Physical Collecting

 This passion I have is a bit more nebulous than the other two, but hear me out. I love collecting physical objects representing the stuff I love. I collect vinyl and CDs, I have an extensive video game backlog, and I have various pieces of rare merchandise that is irreplaceable. My vinyl collection is skyrocketing over five-hundred currently, and there's more to come. Allow me to share some of my favorite parts of my collection:

 

My CDs, stacked on top of some Blu-rays that I own. 
A collection of merch from the latest Car Seat Headrest album, The Scholars, awarded to me for helping with the album rollout. 

 The next eleven images are my entire record collection (excluding The Scholars, which I was playing at the time I took the image). You can find more information about them here, on my Discogs account: Discogs

My favorite games on Steam demonstrate this well, I feel:   I love these types of emotional, resonant stories. They really call to me and reach down the well of emotions inside of me and strike gold.

Music is my biggest passion out of any of the others I have listed. Music has been one of my biggest interests since birth, and has been a constant throughout my life. I was in choir for about 12 years of my life in my schooling years, and shows like Steven Universe really fostered my enjoyment of other genres of music beyond the more traditional kinds. I was introduced to the band Car Seat Headrest in 2019, and that really jump-started serious interest in the medium beyond what's on TV or in class. Now, six years later, I have over five-hundred records collected, with more to come, and I am into a lot more artists now. (The Beach Boys are a recent obsession!) Here is a list of my favorite albums ever made:   1. Car Seat Headrest - How To Leave Town 2. Car Seat Headrest - Twin Fantasy   3. The Beach Boys - Pet Sounds 4. The Beach Boys - The Smile Sessions 5. The Cure - Disintegration 6. Talking Heads - Remain in Light 7. Depeche Mode - Violator 8. The Mountain Goats - Tallaha...
