Ahoi!
I'm not really a person for posts like this, but when I sneak into a new community I think I should do my best to apply to it's traditions and leave my first footprint.
First things first. My real name is Cedric. You can call me either by my real name or my alias hashkeks or some other nice nicknames like douche or Tröte, situationsbedingt Nulpe. I don't really remember how I came up with 'hashkeks' back in the days but for me it worked pretty good as an internet nickname and there should be some ways to interpret it - may it be in English or German.
I live in Germany, to be more precise in Baden-Württemberg in ze beautiful Black Forest. As a typical German I would never do mistakes while speaking/writing in a foreign language - especially English - so I don't really have to hide my absolutely non-existent occasional mistakes. I apologize now for future mistakes.
Speaking about my interests I think these two pictures should show them best:
My current header
A picture I took just yet
As you can see (or not see), I like:
- Plants. As much as animals. That's why I'm vegetarian.
- Music. I wake up with music and I fall asleep with it. Discovering new artists or grabbing a new vinyl or CD are one of the things that make me really happy ♪ヽ( ⌒o⌒)人(⌒-⌒ )v ♪
- Tea. Tasty water. Endless variations for every mood. Nice!
- Computers/Tech.
- Games. I'm either playing on the computer or nintendo consoles
- Politics. But mostly internet politics (is there a special word for it in English? In German it's simply 'Netzpolitik'). I'm against surveillance and think that every individual should be allowed to express himself/herself without fear of governments/corporations/social environment. We have to fight for an internet which serves us people as a source of open and free (as in speech) collective knowledge and cultural goods.
- The internet. I spent a lot of lifetime inside this massive brain full of facets one will never discover entirely. Use it's potential to express and free yourself instead of being enslaved with it.
How I found to SteemIt is a pretty simple story. As a twitter and youtube user I heard about it sometimes in the last months. I came out of curiosity and stayed for the nice community. It just feels right to be here. The content and the people here are kind of honest if you know what I mean and it's a perfect platform to discover and learn new things every day.
I think that should be enough for my first post. If you want to know more about me you can ask or look at my blog since it represents what I'm interested in here on SteemIt.
Liebe Grüße und Bussi
