My Very Brief Bio

Male, 33 years old. (I'm even more dead than before.)

Likes (other than writing and roleplaying): I'm into all genres of music. I love to cook. I love the outdoors, and walking through the park near my house. (Yes, really.) I read a lot of thriller/mystery novels. And I usually watch seasonal anime. (Or cooking shows. Because Western Media provides even fewer things that are worth watching.)

But as for my many other neglected hobbies, I've played basically every sport. (Soccer and Bowling being my favorite of the bunch.) And I'm trying to play more video games. (Going through my never-ending Steam library.) Plus, I've dabbled in making electronic & metal music, and I used to play a number of instruments. (Guitar, French Horn, etc.)

Hope you have a wonderful day!

@KatherinWinter Alright. Just to clarify, you don't have to have the exact same process or ideas in mind as me. If you have a particular idea, even if it conflicts with my original intentions. I can easily roll along with it. I should have something posted by tonight. Was pretty brain dead yesterday.
@KatherinWinter That's fine. If you can't think of anything for Liz to do, you can always make up some ideas for the characters or plot surrounding the characters.
To be fair, I watch no news anymore or read political stuff much. So I rarely know anything about my local politics either...

@POOHEAD189 Do you mean against? :3
@POOHEAD189 I totally get the lesser evil voting thing. You do you. I understand in how screwed up politics tends to be that's almost the default mindset for anyone who isn't blind. And I feel like those may be over generalizations. :P but I don't really want to defend Roy Moore.

@mdk Not really needed to look up. His policy opinions are incredibly vague and like...very very predictable to the point it feels like this guy has no real opinions of his own and he is in a democrat talking point hivemind. From just a cursory glance. Including not knowing how the 2nd amendment works, and thinking "background checks at gun shows" will solve any problem. And doesn't know they already exist. <.<
@POOHEAD189 It's such awful (and very racist) pandering...it's getting into Hillary Clinton "I carry hot sauce everywhere" levels. (It's not "true" either. It's not even saying "black person", it's saying specifically "black man." Which might as well be a Freudian slip with text. Does that assume that a woman would be hired in that case?) It's just stupid. Not saying Roy Moore needs to be your (or anyone's) choice. Just I wouldn't be jumping to vote for either of these people.

Policy wise, hard to find them really. But he seems to be someone who doesn't actually know anything about guns. But *shrugs*
@POOHEAD189 Oh you never saw the ad thing? This was an ad, this guy actually made. Something trying to get votes in Alabama...made this. -goodbye voters-

@POOHEAD189 Not exactly great options to pick from...both have career suicide in their sights. One for accusations up the ass, and one just being legit unbelievably out of touch with reality.
@Xandrya

(I probably shouldn't get too deep into discussion when my back is as sore as it is, distracts me from making points as well as I could.)

So you went to church since you were 8 with your family (catholic church?) and you kept going to the very same church, even though you never believed until you were 25? That seems a little strange to me, especially if you're relatively opposed to it for the whole/most of the time. I stopped going to church with my family the very first time, it got into an argument that my parents vehemently disagreed with as Christians. I guess, it's really hard to get into personal experience and faith really is just something more personal and can't really be pushed on anyone. (Though, I honestly never felt the appeal of the church either.)

I don't disagree that atheists in america treat Christianity like there's some kind of war to be won. But I feel like it's antithetical to the idea of not wanting to impose your beliefs on others. There isn't discrimination towards non-christian's in law. Honestly the idea a certain group is ruling the world and that's why they need to be taken to task, really feels like some "Jews run the world" type of stuff. Not saying that your implying such, in anyway. But I just don't see people happening to be religious, like most of Americans claim to be, automatically a problem, if no actual harm is coming from it.

I'd absolutely disagree that it's not a problem here, and if not dealt with elsewhere it certainly will become one here. (Some want sharia law in america and no go zones are starting to become a danger. For instance.)
