CURRENT MISSION

to leave my mark on the world

ABOUT ME

i do a lot of cool stuff and i'm pretty talented. i regard myself as dynamic and complex. i equally relish in nerd activities and wild events.

PHILOSOPHY

I think the best view of the human mind is non-reductive physicalism or panpsychism. I think competition and utility are the driving forces behind human action. I am skeptical of anything that supposedly outstrips the bounds of language-i.e; that is that which cannot be explained by fact.
