I mostly do digital art and poetry with occasional forrays into other mediums/styles. I make up conlangs for fun, although I rarely get very far before being distracted, and I have a huge, Tolkein-sized story/universe in my head that has very rarely found its way to paper. I try to be as open-minded and tolerant as possible to all kinds of people and ideas (within reason), about the only thing I find really offensive is people discriminating against each other for stupid reasons like color, gender, religion, sexuality, and people trying to force their beliefs/lifestyles on other people. I am very philosophical and spend a lot of time thinking about life, the universe, and everything, mostly trying to figure out what I should (or can) believe and what path I should follow. I pretty much have no idea what I should be doing with my life. In the meantime, I'm just trying to be a good person and persue my interests (art, languages, etc.) although I feel like those are shallow goals and what I'm looking for is something more important.
