Who am I?

What am I interested in?

(or: what do I hope to put here?)

I flit from hyperfixation to hyperfixation, but my most abiding interests are:

I am mostly tech illiterate (and okay with that) and nearly close to innumerate (and rather ashamed of it.) I'm very grateful to the people who've put this cozy little protocol together - it's beyond my own ability, but the community seems outstandingly lovely and the idea of a decentralized, text-based internet makes me happy.

What am I reading right now? Here are some notes as I go through them!

Richard Seaford, "The Origins of Philosophy in Ancient Greece and Ancient India"

modest proposals

solving Challenge Rating (in two very different ways)

playing "tabletop" RPGs over Gemini, pt. 2 (and different ways people have made to play elfgames)

get an avocation

playing "tabletop" RPGs over Gemini

how to fix college admissions (add more randomness!)

thoughts on an MtG variant

replace capital markets with prediction markets

monotonic politics

how to contact me

On a midnight under the full moon, in a dedicated ritual space, sprinkle salt in a circle. Whisper the seven secret names of God, the first three of which are AUM SOPH NOT, and command me to appear. I teach some of the liberal arts.

alternatively, you can email me at oligopsosis at protonmail dot com

I also post chronological updates here

renunciation of the Devil and his works

I abjure, comminate, and anathemize all copyright over works here. I spit it out of my mouth. Please feel free to take anything I've written and copy, paste, rewrite, and improve to your heart's content; nothing would make me happier.

If you do so on the smallweb, I appreciate attribution, but it is certainly not required. If you do so on the bigweb - or, I don't know, the evening news or something - I would prefer that you NOT provide attribution, SVP! Say you forgot where it's from, or that a wise sage taught it to you, or that you thought it up yourself - after all, the only important thing is whether it's worth saying or not, not who said it.
