I really like fanfiction. Reading and writing it. Nobody in my life knows and I plan on keeping it that way.

    Pretty much everything from AI to Atheism to Lemmy to whatever interesting things I’m mulling over because I’m stuck disabled, living with crazy religious nutters family that have no fundamental logic skills.

      Fundamental logic skills also imply that atheism is a belief “God doesn’t exist!”

      As an upgrade, try agnosticism: “Do we have good evidence that God exists?” So far, the only argument in favor of atheism I know of is the Occam’s Razor (those manifestations of God could also be explained in other, possibly simpler ways).

    I’m obsessed with learning about particle physics and quantum mechanics. And of course slowly learning all the math that underpins it.

    I just find myself to be very curious about how the world works, in many different ways.

    It’s exhausting having to go into the defensive posture simply for saying I’m interested in a subject that is way over most people’s heads. Instantly arouses feelings of inadequacy in people. It never fails to sully the enjoyment of my passion, and create tension between friends.

    That and pro wrestling.

      It’s exhausting having to go into the defensive posture simply for saying I’m interested in a subject that is way over most people’s heads.

      It’s probably more because the ‘I’m interested in quantum mechanics’ line is such a trope of an affectation that most people can’t help but to roll their eyes.

      I’m not saying that you aren’t genuinely interested, just that that’s where it may be coming from.
