| Introduction | I'm in my mid-twenties and about to move across the country to begin graduate school in philosophy. I am chronically, tediously dissatisfied with myself and my life, and want very, very much to change both so that they more closely resemble the archetypes I've been carrying around in my head for years. If you are reading this blurb on my profile page, and would like an invitation to read my blog, please e-mail me. |
