Favorites
My lists here will be quite sparse compared to other people's. I generally put a lot more weight into what I consider a "favorite" before adding, so there are works and inspirational figures I probably like but aren't here simply because they didn't leave a strong enough impact.
My interests are pretty wide ranging and hard to bucket, probably from the diversity of works I was exposed to having spent most of my childhood online, in books, and in movies/games. I read pretty much everything I could get my hands on as early as 3rd grade, though it's toned down a bit now. I probably read too much in elementary, going through as much as a hundred novels a year and ending up with 5.0 diopters of nearsightedness by 7th grade (though I've trained myself to never need glasses outside of reading, even in skiing or tennis). For music, I started off more in games, world/ethnic, and (Goa)(Psy)Trance/Techno/DnB before starting to listen to film and soundtrack music as well; most often misjudge my tastes based on the first track they hear in my playlists. It's less about the genre and more if I can visualize something to music, the level of detail, and the diversity of sounds. The same goes for the films I watch - which can range from typical blockbusters to more arthouse films from other countries.
The lists are ordered by when the entries were added. I don't usually have a ranking to what I like. A grade next to the year is just to remind me of where I was at that time, not that I necessarily read it for class.

Broadway/Musical, Comedy, and Theater
Much of what I like comes from competing in speech and debate during high school. It's terribly named (also referred to as National Forensics League which is equally terrible) as it's so much more than just speech or debate. My favorite was the improvisational talks or skits, which unfortunately are never recorded. The rehearsed skits are just as incredible to do and watch though, as one person can literally play up to 20 different characters in 10 minutes. I've yet to find anything in the outside world that resembles anything close to it, even amongst world reknowned improv theaters like Second City.

2014: Wicked (Gershwin Theater, New York City)
2014: Carisa Barreca - Apes of Wrath (Second City, Chicago), hilarious switching from happy to evil at any moment.

2015: Ithamar Enriquez - Ithamar Has Nothing to Say (Second City, Los Angeles)

Visionaries/Entrepreneurs/Inventors
2013: Joshua Levine - Singlehandedly created the original electronic stock exchange called the Island, which became the basis for all existing exchanges today.
2013: Elon Musk - Paypal, Tesla, SpaceX, SolarCity. Played the 2024 election like a video game.
2014: Jetman (Yves Rossy) - Inventor who built and flies his own jetpack.
2014: James H. Simons - Mathematician, code breaker, Renaissance Technologies.
2015: Nikola Tesla - Inventor behind AC, radio... Considered a mad scientist of his time. 100 years early on wireless.
2015: George Westinghouse - Inventor and businessman who made practical many inventions such as Tesla's, built a company that spanned from electric to manufacturing and eventually purchased CBS amongst other transformations.
2015: Walt Disney - Essentially tried to create a utopia before he died, only for it to become a theme park.
2015: Lee Kwan Yew - Built Singapore from the ground up. Probably the only successful benevolent dictatorship ever due being both extremely talented and well-intentioned.
2017: P. T. Barnum - Extremely savy showman who did everything from circuses and museums to mansions and cities.
2019: J. Robert Oppenheimer - Father of the atom bomb, almost passed over because of his "lack of nobel prize" and other credentials but had extreme mastery of many subjects as a polymath from chemistry to physics etc as well as the vision/coordination for Los Alamos (responsible for such a large community being dedicated to unhindered research and science). Even discovered black holes 30 years early, but his research was just ignored.
2020: Hideo Kojima - Considered an auteur of game developers. Creates games as if directing movies and eventually wants to do both.
2022: Brit Marling - Started on films in school with Mike Cahill and Zal Batmanglij, graduated into finance before leaving it to go all-in on filmmaking with her same two friends. Personal for me because I had the opposite of intentionally going finance to then be able to pursue filmmaking with my high school friends and actually succeeding (with an AI fund to boot), only for my friends to have moved on with normal lives.
My interests are pretty wide ranging and hard to bucket, probably from the diversity of works I was exposed to having spent most of my childhood online, in books, and in movies/games.
