Tänään taidan kaivaa kirjahyllystä Tacituksen Germanian: hänen kuvauksensa "fenneistä" on jollain oudolla tavalla varsin lohduttava tämän sekasortoisen ajan keskellä.

Halituksen arvosana yhteiskunnallisessa insinööriosaamisessa on heikko.. Yhtenä syynä tähän on, että sosiaalitieteet ovat ajautuneet kauas yhteiskunnan keskiöstä. Se pitää korjata.

Writing is so hard! When I delete big chunks of text, I save them to a Scrap Bits document in case I need them later. My Scrap Bits document for the current paper I'm working on is now longer than the actual paper! 😵‍💫

a tragic side of an otherwise happy childhood is that I never got to play #d&d. Completely my own fault, wasn’t brave enough to hang out with the nerdy kids. Now I’m more in touch with my own geekiness, and I guess this would be as good a time to start as any…. +

I want to hear & read art in our words. Our art.

I want to recognise & aspire to true talent. To write as wittily as Christopher Hitchens, as hauntingly as Stephan Zweig, as intoxicatingly as Nizar Qabbani, because I have honed my soul in the shape of greatness.

Not because I’ve clicked a button.
