Hello! I'm Kuro!

I'm a 00 year old guy currently located in Brazil, with hopes to eventually move to the US. My pronouns are he/him, I identify as gay and aegosexual, and I'm fluent in Portuguese, English and (though I'm a bit rusty) toki pona.

My interests mostly consist of old technology such as retro game consoles and computers, (specifically the Commodore Amiga family of systems) and any and all forms of art including photography, illustrations, writing and music, though I only ever really write and take pictures, I prefer to be more of a spectator to the other arts.

But if you want me to be more specific than that...

Things I like (in no particular order)

  • Retro game consoles and computers
  • Game development
  • 3D modelling
  • Localization
  • Men
  • Virtual reality (But not in a metaverse way)
  • Old anime
  • Vocaloid
  • Visual kei
  • Linguistics
  • Touhou
  • Indie games
  • Internet history
  • Anthropology
  • Horror

Fun facts about me

  • My first console was a PS2 which I got circa 2010.
  • I made a font!
  • My favourite colours are green, purple and red.
  • My favourite Pokémon are Simisage, Chesnaught, Pancham and Pangoro, Maractus, Zangoose, Lucario, Zeraora, Midnight Licanroc and Drilbur.
  • I consciously chose and actively choose to spell things the British way, this is self afflicted.
  • I named myself Kuro after a character from Doko Demo Issyo.
  • The 2427 part has no real meaning, I just arbitrarily chose those numbers when the username Kuro was taken on literally every website.
  • My favourite philosopher is Albert Camus.
  • I actively pay for YouTube Premium because I can't stand ads.
  • I got into web design because of a Justin Whang video.
  • When I was like 9 I broke a glass table because I leaned into it with too much force while watching The Lego Movie.
