As you could probably tell I'm a furry :3 my fursona's name is (Sir) Randolph Muzzicuna and I've been a furry since 2020 now. Since 2022 I'm active on Discord and that's basically the one place I talk to people.

Being autistic I have a lot of weird interests, which does make it very hard actually to find someone to talk to about those same interests. I've been musing for a long time to make a YouTube channel to talk about them and honestly, if it really keeps being like this that I can't find anyone, I'll just have to push hard on the YT front.

(I think) I'm an HSP, that is, a Highly Sensitive Person. If you don't know what that means you can look it up but basically it (high sensitivity) is a personality trait which (probably hand in hand with autism) makes me very emphathetic and feel emotions very strongly, which may mean that I may sound a little bit over the top and excessive sometimes. I'm also very sensitive in regards to interpersonal conflict so I (try to) avoid that as much as possible- it has a very averse affect on my mood and general mental health for several days after the happening. Please be patient with me and know that I basically never ever say things to be mean to people without apologizing by myself instantly after.

I can fluently speak English (non-native) as well as Italian (native). I'm passionately learning Sicilian but I still don't consider myself that good at it and I still have a LOT of areas I'm uncertain in, despite technically being a native. I am 100% for Sicilian language recognition, teaching, revival in usage, and so on- you wouldn't want me to get started on this as it's a topic I'm really passionate about x3

I'm left wing in case you're curious... also I think men are really fcking hot >w<

National Anthems. Nothing better on a summer day than sitting down to play something as your Youtube playlist full of anthems goes off on shuffle. I mostly like extremist anthems, like communist, n@zi/fascist, Soviet (SSR anthems rock!), Eastern Bloc, and other controversial ones, but contemporary ones are just as good. Also, all kinds of political music is good (propaganda!), especially if historical.

Extremist/evil/"bad guys" ideologies, their narratives and their characters (political science/politology?). This sort of connects with me liking history in general, but I take interest in studying most of the 'evil' groups/ideologies/cults I encounter or learn about. One of my favorite ones formerly, from what you could infer from the picture, is Rushism/pro-Ruzzian ideology, but I love researching and studying a lot of other topics like social Darwinism/'scientific racism', "paraphilia" (z00phile, p3dophile) ideologies, (neo-)nazism, Zionism, tankie-ism, TERFism, antikink-ism, extremist Christian queerphobia & pro-lifeism, and more. I often like to look into visual propaganda that these groups and ideologies pump out (it's stunning how visually appealing they make themselves), and connecting to the previous point, I like discovering and listening to political songs and anthems from these extremist ideologies (also often really well made and potent), although I'll have to admit that some (particularly pro-Ruzzian, 'paraphile', and nazi stuff) often make me feel a bit ill when I let my brain interact with them for way too long. My way of explaining this interest is that I'm too curious not to be educationally interested in the literal bad guys and villains in life.

Flags, geopolitics, recent history and mapping. Decided to group these four together. I love flags and can remember 80% of them by heart (people find it oddly terrifying how I can remember and tell out a flag just from memory). Geopolitics is nice, I like thinking about the relations between countries and international stuff and whatnot, and thinking about the past century, current dictatorships, and the alt hist ideas that come with that. Mapping, country shapes energize me and drawing them perfectly is satisfyinggg- I remember about 60% of them by heart.

Music. I like analyzing music (mainly anthems I like) so much, I refuse to use the methods and notations everyone else uses. I must understand everything totally, not use shortcuts devised by other people before me. So I have my own system of music notation and my own theoretical doctrine, which are both incomplete and constantly being worked on. I'm not putting anything out until I'm finished though.

Languages & Conlanging. Since the first three interests heavily involved language, it's obvious I've got to like languages. There are MANY languages that I'm obsessed with for seemingly no reason, among which Slavic, Turkic languages, and other random stuff like Afrikaans, Tajik and Mongolian. I had set it for myself that each summer I'd be studying one of these languages in this long list– first summer I did this I did Kyrgyz and enjoyed it quite a lot. I've tried to tackle Bulgarian for a while but I ended up following Russian in the end- and then stopping completely because Duolingo decided to pick up AI. Even if I don't always achieve anywhere near fluency, I find it fun. In terms of Conlanging, I'm not that big on it like many others. I just have a first conlang that over time I've picked on and off (at the time of writing it's an off).

Writing Systems and letters, particularly Cyrillic, Latin and Greek, but I also know the Armenian script. It feels really pleasant to look at the shapes in certain letters, and to write them out with perfect elegance and legibility. My non-cursive writing is in fact very orderly and regular, almost as if every character came out of a printing machine drawing each character in one specific way. I also know how to write some old letters, obviously- and sometimes I would just think in stupor about Cyrillic yat, or the fact "Ꙑ" once existed as a different rendering of "Ы" in Old Church Slavonic. I also quite like the history of these alphabets. I'd like to learn the Arabic and Khmer scripts, but I just can't get around to doing that these days.

IPA/Phonetics. Languages rely on speech sounds, and to speak a language properly you must know how to pronounce everything. So that's why I know how to pronounce even sounds I most likely won't even need to pronounce in my entire life. Not much to say about this one other than, I just know pretty much most there is to know to the theory of phonetics, ranging from anatomy, way of articulation, place, voicing, vowels, and many things. But I'm not a linguistics student, so I wouldn't say I'm exceptionally knowledgeable.

C#. I've been fiddling with C# since I was 12 and I'd consider myself proficient enough for a job in it today. I love C# and using it, and feeling smart and using inheritance with classes, and stuff. I'd use C# for gamedev one day.
