I think the title speaks for itself. I always like hearing where people got their username from, and so what better way to learn than making a post about it?
Speaking of usernames, yours rings a bell. Do I know you from somewhere??
on the internet, nobody knows you're a dog
Anyways, the meaning of "MP" is top secret and Lily is the name I used to go by. I've used this name for nearly a decade 'cause it fits several particular criteria:
- catchy, memorable, rolls off the tongue well
- completely one of a kind
- non-indicative, not tied to any particular interest or trait of mine
(as in: not fandom-related, not hobby related like "superstartist" or related to a personality trait like, well, chimericallyCreative)
The thing is, I hardly recognize Lily as my name anymore. My name's Charlie, and I haven't gone by Lily in years, but I'm far too attached to MP-Lily as a handle to consider changing it and, more importantly, I cannot think of ANYTHING else that fits the criterion. And it used to be I'd tell people "call me Lily, not MP" but now it's the other way around. I don't mind being called MP, though.

Theos means god and "techne" is a philosophical concept that has to do with the application of practical knowledge and has various definitions under philosophers like Plato and Socrates
Basically I'm Dirking out with my username that's all
"We Dirk splinters can be pretty Machiavellian but we do actually have some fuckin' standards."
my brother made it for me when i was younger! its based off the german name for jiggypuff. i use it everywhere lol xD
i think it’s befitting of my character! of course, my character being “ah help! im jade harley but i’ve been misplaced in the wrong universe and now im mopey!” haha! weird how that works… and i can’t put my ACTUAL username because it’s always taken! it’s fine though! i’m not 13 anymore there’s no reason to hang onto it :P
i’ve started to like having a new username! “gloamfound” as like… ok well!!! i made that word up, but i didn’t make up “GLOAM” because that’s a time of day! and adding found just means you’d find something during gloam… that something would be ME or a GOLIARD! a goliard is uhm… well, wiki defines it as:
The goliards were a group of generally young clergy in Europe who wrote satirical Latin poetry in the 12th and 13th centuries of the Middle Ages. They were chiefly clerics who served at or had studied at the universities of France, Germany, Spain, Italy, and England, who protested against the growing contradictions within the church through song, poetry and performance. Disaffected and not called to the religious life, they often presented such protests within a structured setting associated with carnival, such as the Feast of Fools, or church liturgy.
so yeah! i don’t know why my text is suddenly little uhm… weird! haha! but yes this is my usernamical explanation!
see you soon! GG… out!

Telarian - to spin a web
I'm a writer and artist, I spin stories.
Cervicorn - branching like antlers
I often draw personas with antlers cause I like deer, and somewhat relate to them.
An eye for an eye makes the world go blind,
Cervine
i usually use kerokerosene to allude to both the cartoon frog and the hydrocarbon liquid. but in cases where homestuck is the topic, i use this. it's been inspired by the depressingly descent of a book, no longer human. sigh.
i may be paranoid, but no android.
Gotta rep my bad taste. If not me, who?
rng is shorthand for the username I used since I was around 8 or 9. It was long and stupid, and eventually I just shortened it to rng. thing is, rng is a very generic "gamer" name (since you know, random number generator, which is apparently a video game thing even though it's generally a computer programming thing and has fucking nothing at its base to do with games). At the beginning of college, I came up with the name malrab (first 3 letters of my name, first 3 letters of my original username), which I liked because idk it just feels like it fit me more. but i'd still been using rng for my music, so I decided to combine to two to look like a full name (Rng Malrab). It's silly and stupid but it's me and I love it.
(On some places, I also go by M. or MFullstop, which was an impulsive decision that I ended up also liking. That's why my nickname here is M. (alrab).)
