Dustin Beyette (the person)

dustin Beyette (born June 8, 1983) is a person. They are completely obsessed with music. They care a lot about their friends, and people in general.
"i like music. a lot. My account is hennessy66. The original one I had when Fandom was Wikia was dustinbeyette. I'm the person on the right, just not politically." -dustin Beyette
"I care about a lot of things that I don't see a lot of representation for, and for the effort of people not making the wrong assessment of me here are some things about me that might matter to you:"
I cannot make pages about political stuff that I'm into (or not into) for the following reason:
Fandom does not permit the following types of communities or content:
* Wikis whose main purpose is to represent a political party, advocate for or against a political ideology, or generally opine regarding political issues;
Things I Like:
Assertiveness - Tell me how you feel and what you want. Talk about yourself all the time. I like it. Let me do it back too. Let's have all of our interactions be fully honest, no games and full of fun and excitement, getting stuff done and helping others, not just who's talking.
Women (I've never been attracted to men, but gender has always been weird for me to talk about, both my own and the genders of others, and I hope that's not the case for our children. I'm a feminist and prefer the ideals of feminism and the respect of all genders and I do not like misogyny or misandry, I like ACTUAL good guys and not men who put down women. I do feel men and women and whatever else however do have to deal with abuse, and I don't think anyone should hold back when dealing with abusers. Don't be silent when you know someone was abused. Don't be silent when you know someone is abusive, regardless of gender.)
Leftism - I used to identify as a Democrat/liberal but as liberalism got less popular I looked for other political leanings, and during the time I wrote "That Was Then", I thought libertarianism could be a nice place to find like-minded people but still found a lot of anti-Greta Thunberg conservatives that felt comfortable calling themselves libertarian so it seemed confusing. Leftism, unlike liberalism or conservatism right down the list has more of the the things I've always cared about innately, and another benefit is we aren't after your guns, we're after your fascists/cryptofascists.
Cryptocurrency - Dustin has gradually been getting into cryptocurrency as they got into XYO and the Coin app.
Music albums - Double albums, single albums, this is the full meal for me, I enjoy songs but much more when they are part of a big helping.
Musical Instruments - the weirder the better, but I like instruments in general and I really like all the ways the people all over the world have made things to make music with. I really want to own an afghan rubab one day and much like Giger's work with Species and xenomorph XX121 of the alien franchise, think it's simultaneously one of the scariest looking and most beautiful looking things I've ever seen. It sounds so relaxing too.
Music History - I like going back and seeing what a band does over each decade and each album, player changes and sound changes, as well as trends in genres and looks, sounds and everything else, i'm obsessed with music. If I'm autistic (which i've thought I was since 2010, had some doubts in 2018 after learning about narcissistic abuse syndrome) music is like a permanent special interest.
Music theory (especially for music outside of the states) - I like all the different ways music can be expressed through scales and key signatures, I like the diminished scale especially, and most of my music is either written in that or the harmonic minor, but I love writing chromatic stuff, figuring out which scale it's closest to and either learning about that scale or continuing to play inside it with limited knowledge as long as it sounds good.
Musical players and composers (I love reading liner notes and going on adventures through someone's discography even if they are just a bassist of a million bands, if I like one of their bands often when I can't get enough because of limited releases and want more, i'll see what other bands they were in for more, etc.)
Polyamory (even group sex, threesomes, swingers and orgies, I don't like shaming others for their sexual conquests, even if it's with more than one partner, as long as it's not hurtful or traumatic like pedophilia and grooming, I don't believe in converting monogamous people or poly-amorous people but rather listen to what the healthy and non-abusive ones say they are into, and just being okay with sexual orientations and genders. the idea of 72 genders just tells me the same types of people that exist right now might happily find each other sooner rather than later, much like when you are musically "single" and looking for a new album or band to get into. Genres aren't the final say on what a sound of a band is called, but they certainly help in finding them) and guess what? I'm still down for monogamy too, but since I'm a switch I'd be flattered if a woman proposed to me or wanted to be proposed to.
Double Real Italians - it's an Amato's thing, they are like giant tasty edible slugs, I really wish they went national or worldwide. They got a really good thing going. The loud guy at St. John Street was always my favorite but the service and experience at all of them was always top of the line and down to earth imo.
Cannabis - especially sativas and hybrids, the Crawford, Blue Magoo, Gelato.... so many help get any job done, especially when spiked with an energy drink. King Palms are awesome! A lot of my experimenting with energy drinks and cannabis is the result of living in the states where if you have ADHD they think you also are likely to be a drug dealer, even without a single conviction. I wasn't even good at "drug wars" on my palm pilot.
