Hi there. Call me Amlux. Welcome to my site, Pantsu Prophet.

This site aims to capture everything I am and care about, which includes both things that are very serious and sober and things that are very silly and fun. Some things I'm passionate about are philosophy, religion, ecology, cinema, video games, manga/anime, and music. I like a lot of things about Japan and lived over there for 6 years (日本語でもおk), so a lot of my interests reflect this, but I'm by no means limited to weeaboo tastes alone.

Read my full bio here if you want to know more about me.

I spend most of my free time these days playing video games, watching anime, reading books or manga, listening to music, drawing, studying languages, trying to learn more about computers, and updating this site to share my interests and passions. I have active profiles on RateYourMusic, MyAnimeList, Restart Syndrome, and Goodreads, but don't tend to use them as social spaces. Feel free to add me if you want to though!

If you want to reach out to talk about anything and everything, I would LOVE to hear from you. I have a guestbook and am always happy to see comments there, but I don't reply to those. So if you would rather start a dialogue, I suggest you use one of the following methods:
*Email me at pantsuprophet@proton.me.
*Reach out on XMPP at amlux@xmpp.earth (I'm still getting used to using this).
*Add me on Discord at Amlux#6988 (Discord is teh ghey!).
I answer everyone and do my best to be prompt about it, so please don't hesitate to reach out. I love talking to like-minded individuals and making new friends, no matter what the platform. (´∇`)

I hope you will stick around and check out the different sections of the site:

UPDATES: I try to write an update of how I'm doing every month or so at the very least and give some other off-the-cuff quick updates and verbal vomit. This is the most casual and close to real-time way to keep up with me.

FOUR PILLARS: The four most important messages I have for anyone and everyone. Call them my "political" positions if you want, but they are a lot more broad and far-reaching. I suppose it's recommended to read these if you want a good idea of where I'm "coming from" on any given issue.

CINEMA/TV: I love cinema. But in recent years I've been much more prone to reflection than to seeking out constant new films to watch. But this is a hobby that I will always hold a very strong attachment towards and have a lot of things to share about.

GAMES: Unusually for my generation, I never played many games as a kid. So this is a very new hobby to me. But it is the one I put most of my time and energy into these days, to make up for lost time.

MANGA/ANIME: I used to be embarrassed that I was a weeb and kept it a secret from everyone. No longer! I feel dirty for having denied my love of 2-D girls and all the most silly, base, tasteless things about otaku culture that make it so great for so long. I will now defend everything that normalfags hate about it.

MUSIC: Music is, to me, the most subjective and truly personal of all hobbies. So it is very hard to find the right words to convey to others. I'm not a musically-inclined person myself and thus don't know a lot of technical aspects of music creation or playing. I don't like live concerts either, so I'm not involved in the world of music socially. But I know what I like.

WRITINGS: I read a lot and invariably find myself with the need to get the thoughts I obsessively ruminate on out of my head. They could be educational/explanatory, philosophical, political, sociological, art-historical, or all of the above.
