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"
solving Challenge Rating (in two very different ways)
playing "tabletop" RPGs over Gemini, pt. 2 (and different ways people have made to play elfgames)
playing "tabletop" RPGs over Gemini
how to fix college admissions (add more randomness!)
replace capital markets with prediction markets
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
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.