Amphetamine Salts - I've only OD'd once, and when my therapist said it was like doing speed, I never did it again, I've never sold amphetamines but for some reason can't get them prescribed again, which just adds to my annoyance with the states, every job, conversation and day I've had with them taken as prescribed was a lot better, my replacement has been 3 energy drinks a day spread across 12 hours (4 hours each, with snacks or meals) and sativa cannabis. No prescription though. I don't understand nationalism in the states.
Lang's Express - I like Lang's Express-style Chinese food. I'd always get the special B
Shepard's Pie - the way my mom makes it, corn, ground beef and mashed potatoes with no clumps
Tacos - usually al pastor, but asada and pollo, carnitas.... King Taco, Ocho Mexican Grill, Chipotle, etc pretty much anyone's tacos I like except for Jack and the Box, that's like the one thing on their menu i'm like what? they are probably my favorite fast food chain, but I've never liked their tacos.
Torta Cubanas (mexican style) - minus the avocado and tomato. (Margarita's Place is just right, imo)
Civil Rights - LGBTQ, indigenous rights, Chicano rights, workers rights, I even used to stick up for capitalists, and still would as long as they aren't exploitative and abusive. I like workplaces where people get along and want to come to work, feel welcome and want to do everything they can and are paid fairly and well, and often. I don't like seeing employees or employers abused. There's way too much drama at a lot of Norms that I've visited, the feeling is there and that's why I might never eat there.
World Peace/Peace on Earth - I like a lot of world religions for what they stand for and what they do for people. I think people without religion deserve respect as well. I think this is all a long story about how the planet eventually got along. You are literally a part of it and reading it right now.
World Religions - indigenous people had beliefs, colonizers had beliefs, I've had beliefs. And as long as it's out of love, I'm willing to hear it all. What I don't like is when religion is used as an excuse to hate others.
Engineering - I like the looks of cars and planes and vehicles. I like the functionality of cars and planes and vehicles, and their individual trademarks. I like power tools and architecture. I like Subaru and Mazda and F-Zero and Flight of the Navigator and the 2006 look of the Ford Mustang. I like the F/A-18 Hornet and the drop ship from aliens and Boba Fett's vehicle, AT-STs, Speeder Bikes, Snow speeders, A-wings, B-wings, I guess the Millenium falcon's alright. I like the Naboo starfighter and chopper bikes and Kawasaki Ninjas. I love the X-Wing, and still remember making one from a box of Rice Krispies. I liked the jetpack in the Rocketeer. I like stuff that looks cool, works cool and oftentimes prefer a junk look. The way Boba Fett's ship just looks like it's made of random parts is BIG aesthetics for me. I like the engineering of weapons as well, and like guns.
Guns - my favorite is the AK-47, but I really like the ZF-1 from The Fifth Element and a lot of fictional weapons. Perfect Dark and Alien vs Predator 2 are cool cos no one dies. I don't like school shootings or mass shootings or hate crimes or excessive gun control. I like the 1911 and the M-16, the Chiappa Rhino and pretty much every gun I've ever held or fired. I was lucky enough to have a friend that brought me to the gun range and teach me how to respect the firearms. I think marginalized communities should be given equal access. I don't mind a little gun control, but I like leftism's approach to guns and weapons more than liberals and conservatives, and more than libertarians.
Movies - Dead Poets Society, Star Wars Episode 9, all of star wars, every single Star Wars show and movie I've enjoyed immensely. I like the sequel trilogy, the prequel trilogy, the original trilogy and all the shows I've seen so far. I like K2-SO and feel like as a white passing person without a white passing parent, K2-S0 is kinda like a metaphor for whatever that type of person is called. I love romance movies and comedy movies and drama films and biopics and unusual ideas, I like movies and documentaries about bands, and genres and albums and countries and religions, and fonts. I like movies about trauma, especially with good outcomes for the victims of abuse.
Talking about difficult subjects - if we can find an agreement as a species on a lot of things we all share, and find that agreement by talking about a lot of difficult subjects that keep getting passed to the next generation, I think as a planet we'll do a lot better, and find a lot more harmony in all of our religious beliefs and political beliefs. There's a lot of attention that's given to psychopaths, malignant cluster b and abusers that would be better spent on the rest of us. This can be dealt with using assertiveness and persuasion, and we really should be harsher on people who are coercive, neglectful and abusive.
Activism - I love marching with entire cities in opposition to abuse. Black lives still matter, brown lives still matter too. Black trans lives still matter, you matter. Hate and prejudice and racism need to END. Capitalism isn't the only way to do things organized, there's also socialism and communism. It's okay for people to fit into different things more comfortably. I don't like that there are bans on communist symbols. Communism isn't the enemy, authoritarianism/fascism/crypto-fascism is.

* Racism and prejudice
