Welcome to my world.

I'm SomeGuy, 29 years old, residing in Vancouver, BC, Canada. I've studied English Literature, Chinese Martial Arts, and am currently pursuing careers in writing - possibly even in the anime industry itself.

And I work for this site.

And you should be watching Beck: Mongolian Chop Squad.
Or watching Ranma 1/2.
Or learning about the Shinsengumi.
Or planning to visit Vancouver, The Best Place On Earth (actual marketing motto).

Here at the "Smallville" page, I have my personal blog where I'll post about anything and everything. If ya need me or otherwise need to know anything from/about me, here's where I'll be.

If you're really looking for my more professional, site-type stuff, you wanna head over my "Metropolis" world.

Friday Afternoon Politics

Popped out this afternoon a bit just to run some errands. Listened to the radio. Learned something interesting.

Apparently, at present, HIV positive individuals wishing to enter the United States via the Canadian border are barred from doing so - the example was a man in November who was straight-up told by a border official, "you are not welcome here."

The joys of the old administrations, I suppose. In any case, people are realizing this isn't cool, and border cities all across both countries are having protests this Sunday. Apparently the travel ban is already pretty close to being overturned, but that's just going by what I've read these past 20 minutes.

Kinda interesting. Here's hoping it ends well.
