ABOUT ME

Student and layabout, passionate about ideas and culture, still figuring out this life business...

PHILOSOPHY

Changes all the time! Right now, politically I'm an boring MOR social democrat. Ethically I tend to identify most with a humanist utilitarian tradition. Culturally I'll take post-modernism over modernism any day.

^^ that probably doesn't make any sense. So I'll go with CONFUSED.

Lehren, lernen, teilen

I know quite a lot about bad pulp tv/movies/comics, early-medieval European history, and the history of political philosophy. Can probably explain the intricacies of Buffy the Vampire Slayer, the spread of Christianity, or Machiavelli, without sending you to sleep.

Know very little about anything else. In general, would be extremely interested in learning more about the history, politics and culture of other countries, about other people and the way they think. It's a wide brief... but you can learn things from everyone!
