isn’t it funny how much can change in a years time?
i still like origami
i suppose i’ll jump on the trend of qbcorders introducing themselves
hello i’m jason. no my last name is not mrrown (tho someone has thought that before!). i don’t remember the exact origin of how the name jason mrrown came about but i believe it was related to how i love cats. i don’t own any pets, tho i do hope i get a cat at some point in my life.
i grew up in california, went to college in the northeast majoring in biochemistry, graduated in 2024, and am now living in the DC area. i’m applying for graduate school this fall so soon enough i’ll be moving to a different location.
like ash and carbonated, my home community is qbcord. apparently my first qbcord game was in 2021, but i think i only really felt like part of the community around 2023 when i began signing up for more games. i’ve known of FoL’s existence for a while from arete and benguined, as well as some FoLers playing qbcord games (most notably may). a bit after speccing FAM5 i decided to join FoL (so less than a month ago). i definitely plan to play games on here at some point.
while in high school and college quizbowl (academic trivia!) took up a significant part of my headspace. quizbowl is strange in that it reinforces your prior interests and makes you feel rewarded for knowing things, while also exposing you to a bunch of cool new things that you might be interested in, but at the same time it subconsciously shapes the direction of topics you’re interested in, since by the nature of the game you’re drawn towards topics that tend to come up more in quizbowl. anyways i enjoy hearing quizbowl questions on history topics (especially pre-modern history- think ancient history and medieval european/medieval world) as well as biology and chemistry (by virtue of my major).
i think my music taste is fairly unusual (94% obscurify). i listen to very little pop music (tho i can recognize a decent number, i just might not know the song name or who it’s by). the majority of music i listen to is “soundtrack music,” meaning it’s from the soundtrack of a movie, a video game, or an anime. i used to listen to a decent amount of classical music, but that has dropped off quite a bit.
i don’t really play video games tbh, tho i am in the middle of a “hydra” playthrough of ace attorney me and some friends are doing where we play the games while doing voice acting for the characters. so far we’ve finished the first trilogy as well as the first apollo justice game and are currently in the middle of dual destinies. i also somewhat follow competitive smash ultimate and pokemon vgc on youtube.
i also play and follow basketball, and i find the strategy aspects super interesting. i’m from california so my team is the golden state warriors.
i’m not sure what my favorite movie is, but how to train your dragon (as seen by my pfp) is definitely in contention. i have yet to watch the live action remake (i really should ugh) but my expectations are naturally sky-high.
