+hello, i'm aubun, or just bun for short!  
+online i often go by viceebun or monarch,  
+which i am quite fond of :3
+
+#### here's some basic info you should know:
+- prefered name: bun, aubun
+- nickname: monarch
+- pronouns: they/them
+- contact: [the big beautiful blog post!](@/blog/contact.md)
+
+now, i'd like to use this page to share some of my interests!
+
+## technology
+this has always been the big one for me. since i was young i would reach out to people's dumbphones and pda's, trying to find out what sourcery was making them work.  
+as i got older, i learned more and more about how to get computers to do the things i want.  
+  
+my distinct memory of introducing myself to the world of computer hackery at a basic level was getting the 2013 version of black mesa, at the time still a source mod, to work on my [dell lattitude d630](https://www.reddit.com/r/breakingbad/comments/wnksw/so_i_was_watching_the_season_premiere_on_my_laptop), a laptop i dearly wish i still had today.  
+  
+it ran at 10fps.  
+  
+still, doing this got my foot in the game, and from there i started to learn about windows tweaks, game mods, and my favorite going forward...
+
+### linux
+to save the longer rant for a later day, i will simply say this - the second i got familier with linux, i felt more at home than i ever had on windows.  
+
+i want to run a game server 24/7?  
+no problem.
+
+need more file storage, but don't have any more to add to my hardware?  
+network attached storage.  
+
+linux doesn't just serve to not hold me back from doing what i want, but helps and elevates me to doing anything i want.
+
+my current operating system for all of my systems is [nixos](https://nixos.org), something i also hope to write about very soon.
+
+## games
+i have always been a very big fan of video games, having grown up with a wii, a 3ds, and a lot of mario.  
+since then, i have moved to a nearly steam/gog exclusive library, with some evil games that i had to get on.. epic.
+
+i'm very sorry.
+
+regardless, i have compiled a list of many of my [favorite games](@/blog/games.md)! check it out if you'd like!

+thanks for checking out my little list! i have a very opinionated set of favorites, and will likely update this list as i find more.
+
+as of recent i have had a very strong interest in stealth-action games, ones you can play like a puzzle as well as a shooter. those for me have been:
+- [hitman world of assassination](https://store.steampowered.com/app/1659040/HITMAN_World_of_Assassination), which has occupied too much of my time
+- [half-life](https://store.steampowered.com/app/70/HalfLife), only the first one.
+- [far cry 3](https://store.steampowered.com/app/220240/Far_Cry_3), a comfort game
+- [hotline miami (1 and 2)](https://store.steampowered.com/app/219150/Hotline_Miami), the opposite of a comfort game.
+- [superhot](https://store.steampowered.com/app/322500/SUPERHOT), basically a puzzle game
+- [deus ex](https://store.steampowered.com/app/6910/Deus_Ex_Game_of_the_Year_Edition), is far more than fine, and [here's why](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bgJazjz9ZsA&t=3028s)
+
+my other favorite genre seems to be climing/platforming games, those being:
+- [peak](https://store.steampowered.com/app/3527290/PEAK), absolute peak.
+- [celeste](https://store.steampowered.com/app/504230/Celeste), also extremely frusturating, but we ball
+- [noita](https://store.steampowered.com/app/881100/Noita), like celeste but down!
+
+and of course, two of my favorite which don't fit into those categories:
+- [portal](https://store.steampowered.com/app/400/Portal). not much more to say
+- [clustertruck](https://store.steampowered.com/app/397950/Clustertruck), this one's just fun
+
+if you have any games you'd think i'd like, please get in [contact](@/blog/contact.md) with me!
