| Occupation | Darling, I'm not working. |

| Location | Cosmopolis, The State of NSK |
| Introduction | I'm a dialectical scepticist, a misanthropic humanist, and a great-godchild of Paul Ricœur's masters of suspicion. When political, I'm a conservative-liberal-socialist-radical (that's 3 parts Kolakowski, 1 part Castoriadis). Like Elif Shafak, I like being several people. I like art, and I like trash. Despite myself, I somehow got myself involved in the election. |
