My Letterboxd Top 4
For one reason or another, these movies really resonated with me.
Common themes I enjoy are surrealist/dreamlike aesthetics & imagery, movies that focus on queer stories and characters, and movies that can make me cry.
Here's the rest of my Letterboxd if you want to see my really really bad reviews (it's mostly just quotes I liked from the movie or if there was a hot actor I liked :P).
My Favorite Games
Video games have always been a huge part of my life. I enjoy playing them for the stories but also the mastery of getting good at playing them. Some of them I just like playing for fun!
I've got a ton more games that I like but I think these are my
all-time favorite
games. These are the ones that I keep coming back
to or have made a significant
impact on my worldview & values.
My favorite genre of video game are definitely RPGs (of all
kinds!) but I have
also come to enjoy survival horror a lot as well. I'm not very good at them but I love
fighting games too!

Hello! My name is Dan or dangus in online spaces. Welcome to my website!
My interests are video games (mainly rpgs), museums, music, ttrpgs + board games, politics, biology, space, philosophy, geography, history, art, and lots more things!
I made this website as a personal project. I want my own space on the internet that I can call my own without any of the hangups of using/relying on social media. I want to feel free to express my own views and post my own content as I want it to be. I also enjoy the challenge of learning HTML and CSS; I hope to improve my webdev skills as I continue working on this website.
I love to learn and I love when people talk my ear off about their passions! Please share what interests you with me! I find myself wanting to learn everything but not having enough time to really get deep into a subject!
