Your Simpsons character
Lisa Simpson
Benjamin aligns with Lisa Simpson through his high intellectual ambition and passion for STEM, specifically his focus on “Mechanical Engineering @sheffielduni”. Like Lisa, he is a precocious overachiever who seeks to educate others, serving as a “Youth Advisor @STEMLearningUK” and running his own media company. He exhibits her signature analytical nature when critiquing “a lack of media literacy” in fandoms or explaining complex aerospace logistics, such as how “NASA/Lockheed's X-59 provides the acoustic data” for supersonic flight. Furthermore, his openness about his personal journey, including “Starting antidepressants”, mirrors Lisa’s deep emotional complexity and occasional struggle with the weight of her own awareness.
Your MBTI personality Type
ENTP
Benjamin exhibits Extroversion (E) through his active engagement in public leadership roles, such as being a “Youth Advisor @STEMLearningUK” and his desire to “tell stories” to a wide audience. His Intuition (N) is clear in his focus on future-oriented technology and abstract concepts like the “Kardashev II” scale and the “commercial viability of supersonic transport”. He shows Thinking (T) traits by prioritizing technical logic and “welding theory”, often correcting others on technicalities such as “Starlink is just using the ISO/UN standard”. Finally, his Perceiving (P) nature is visible in his “Experimenting… because why not?” attitude and his spontaneous decision to “apply for Mech Eng” after debating between different academic paths.
Some pickup lines for you
- Are you the Kardashev scale? Because you’ve definitely reached Type II in my heart, and I’m not even trying to look anywhere else.
- Forget NASA and Lockheed—I think we have enough 'acoustic data' to prove that the chemistry between us is commercially viable.
- I promise I’m not like your mate; I definitely don’t believe in the firmament, because there’s no way a ceiling could hold down how high you make me feel.
- I know you’re a mechanical engineer, but do you have any tips for 'welding theory'? I’m trying to figure out how to permanently attach myself to your weekend plans.
- I’d definitely be willing to brave a rough flight and a pilot 'dumping the plane' on the runway if it meant landing back in Sheffield with you.

This strong yet smooth experimental blend captures Benjamin’s ambitious drive toward “Kardashev II”. The gin base represents his British roots and Sheffield engineering path, while the “oat milk” adds a creamy texture reflecting his modern, Gen-Z sensibilities. Blue curaçao and silver glitter provide an aerospace aesthetic for the guy who grew up “surrounded by aerospace innovation”, while a hint of bitters acknowledges his honest journey through mental health and “starting antidepressants”. It’s a drink for someone who is “SO READY” to go supersonic.
Your Hogwarts House
Slytherin
Benjamin exhibits intense ambition and resourcefulness, traits central to Slytherin, by founding a media company and seeking a “New Media fellowship” to scale his influence. His drive is evident in his desire to reach “Kardashev II” levels of civilization and his proactive approach to leadership, such as seeking the “best platform for hiring” for his own brand. He is highly focused on status and achievement, noting it is “hard to scale something like a media company” while young, yet constantly pushing for his “dream job”. This combination of entrepreneurial spirit, self-promotion, and a clear vision for his future success makes him a quintessential Slytherin.
Your movie
Your song
Rocket Man - Elton John
Benjamin’s life is defined by a profound obsession with aerospace and the future of flight, mirroring the song's themes of space exploration and solitude. As the Chief Editor of MachSpeedHQ and a future mechanical engineer, he is constantly “Watching Boom go from a small start up to breaking the sound barrier” and tracking “the first unmanned Starship to Mars”. The song’s vulnerable core also resonates with his personal journey, as he documented “Starting antidepressants” and the emotional weight of being “nineteen” while trying to scale a media company. Ultimately, he is a “Kardashev II” dreamer whose heart is firmly in the clouds.
