Other What's your infodump subject?

Airlines, Airplanes, Logos, Skyscrapers, old synthesizers, old tech au general, old media formats, need I go on?
 
medical science pertaining to my job esp blood bank, nomura's creations (versus xiii and kingdom hearts), most devasting historical tornadoes, the history of the original 'big three' kpop companies, stuff i learn from joe scott that is either morbid or will give you existential dread or just plain funny (would recommend on youtube, esp the astronomy ones for those who enjoy it here), and some early linguistics :) ye olde english resembles german more than modern (and shakespeare is NOT old english it is early modern english) also it's not ye, y is actually thorn Þ (th) when the printer did not have it.

edit: adding a joe scott video as an example bc this video made me realize how much we take spices for granted, this stuff was GOLD in the day!

I could definitely go on hour long rants about medicine (the practice of and literal medications), space, and various parts of history depending. I think if I were to choose a couple of historical topics, I think I would choose various European wars throughout history, the development of modern medicine, and possibly anthropology. OH, I absolutely can't forget that I practically lead a whole circle discussion about Avatar: The Last Airbender with my friends one time, so I definitely can talk forever about that as well! I think out of this list, that definitely takes the number one slot!
 
(Predictably because of the avatar) Pokemon has been my special interest since I was 5, so it's something I can and absolutely will infodump about! Especially Pokemon glitches, I can usually give a pretty detailed explanation about things. Just awhile ago I subject my friend to a long winded explanation about how to get a level 100 Pokemon before Brock in the Gen 1 games. Beta Pokemon is another niche in my brain and I could definitely give the entire development history of multiple games and summarize multiple leaks and known concept art.

I've also noticed I'll infodump about the history of the internet and the internet in general a lot. I'm a professional web developer and my boss just gives a lot of false claims about the history of the internet and to blow off steam I'll sometimes end up infodumping the correction to anyone who will listen :v
