BioSome things you should know about me:
- Demographically, I am...
- ...twenty-five years old, caucasian, hispanic, and male.
- ...a math/philosophy major at Spring Hill College in Mobile, Alabama.
- ...not very interesting at all.
- Ethically, I am...
- ...vegetarian with aspirations of veganism and serious thoughts on fructarianism.
- ...fervently pacifist, even to my own detriment.
- ...constantly discouraged by the evils of the world around me.
- Academically, I am...
- ...studying to be a professor of mathematics, and am specifically interested in metamathematical systems, such as mathematical logic or axiomatic set theory.
- ...in love with philosophy, and specifically in analytics, confirmation holism, skepticism, and instrumentalism.
- ...one of those weirdo autodidacts who learn by reading.
- Politically, I am...
- ...leaning radically to the left, even by European standards.
- ...economically and politically liberal, with ideals more toward a Tolstoy-style anarcho-socialism.
- ...surprisingly quite interested in Leo Strauss, Machiavelli, Plato, Aristotle, et al.
- Philosophically, I am...
- ...a strict agnostic and philosophical skepticist, with no preference toward nihlism except as justified by Occam's razor, which I am equally skeptical of in the instrumentalist sense.
- ...constantly struggling to make sense out of Hegel.
- ...ignorant.
Some links you may find interesting:
- A few of my major online services accounts include...
- ...My Flickr Account, which includes pictures of me, my friends, surroundings, and general cool pictures I'm interested in.
- ...My Wikipedia User Page, which I not only use to organize my online information in a central location, but also use for keeping wiki articles I'm interested in fully up-to-date.
- ...My OKCupid Account, which, despite outward appearances, is not just a 'dating site', but is an interesting algorithmic system for finding like-minded souls. (Plus the quizzes are interesting.)
- ...My Last.fm Account, an awesome site where you can listen to all of my favorite music.
- ...My MySpace Account, which I really shouldn't use, but feel like I have to for various odd reasons.
- And I highly recommend that you check out...
- ...Democracy NOW!, the best daily news available in today's world. It's not only unconnected to big media, but it gives in-depth reporting to all major issues of the day worldwide. HIGHLY recommended.
- ...The Skeptic's Dictionary. Anytime you hear about anything at all that doesn't seem quite right, check SkepDic--it's the best source for filtering through crap on the 'net.
