Hi everyone, I'm Evan! I'm from Ontario, Canada. Niagara-On-The-Lake. That's wine country, arguably the napa of Canada, famous for the shaw festival, a lot of historical sites relating to the war of 1812.
I may be one of the youngest accepted applicants (20 years), and I'm kind of on the edge and in between of everything. I'm new to content creation, new-ish to TPOI, but I've put in the work of starting my channel. I'm a computer science student, yes, but I'm a curator of fashion and music and philosophical ideas first. I love and crave perspective.
Yes use me as practice for what ever rhetoric you want. Yes use me for debate purposes. Yes try and convince me of things (I'm very convinceable). Yes I will be asking a lot of questions.
I want us to think hard about our messaging strategy. What is the central message we want to get across, and what sort of movement or cultural meme do we want to contribute to. That entails being very serious about not falling into self-sabotage, onanistic in-group signalling, and working with what we have in a way that does not alienate regular people. I'm aiming to get the message across to queer leftists; a group I love, but have had to come to terms with the failures of. I think a multi-pronged approach where we all focus in on a specific demographic is a place to start. Being honest about our intentions, our mistakes, and our goals is the best way to do this.
I love baroque pop music, I've been listening to Glykeria, John Fahey, the Indigo Girls, Enya, and the world of oz, but my current favourites are The Lemon Twigs, The Cranberries, and Grimes. I'm always open to changing my mind and finding out new things. At plz, I'll be working on improving my sense of initiative, diligence, and making better use of the opportunities provided to me.
