Derek @derek@laserdisc.party

Allow me to reintroduce myself.

My name is Derek. I'm an internet old-timer who lives in #Montreal, and I am the founder and admin of laserdisc.party, the video store of the fediverse (or so I like to think).

And while I do talk lots about #movies (went to grad school, wrote a thesis on The Room and Snakes on a Plane, have a film-crit website and two movie podcasts), I'm just as likely to talk about #music, #mtg, #wrestling, and your garden variety comedic nonsense.

Welcome!

#introductions

So I had just been podcasting for two hours and I had to keep it quiet cos it's 2 AM and my grammar's not 100% but here's my contribution to #MastoVoice https://instaud.io/2QH6
