miscellaneous stuff
I took a few weeks off the variety-blog thing. I’m back, at least until classes start early in January. However, I’m not sure exactly what that means. I’ve recently set up a twitter account. If you are looking for my political stuff, I suspect it will move there, becoming basically a bibliography of interesting articles [...]
against big government: libertarian post round-up
It looks like YALOSU is considering starting a libertarian school newsletter. So I’m rounding up my past work on fighting governmental over-reaching, and so this is a collection of all the public work I’ve done on the subject, in chronological order, newest items on the top.

when I deliberately use punctuation in an unconventional way. That’s right. I used punctuation in an unconventional way. But it makes sense, doesn’t it?

hebrew day 1
Last few weeks, I’ve been in the process of transferring my future classes toward a major in Hebrew.
