uh

my name is DR. BEANBERT. (yes, I am a doctor now!) i am ___________
i'm closing out a phd-shaped chapter of my life, trying to figure out what i am next
i wanna make stuff and share it with people
i'm trained to do research creating network models of social dynamics

i'm using my website as a sandbox for game development
it'll accrue random and wacky ideas over time as I practice building a world, characters, and maps
it's rapidly becoming a full idle game, so once it's playable I'll link it here

i've been working on a mobile game for a couple of years now too
it's a game where a gang of four friends use flawed powers to remake the world
it's an action rpg in an isometric world

i play and follow a lot of mobile games. here are some:

• genshin impact (currently playing)
• arknights endfield
• brawl stars (currently playing)
• honkai impact 3rd
• punishing gray raven
• honkai star rail
• zenless zone zero
• (i would love help getting into limbus company, i struggle to read)

tumblr - longer form crap
threads & bsky - shorter form crap
instagram - mostly showcasing anime art
youtube - mostly showcasing composed music

Disclosure: All writing, art, and other non-code content on my site and in my games is created manually entirely by me. I use generative AI as part of the process of coding my site and my idle web game.

I am generally not interested in engaging with people who only use arguments that sound like sound-bite dunks propogated by algorithms. I am interested in learning about and figuring out new ways of doing things and understanding others in good faith. No matter how sensical the algorithms' words are, they wouldn't feed that info to you if it would ever actually change anything.
