutches of Imperialism. DOWN WITH IMPERIALISM!! I will talk politics and, honestly, anything on my mind here. Check it out, you might learn smth. If you don't you might teach me.
