- I am a huge fan of the Fire Emblem (FE) video game series. My website's favicon is the Crest of Riegan from the Fire Emblem: Three Houses game (IYKYK).
- I also enjoy other series like Final Fantasy [I've beat 1-6, 8, 13, 15, and Tactics Advance (1 & 2); 7 (OG and remakes) is WIP], Pokémon [in addition to console games, I love Pokémon Go], and Ace Attorney. I also enjoy games like Sudoku and Chess (unrated). I don't play games as often as I used to, but I still enjoy them casually.
- I love comedy shows, such as:
- British comedy: Taskmaster, Peep Show, The IT Crowd, WILTY, Cats Countdown, and many more.
- Sitcoms: Seinfeld, Curb Your Enthusiasm, It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia, Frasier, The Office (both US and UK), and many more.
- Cartoons: South Park, Archer, American Dad.
- I love movies, especially non-mainstream, indie, or classic ones. I am always looking for recommendations to add to my Letterboxd!
- I like listening to different genres of music. What I really love are:

These are just a few of my favourite shots taken with my Android phones (current phone: Pixel 7; previous phones: Nexus 6P, Pixel 2, Pixel 6). Most of these have been edited to some extent, but I try to retain some realism in their colours.
Random videos I really liked:
- Why Donald Glover's Atlanta Feels So Weird
Really amazing video that talks about why Atlanta is such an amazing show and explains its genre of Afro-surrealism.
- The most elegant key change in all of pop music
I was really diving into lore about the song "All By Myself", which was originally written and performed by Eric Carmen, because it borrows heavily from the 2nd movement of Rachmaninoff's Piano Concerto No. 2. This video explores Céline Dion's version of this song and how her key change is so iconic, profound, and soul-stirring.
- Sound Field (an AMAZING PBS series on YouTube):
- Spinoza: A Complete Guide to Life
- A GUIDE TO ABSURDISM: The Philosophy For Living Fully
- Training AI to Play Pokemon with Reinforcement Learning
The keywords "Pokémon" and "reinforcement learning" brought me to this video!
Random articles that stuck with me:
- Reflections on the Color of My Skin
In this article, Dr. Tyson reflects on current issues with Black discrimination from the lens of a prolific scientist. To this day, its message is still very relevant.
- For the “happy people” that suffer from bouts of depression
Wilka came to visit Brown sometime ago, and after our interactions, I stumbled upon his Medium articles. This one really stood out for me.
