PC game designer of 1990s fame, John Romero was the genius/jackanape that introduced us to Wolfenstein3D, DOOM, and Quake.
When not designing new methods of carrying out FPS carnage or dismemberment, he was attending to his rich, luxurious, flowing, hair which, given his near-rockstar status at the time, was not considered homoerotic in the least.
Then... came the infamous and career-destroying FPS-mediocrity that we remember as Daikatana.
Released three years behind schedule, and only after burning through two game engines and over one hundred employees, Daikatana effectively closed an era of PC-gaming, and signaled John Romero's fall from Godhood.
Nevertheless, John Romero's notoriety continues to live on through the power of the Internet -- and the unceasing efforts of meme humorists.

Solarpunk is a movement focused on a positive, ecological vision for a future where technology is used for human-centric and ecocentric purposes. It is a literary, artistic and aesthetic sub-genre and is also closely tied to eco-political activism. Solarpunk narratives have a distinctly positive and utopian foundation in contrast to the often dystopian visions found within other "punk" science fiction genres.
Solarpunk is a literary movement, a hashtag, a flag, and a statement of intent about the future we hope to create.
