I've been watching Dan Brown on Youtube for ages, so I heard about Pogotribe or South Pole of the Moon, (or whatever you guys are calling yourselves) a long time ago. I didn't understand what it was (I still don't but that could be due to my unfamiliarity with the word "tribe")
Anyway, I finally decided to join and start off by introducing myself here.
While it's really easy to be a lurker (and have been in many situations in the past), I would like to actually interact with people here (to some extent). It's very difficult though - by posting on a forum such as this, I feel like I'm standing in public with my pants down, ripe for humiliation.
I know it's anonynous and I shouldn't be afraid, but I am anyway, especially with how some people act on the internet (unapologetically vicious) - especially on Youtube comments (and there will be a lot of Youtube people here).
Now that I've put that aside, I guess I should say a few things about myself. I live in Montreal, Quebec, though I'm originally from Nova Scotia (all in Canada for those who don't know).
My scholastic background is in science, but I'm now looking into other fields (still not sure what I want to do with my life).
I enjoy learning about and discussing various topics in politics and religion - I first started watching Dan because of his political videos.
A couple years ago I started making videos on Youtube (username Stephen5000) to put some of my ideas on a public forum (better than talking to a wall). Though now it's something I only do occasionally.
On a lighter note, I love reading and watching fantasy and sci-fi stories. I've been into children's fantasy literature in recent years (I guess Harry Potter got me into it and I never got out). I also enjoy reading manga and watching Japanese tv shows.
So, hello to everyone in the Pogotribe, and hopefully we'll all have a good time.
