1. Well I always wanted to be on talk radio for some reason, and I wanted to name it "Gio's corner" for some reason, so I make art and I make content haha...as for "giantgio" that has been my school nickname and email since I was in the 5th grade! It sticks to my being I guess.

2. Hmmm this is a tough one. My professor I had in philosophy who became my mentor and MA supervisor. He has guided me in uni and in harsh times in my life, he's travelled the world, and one of the only old school profs who really does not give AF! Like a zen master.

Everywhere I go in life I will always remember the wisdom he shared with me, and I can only hope one day I can reach something even approximating being on his level. (Wink wink

3. yes of course I care what others think, you have to, I generally think the people who say they don't are lying to themselves deep down inside. As RD Laing pointed out, that's the paradox of being a human, the other gives you your subjectivity and can also easily take it away.

4. Nothing at the moment really, I guess catching up with work but idk, that is always a struggle. I don't even know if applying to grad school and getting in would make me happy at this point, I'm just really questioning my direction so there's not real endpoint RN.

5. Hmm...idk. One life rule? I guess one life rule I trust is that you should never underestimate people's ideological self interest, or ability to be purposefully ignorant of certain things...also another would be that fallen times produce broken people, always be aware of this.

6. My dream job would, besides being a prof, get paid to do what I do now, it's actually not as extravagant of a request as a lot of other things, although Idk, I don't need a big income, I'm a simple person in terms of wants, just enough to life to produce my content.

7. There are so many fictional characters to choose from, I'd probably want to meet the shaman from the holy mountain or colonial Kurtz. Any series I watch I have this odd habit of imagining that I am one of the characters and what my role would be haha.

14. I wouldn't say I'm strictly apart of "fandoms" in terms of nerd culture, but let's say being a metalhead is a "fandom"..I genuinely hate most metal "journalism" (lol blogging), they are terrible, and the faux nihilism and edginess drives me crazy, makes me disavow metalheads.

15. To get rid of stress, I try listening to aggressive music, and I rant and rave on twitter dot com, no word of a lie, my best threads have been produced by my seething levels of anger.

To relive on day forever, oh man I don't know, Iv never had that "perfect day" moment. Possibly a day of hanging out with all my friends from my philosophy MA again in the office shooting the breeze before class, those days were filled excellent discussions.

16^...17. Hmm I judge people pretty quickly based on the circumstances and the vibes they give off and the opinions they spout, physiognomy plays a part in it as well.

18. If I was a doll/action figure, I would come with one of those collapsable tables, a little easel and paint brush, maybe a steel chair...bob Ross would basically be my wrestling gimmick haha.

19. Idk what has given me the most sadifaction, I tend to view my "accomplishments" critically as in Im never truly "finished",be it in school or art or writing, I'm always critiquing my past finished works, and the satisfaction is habitual not peak, like people enjoying my work.

22. SO MANY common misconceptions, a few: -the left has little to no power and are still these "outsider marginalized" rebels -prolifers "only care about children in the womb" -restricting "muh freedoms" is done to oppress only and not out of a higher metaphysical purpose.

28. Hmmm idk, most traumatizing momentS, perhaps losing different groups of friends for a variety of reasons, or when I f-d my leg up in grade 11 with sciatica and I could barely walk for three months. I don't have a real big one, just different struggles that are persistent.

Note: I forgot to add relatives dying like my grandfathers, especially my one grandfather on my fathers side who lived with us, he died when I was about 8-9 years old and it was the first thing that really deviatated me inside.
