One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I saw a guy throw an ordinary sewing needle through a pane glass window. It made impact with a bang, and now I'm convinced that genetically engineered borgs live among us. Or at the very least in China. And Yao Ming is just the beginning.
Teach, Learn, Share
I'm enthusiastic about the idea of breaking down teacher-student roles and the free flow of information from individual to collective. Some people say this is disrespectful, but they're the ones I never learn anything from anyway.
I enjoy sharing my ideas on language and philosophy. I'm happy to learn about real(human)politik, friendship and everything in between.
