My profile picture is Pete Wentz from Fall Out Boy, a screenshot from a pivotal moment in the I Don't Care music video (my favorite song lol). It was my discord pfp because I love him and he's my favorite person ever, so I figured it would be good to have consistency between discord/scioly.org, and because it captures my love of Fall Out Boy! haha

I chose my profile picture because, naturally, those who are kind have the wealth of the mind. :D

I chose my pfp because black skimmers are probably like one of my favorite birds. It's like a demented toucan. The picture is kind of warped but it's all good. I think it looks cool.
