this is my first post on Steemit, so this feels like the time to introduce myself.
My name is Dennis, I was born in North Rhine-Westphalia and am currently living in Bochum and Cologne. I am 34 years old and work as a project manager and an editor for a text agency. I find deep satisfaction in writing, but the day job is what pays the bills. But, all in all, nearly everything in my professional life deals with the written word. That is something I am quite thankful for, except the countless deadlines in project management and Kafkaesque client wishes. ;)
I am an Existentialist with nihilistic traits, which does not mean, I cannot laugh or find pleasure and beauty in life. On the contrary, I love life even more, since I understood – and that is my opinion, we all make sense of this existence with our own set of beliefs – that life, in the greater picture, probably has no bigger meaning than living it. That is terrible and beautiful all the same. I think this perspective on life sums me up pretty well.
As my nickname suggests, I am interested in mythologies (ancient Greek, Roman, Northern, Egyptian) and that I love a good drink (wine, whisky [Lagavulin, Glenmorangie anyone?]). ;)
Other interests:
- (social) psychology
- sociology
- anthropology
- philosophy (stoicism, anti-natalism)
- art (Beksinski, Goya, Füssli, Blake, Magritte)
- Buddhism (not dogmatic)
- martial arts
- video games (particularly VR!)
- Classical Music, Postrock, sometimes Jazz
- Crypto Currencies (I am full of surprises, am I?)
- technology & nature
I like the psychological horror genre and watching series religiously (recently House of Cards, Mr Robot, Better Call Saul, Black Mirror, True Detective... you name them.).
I will always prefer a nice talk or a house party over a night spent in the chaotic bee-hiviness and the humidity of a disco. But at times, you might even find me enjoying that (last time: Halloween... Me and Lucille had great fun ;).
So, that is a bit about me. On Steemit, I will be posting in English and in German. Some topics just personally feel better in the English language, others more natural in German. Regarding my future posts: I am not intending to settle in a special category , but I am thinking of postings that touch more bizarre, darker or fringe themes, maybe even some entries out of a dream journal. I want to publish some fiction on here as well.
Regarding the verification of my identity: I uploaded a profile picture with myself holding a sign with some of my pseudonyms I published under written on it. If that does not suffice, I am willing to give further proof.
I will read you soon! I am curious, what's on here. A bit of everything, I guess. Many topics to dive my head in.
If you have any questions or want to connect, feel free to reply or to send me a message!
Be well and have a nice one.
Welcome to Steemit!

Hallo Dennis,
da ich erst nach Dir hier angekommen bin, kann ich Dich auch nicht willkommen heißen, aber als Bochumer muss ich Dich natürlich grüßen!

Hey,
von mir auch ein herzliches Willkommen. Ich bin auch erst gerade neu auf Steemit und schaue mich um, aber deine Interessen klingen sehr interessant und ich bin gespannt mehr von dir zu lesen, da man doch recht viel über Technik liest und ein bisschen Geisteswissenschaft kann der Plattform ja nicht schaden.
Liebe Grüße

Welcome to Steemit and good luck!
You commented to one of my post, that‘s why I am here.
Usually, newcomers get whole lists of recommendations (but you can get some by visiting other people‘s introduceyourself - so no problem!), get visited from steem bots or get invited to chats.
I‘m honestly not prepared to provide a collection of hints for newbies but three things came to my mind.
Shortly, @theaustrianguy started to post a series with excellent instructions for beginners. There are some Steemit-tips on my blog, too, but I would really recommend his series.
Second: The German community really needs more posts. As you plan to write in German, too, please take care to tag these posts with the tag #deutsch.
Third: There are Gernan speaking Steemit communities on Discord. It is beneficial to participate for many reasons. If you want to try this, I can send you the invitation link to Steemit D-A-CH. Feel free to ask. We are here to assist each other.
I decided to follow you, being curious what you will publish here. Your topics sound interesting!

Thank you very much, Martina – for your recommendations and your advice! I just followed the @austrianguy.
Yes, please. :) The invitation link would be nice!
There is a German group on Telegram as well (Steemit deutsch), but didn't know about the Diskord one. It's open, so if you're interested.
See you and thanks again. Really liked your AI article, but will look into your other topics as well :)

:) Here we go :) https://discord.gg/8SmMW9
Yes, I know that German Telegram group but only watch it.
The Discord group is doing a great effort to support newcomers, having cultivated exchange. Just drop in, look around and if you want to be part of it, introduce yourself - there is a special subchannel for introducing.
In my blog, between my own posts, I preferably resteem informations about a better use of and benefit from Steemit.
Please take note, the correct writing is @theaustrianguy
You will find many other kind and genius Steemit pioneers at the given address. I am Austrian and we have another Discord channel too, called Steemit-Austria. Many of us are on both channels.
You might be surprised how helpful it is to join and how wonderful to support each other.
Have a nice day.

Thank you! Nice to meet you. I see, you are into minimalism? Just saw the book cover and thought that it could as well be lying around at my girlfriend's flat. Greetings!

Willkommen hier! Freue mich auf Nachrichten aus NRW. Nutzt Du Deine Erkenntnisse im Rahmen der Psychologie?
Downvoting a post can decrease pending rewards and make it less visible. Common reasons:

Danke dir! Meine Erkenntnisse entspringen eher einem Laieninteresse. Sozialpsychologie war zwar Teil meines Studiums, aber Freunde von mir sind da versierter (arbeiten in der psychiatrischen Forensik) – vor allem, wenn es um die genaue Kenntnis der Krankheitsbilder geht. Nützlich, wenn man mal Rückfragen bezüglich authentischer Darstellungen hat. ;)
Beste Grüße!
