💡My Hobbies💡
🔍Overview🔍
I have a only a few main hobbies. Those being writing (anything really), researching things (mainly history and astronomy related things), a worldbuilding project thing that I keep struggling to make any progress on, drawing maps (this means a lot of things), and video editing. I think I got them all.
📝Writing📝
I write a variety of things but my writing as of recent has been concentrated on this "2 Year Plan" thing I've been doing (I'll explain that in a later section). So basically a lot of introspective writing. So far for that I've produced 3 essays, 2 of which related to my gender/being trans and 1 about planning the 2 Year Plan. I might put them here eventually but the gender ones I'll probably have to revise if I want to do that. The Essays that I'll write in the near future will probably also be in that sort of category but I am really interested in expanding to other topics as well so I'll try to do that also in upcoming months. I have written some fiction before (for that worldbuilding project) but never got to really flesh it out and was kinda meh but had good potential. Just as small spoiler as to what I wrote,
so basically it's set on this fictional planet where a (fascist equivalent) country has taken over almost the entire planet and is causing extensive environmental degradation and whatnot and is exterminating local populations to construct a global ethnostate. BUT there is still a small glimmer of hope because some partisans still remain AND after observing the deteriorating condition an alien civilization, named the Nicans (the naming is a long story) intervenes and consilidates the partisans into a more robust fighting force in order to liberate themselves and the planet.
That's the jist of the story concept. I didn't really get a chance to write anything more but hope to in the future (when I finally get the time to🗿).
🔬Research🔬
I already explained it there's nothing more to say😴😴😴
Ok well actually I could write an entire short essay about why the fact that I feel the need to include "researching" as one of hobbies is problematic but that's a writing endeavor for another time
🌌Worldbuilding Thingyyy🌌
I don't think that I can really give a full explanation to the worldbuilding project so I'll probably create a page for this to go much more in depth into it but basically it is THE project for me. I mean I literally name the folder for it on my computer "das proyekt" which means "the project" in normal English. I named it this because it is the project which seeks to utilize all of my hobbies and skills. I mean I am literally constructing a world so it only makes sense that that would be the case, jar? Anyway I don't want to give too much of it away yet I want it to be a surprise when I manage to construct it into something coherent.
📣Those Agitprop Poster Things I Make (I forgor to mention this one)📣
I forgot to mention this in my intial list of hobbies but jar I make "agitprop posters" for fun and to motivate my self as well. You can scroll down to the bottom of the site to see an example (you'll probably have to zoom out a bit to see it fully because it's very big for some reason).
🧻Map Drawing🧻
My map drawing is kinda related to the project (das proyekt) as it's kinda how I got into worldbuilding generally. Well kinda anyway. When I say map drawing I really mean two different things. The first being drawing out entire planets with continents and rivers and countries and whatnot, which I don't really do anymore for reasons that I'll explain the next paragraph. The second being me just conjuring up really weird interesting and thought provoking border redrawings. An example can be seen below.

Admittedly not my best one but it shows the concept well enough (you can really tell I'm a big Tanzanian (inter)nationalist)
Right and as to why I don't make entirely new planet maps anymore, that's because of das proyekt. What I mean is that as I did that (draw maps of planets from scratch) I gradually became more and more obsessed with accuracy UNTIL it reached a point where I couldn't just draw up a new map willy nilly. It now require(s) hours of work just to do the plate tectonics in a really shitty software and that's even before I get to actually draw the map in detail (which is also the main reason why das proyekt is in a perpetual state of indefinite hiatus). So jar, that is probably one of my hobbies that may never come back. Or maybe it will under the 2 Year Plan!!!!!🌠🌠🌠😎😎😎 (you can read about what the 2 Year Plan is here)
🎥Video Editing
Jar, so I also video edit💩 I mostly do so for my youtube channel. I have also made videos for school projects but that wasn't a common occurence and only really happened when I lived in Japan. If you look over at my youtube channel (which has the majority of my created videos) you can see that the majority of my videos are either gameplay videos (of some sort) or announcement videos😭 And all of them are produced with what has been described as "zoomer editing" (not my words). There are also a few straight out shitpost videos which I'm 102% proud of which is in contrast to my older videos. 2 of them I found to be so bad that I had to unlist them, but I wanted to keep my growth public so I put them in a playlist to be easily accessible. Generally I think that my video editing (and general youtube skills) are getting better with time, so that's good.
As for my future plans, I intend, well more so wanted, to make the shift over to more serious videos, with the same editiing style though. Serious meaning research heavy videos, like I had one planned about Tanzania, the Soviet Union, North Korea, and the affects of nuclear war. BUT due to personal matters I have been forced to put my youtube channel (and thus my video editing endeavors) on an indefinite hiatus. But I will inevitably resume and advance my editing skills elevating to higher levels still!!!
Marvel at the agitprop I made :3
[this is the current end for this page, I might add some more stuff later though, so jar :3]
