Welcome, I am Matheson, master of this domain. I'm sure you've already seen a bit about me around the Shrine, but this is to go a bit more in detail. At my core I am a Thespian, an actor, a performer. I perform in all and any kinds of roles, but rest assured I always have centre stage. That however has taken more of a backseat position after I found my true calling as a philosopher. This being a more stoic trade than performing, took more of a molding process. Even in this, my free spirit shines through, as my favourite philosopher is Karl Marx. While I believe Communism is the perfect world and it benefits the whole, the individual part of me still tells me I'd never want it to take root in my life time. My specialty however is classical philosophy, you know, Socrates, Plato, Aristotle; I strive to be one of them. The aspects of the classical world fascinate me; war and empires, slaves and masters, language and astrology; signs and symbols make more sense to me than numbers and codes. As for my more leisurely activities, I mostly enjoy lazing about and doing not much of anything. Performing is really the only big thing I do outside of my responsibilities at the Academy. I don't play any sports, and unfortunately I can't play any instruments. I think, I don't do. I mostly read books pertaining to history or philosophy, but I also dabble in manga a bit as well. I particularly enjoy Fullmetal Alchemist; not only is it suspenseful, it also has lots of very cool symbolism and raises lots of questions about morality. I mostly watch British television like Downton Abbey and Sherlock; Masterpiece Classic is my lover. My favourite band is Maroon 5, but other than that I mostly listen to Trap. I also enjoy whatever the popular music is at the time. Thank you for taking what I'm sure is your ever so precious time to visit me here at the Shrine of Matheson. I hope you enjoyed this post and I look forward to titillating your senses with my ever enlightened views in the future. The pleasure is both mine and yours, I'm sure. Until next time, this has been your lord and master, reaching out to both the higher and the lesser of beings. Stay classy, my heathens.
